McKayla Maroney accuses FBI of lying about what she told them in the Larry Nassar sexual abuse case

McKayla Maroney joined other gymnasts in testifying about Larry Nassar’s sexual abuse to Congress.

She accused the FBI of choosing “to lie about what I said and protect a serial child molester.”

“They had legal, legitimate evidence of child abuse and did nothing,” Maroney said.

McKayla Maroney accused the FBI of lying about what she had told them while they investigated sexual abuse accusations against disgraced gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar.
“Not only did the FBI not report my abuse, but when they eventually documented my report 17 months later, they made entirely false claims about what I said,” Maroney said during her testimony before Congress on Wednesday.

Maroney’s accusations came during testimony at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing looking into the agency’s failings in the Nassar scandal. She joined three other elite gymnasts – Simone Biles, Maggie Nichols, and Aly Raisman – in testifying in front of Congress.
All four were among the hundreds of athletes who survived Nassar’s abuse, and they each alleged that the FBI, as well as USA Gymnastics and the US Olympic & Paralympic Committee, failed to adequately protect them from a child molester.
During her opening statement, Maroney detailed a number of incidents in which she says Nassar sexually abused her.
“They had legal, legitimate evidence of child abuse and did nothing,” she said.
