GYMNASTICS : OLYMPIC STAR SIMONE BILES - - ME TOO, WAS SEXUALLY ABUSED !

- Tuesday, January 16, 2018

Edit this post

GYMNASTICS : OLYMPIC STAR SIMONE BILES - - ME TOO, WAS SEXUALLY ABUSED !

Four-Time Olympic Champion Simone Biles has dropped yet another bombshell on the ongoing sexual scandal saga that already has rocked US Gymnastics to its core.

Simone Biles @Simone_Biles, 20, - - one of the greatest gymnasts in modern history - - revealed on her Instagram, she also was sexually abused by disgraced US Olympic team doctor Larry Nassar.

Larry Nassar, 54, has been convicted of child pornography and was sentenced in December 2017 to 60 years in prison.

Also, he faces more than 140 lawsuits from female athletes he reportedly sexually abused as minors under the pretence of his "special" medical treatment.

Nassar was the national team doctor for USA Gymnastics, and was a faculty member at the Michigan State University, where he ran a clinic and a gymnastic club.

He is due to be sentenced in two sexual charges where he already pleaded guilty.

Nassar admitted he sexually abused young gymnasts under his care as far back as 1998, his victims some as young as under 13 years old.

At his hearing, Nassar apologized for his ghastly crimes, comparing them to "a match that turned into a forest fire".

Simone Biles, now the latest in the stream of Nassar's victims coming forward, was defiant in her revelations.

"This horrific experience does not define me", she declared.

"I will not let one man . . steal my love and joy", the bemedalled Olympian pointed out.
