Dr. Larry Nassar is on trial for the sustained sexual abuse of over ONE HUNDRED young gymnasts.
To say this man is a pervert is a cruel understatement.
He is in EVERY WAY a monster.
Today he had the GALL to say listening to young women cry about the harm he had caused them was “detrimental to his mental health.”
I would hurt him if I could.
Fortunately, Judge Rosemarie Aquilina was having NONE of that.
‘Spending four or five days listening to them is significantly minor considering the hours of pleasure you’ve had at their expense and ruining their lives.’
YES.
PS he took a plea deal. He’s guilty. That’s already been established.
Day three of the Larry Nassar sentencing kicked off on a strange note Thursday, with the disgraced doctor submitting a letter to the court.
Nassar wrote in the letter that Judge Rosemarie Aquilina was conducting a ‘four-day media circus’ for her own gain, and claimed that ‘listening to impact statements is detrimental to his mental health.’
Fifty women have delivered victim impact statements at this point, and another 55 are still scheduled to speak as new women are calling the district attorney’s office to add their names to the list each day.
‘She wants me to sit in the witness box next to her for all four days so the media cameras will be directed toward her,’ Nassar wrote in his six-page, single-spaced complaint.
Really, a-hole?
You brought this on yourself, you PIECE OF SH*T.
Later in the day, the attorney general’s office read a statement on behalf of 2012 Olympian McKayla Maroney, who could not be in attendance.
There had been concern that she might not be able to speak without incurring a $100,000 fine as part of her 2016 settlement with USA Gymnastics which included a NDA that Maroney is now challenging in a lawsuit.
Judge Aquilina, who has spent the past two days individually addressing each victim after they deliver their statements in court, did the same for Nassar in the wake of his comments.
She began with a bit of a caveat however, explaining: ‘I am not a therapist. But if I was, I would not be yours.’
‘This isn’t worth the paper it’s written on, there’s no truth in there, it’s delusional,’ said Judge Aquilina, who pointed out that Nassar signed off on this when he accepted a plea deal.
‘I didn’t orchestrate this, you did,’ she reminded Nassar.
Judge Aquilina also referred to his words as ‘mumbo jumbo’ during her ten-minute response to Nassar’s mental health concerns, before pointing out that he got off easier than the women in that courtroom.
‘You may find it harsh that you are here listening. But nothing is as harsh than what your victims endured for thousands of hours at your hands,’ said Judge Aquilina.
‘Spending four or five days listening to them is significantly minor considering the hours of pleasure you’ve had at their expense and ruining their lives.’
She then noted: ‘None of this should come as a surprise to you.’
Holy CRAP. She’s REALLY not messing around.
Nassar then got even more bad news when Judge Aquilina reminded him that 125 women were offered the chance to speak and said she would extend the hearing for as long as it took for each of those victims to deliver their impact statements.
Judge Aquilina also found some time for humor while addressing Nassar’s complaint as well, with the serial predator sitting silently in the witness stand as she spoke.
‘Now this is entertaining to me,’ she said at one point, before reading from Nassar’s letter.
‘Aquilina said if I pass out she’ll have the EMTs revive me and prop me up in the witness box.’
The judge took a beat and paused before looking at Nassar and saying: ‘I suspect you have watched too much television. It’s delusional. You need to talk about these issues with a therapist and that’s not me.’
She then move don to his next grievance, reading: ‘Aquilina is allowing them all to talk. She wants me to sit in the witness box next to her for all four days so the media cameras will be directed at her.’
Judge Aquilina looked at Nassar in disbelief, before responding: ‘I don’t have a dog in this fight, sir. I didn’t want even one victim to lose their voice.’
“She’s allowing them all to talk.”
Can you EVEN with this scumbag?!
Speaking of talking… here’s what a few of his victims have had to say:
Prison isn’t good enough for this monster.
May he rot in hell.
