Michigan AG: Nassar Investigation Not Suspended After All

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING LANSING, Mich. — Michigan’s attorney general on Wednesday said her communications director’s statement announcing the suspension of a nearly two-year criminal investigation into Michigan State University’s handling of complaints against serial sexual abuser Larry Nassar was “inadvertently misleading.” Attorney General Dana Nessel said in a written statement that the investigation is ongoing. “For the record, I remain deeply committed to finding the truth about who knew what about Larry Nassar at MSU.” The communications director, Kelly Rossman-McKinney, said Tuesday that investigators wanted the university to waive attorney-client privilege on more than 6,000 documents, and that they hope to interview former interim president John Engler, who took over following Simon’s resignation. She added that “the depth and breadth the university has gone to in withholding those documents only increases our fervor to obtain them.” “Let me be clear: Despite this impasse, we are committed to continuing to pursue MSU’s role in the Larry Nassar tragedy,” Nessel said in her statement. “It was humbling but an important lesson that words really do matter.. It’s important to get the message straight.” The attorney general also said her department’s report on the case was “incomplete.” “We are committed to pursuing the answers to the questions left unanswered in that report,” Nessel said.
