#5 - Several people and organizations failed to act (continued)

USA Gymnastics were told about Larry Nassar's sexual assault in 2015 by Maggie Nichols, Aly Raisman and McKayla Maroney. Nichols was the first to tell them, and she was not interviewed for another three weeks, and she was not even interviewed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). She was interviewed by a private investigator named Fran Sepler.

Only after Raisman and Maroney informed USA Gymnastics of what Nassar had done to them did the organization inform the FBI. At this point, Nichols had initially reported the sexual assault that she was forced to endure at the hands of Nassar five weeks prior.
