In 'The Girls,' out today, former gymnast Sara Teristi says that in 1991 she was the victim of perhaps Nassar's worst crime.
Larry Nassar's crimes may be even more heinous than previously known. In her new book,
The Girls: An All-American Town, a Predatory Doctor, and the Untold Story of the Gymnasts Who Brought Him Down , out today, Abigail Pesta tells the story of the USA Gymnastics doctor's likely first victim. Sara Teristi was just 14 years old when she first encountered Nassar at Great Lakes Gymnastics in Lansing, Michigan, in 1988. For three years she suffered through his vile and abusive"medical procedures" and"treatments," including being groped and molested, because he was a doctor and she was a child.
and will spend the rest of his life behind bars. According to Pesta, many of the victims she interviewed for the book told her that Nassar"penetrated them vaginally or anally with his bare hands, while pretending to treat them." But Teristi's revelations show that the abuse went much further than people realize, hers being the second accusation of rape against Nassar.
