2018年1月底,美國密西根州蘭辛法庭判處密州州立大學運動醫師拉瑞納瑟(Larry Nassar)入獄175年,接著密西根州大校長Lou Anna Simon也辭去校長職務。而密州大學與遭受Larry Nassar性侵的332名受害人的律師團體於5月16日聯合宣布,雙方已達成和解,密州大將支付受害者共5億元賠償金,平均每位受害者將獲得128萬元賠償;這也是美國歷史上一所大學付出總額最高的性侵和解金。在此之前性侵賠償和解金額,最高紀錄是由賓州州立大學前美式足球助理教練Jerry Sandusky被法院裁定其45項罪名成立,刑期為30到60年,校方賠償33位受害人共1億900萬元。

Maroney says the group that trains U.S. Olympic gymnasts forced her to sign a confidential settlement to keep allegations of sexual abuse by the team’s doctor secret. Maroney filed a lawsuit Wednesday, Dec. 20, 2017, in Los Angeles, against the United States Olympic Committee and USA Gymnastics. The suit also seeks damages from Michigan State University, where the team’s doctor, Larry Nassar, worked for decades.
