I think he's saying Nassar was such a skilled molester that he could do it in front a a girl's mom and neither would even realize anything had happened. Like those David Blaine street magic youtubes.

The phrasing is getting at what you expect. Engler's entire tone towards the victims has been "these greedy women are crying rape to get our money". Not the first time he's said things like that.

I hope this guy gets hit by a bus.

The reason you're paying is because your school was warned about this guy many times and ignored it. Also the reason you reaches a settlement is because you didn't want years of this poo poo coming out at a trial. It was a way of protecting the school.

(WJBK) - A Michigan State University health physicist has been charged with bestiality, according to the attorney general's office.

According to officials, 51-year-old Joseph Hattey of Holt, Mich., has been charged with two counts of committing a crime against nature (bestiality).

Hattey is accused of penetrating a dog with his penis and his hand. The attorney general's office says the acts did not occur on campus or with an animal owned by MSU.

Minnesota's wrestling coach got fired a couple years back, thanks to the ever-popular (except among Athletic Directors) "snitches get stitches" policy:

quote:

The public end for Robinson began when an anonymous member of the U wrestling team reported to police April 8 that 14 teammates were using and selling 500 to 1,000 pills of Xanax on campus. The wrestler told police that Robinson knew of the situation and that he offered “amnesty” to two wrestlers if they wrote letters of apology and gave the drugs to Robinson.

According to a search warrant affidavit, Robinson met with university police officers April 12 but refused to provide them with wrestlers’ names, documents in his possession and other pertinent information. The coach said he’d provide extensive information to police in exchange for “immunity” for his athletes.

“He said [to police], ‘Listen, I’m not going to work with you,’ ” Robinson’s attorney, Ryan Kaess, said in June. “ ‘Why are you ostensibly coming after these kids? We need to help them — not hang a felony around their necks.’ ”

Robinson’s agent, James C.W. Bock, has insisted that Robinson acted appropriately. Bock has said Robinson first notified U officials, including then-interim AD Beth Goetz, of his suspicions about drug use on March 7.

The entire wrestling team was tested March 22, and according to the university investigation, Robinson asked his wrestlers the next day at a team meeting to come to him with their confessions and remaining drugs and “they would receive amnesty.”

The investigation found at least 12 wrestlers followed their coach’s instructions, but “Coach Robinson never told anyone in Athletics administration what the student athletes had self-reported.”

Robinson wrote of the testing process, and guidance he received, in closing his Aug. 30 letter to Coyle: “The [investigation] report is filled with excuses for the University’s failure to act and masks the lack of adequate policy guidance and support to assist coaches in addressing situations involving and helping student athletes with drug issues.”

In the final missive of a contentious summer, Coyle sent a letter Wednesday to Robinson, saying Robinson has “not accepted responsibility or expressed remorse for your conduct. As a result, I cannot trust you to refrain from such conduct in the future. … Coaches cannot decide to conceal knowledge of misconduct and attempt to handle matters on their own. …

“Given your conduct, your refusal to obey my directives, and your failure to accept responsibility for your actions, you can no longer continue in your position as Head Coach.”

If I know my college wrestlers, I’d guess that most of them are fairly conservative, which makes this another example of people getting hosed over by exactly the type of people they support in the Republican Party (ala some of Roy Moore’s victims)

The Iowa wrestlers actually got on stage with Trump during the election, which caused the NCAA to have a hissy.

Nassar assaulted in prison; court filing blames judge

Less than six months after he began serving time in a high-security federal prison, inmates have assaulted Larry Nassar — possibly positioning him to move to another facility.

According to court documents filed Tuesday by Nassar's attorney in Ingham County Circuit Court seeking to appeal his sentence, he was assaulted in late May within hours of being released into the general population of the United State Penitenriary, Tucson, a high-security prison in Arizona.

One of his attorneys, Malaika Ramsey-Heath of the State Appellate Defender Office in Detroit, said she was unaware of the injuries he sustained and was not sure if he would be moved to another facility. She added that he has been removed from the general population of the prison.

"It offers additional some additional protection but I don't know if it would be properly classified as solitary (confinement)," said Ramsey-Heath. She said she visited him in prison recently but they focused more on issues to appeal in his case.

Ralph Miller, a retired Bureau of Prisons employee who specialized in sex offender designations in the Designation and Sentence Computation Center, said there are two places in a federal prison where inmates live: either the general population or the Special Housing Unit.

"That's the jail within the jail: lockdown 23 hours a day and they allow them out one hour a day for recreation," Miller said.

I'm surprised there isn't a segregated population for sexual offenders, if gen pop or basically isolation are the two choices, that's pretty hosed up. Maybe that's just a state-level thing?

Then again our criminal justice system as a whole is pretty hosed up

In a real prison there's just too many sex offenders to segregate them from the rest of the population. In this case though, if they had any sense they offered him PC the second he walked in the gate.
