Larry Nassar stabbed multiple times in altercation at federal prison: report

Larry Nassar, the disgraced former sports doctor who was convicted of sexually abusing female gymnasts, was reportedly stabbed multiple times during an altercation with another inmate at a Florida federal prison.

The attack occurred Sunday at United States Penitentiary Coleman in Wildwood and Nassar was in stable condition, two people familiar with the matter told The Associated Press. One person told the AP that Nassar had been stabbed in the back and the chest.

Officials at United States Penitentiary Coleman didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.

Nassar is serving decades in prison for sexually assaulting gymnasts, including Olympic medalists. He admitted sexually assaulting athletes when he worked at Michigan State University and USA Gymnastics.

He also pleaded guilty to possessing child pornography.

During victim impact statements in 2019, several athletes testified that over the course of Nassar’s more than two decades of sexual abuse they had told coaches and trainers and other adults what was occurring but it went unreported.

Nassar is likely to spend the rest of his life behind bars.

More than 150 victims spoke or submitted statements during the seven-day hearing.
