#6 - Larry Nassar's victims are undoubtedly heroes

Larry Nassar's victims deserve more recognition for the heroes that they are, even those who were ignored.

As previously noted in this article, Michigan State University gymnast Larissa Boyce reported Nassar's predatory behavior, and she did so back in 1997. In fact, she is the first known person to do so. However, she was ignored, interrogated, humiliated and threatened by the person she told about it. That person was Michigan State gymnastics coach Kathie Klages.

In 1998, Michigan State University softball player Tiffany Lopez also reported to her trainers that Nassar had sexually assaulted her, but no action was taken.
