Settlement proposal following Larry Nasser’s sexual abuse has caused outrage among gymnasts and their families
At the end of last month Simone Biles logged into Twitter and highlighted the absurdity of the current chapter of her life. As she travelled to a USA Gymnastics training camp in order to continue preparations for the Olympic year in which she will compete for USAG and for whom any success will garner millions of dollars, she tweeted in despair about what she sees as the continued failings of USAG and its culpability in her sexual abuse: “Still want answers from USAG and USOPC [US Olympic and Paralympic Committee]. Wish they BOTH wanted an independent investigation as much as the survivors & I do. Anxiety high. Hard not to think about everything that I DON’T WANT TO THINK ABOUT!!”
