videoMore than ninety (former) gymnasts, including Olympic gymnast Simone Biles, are seeking more than $1 billion (over €931 million) in compensation from the FBI for gymnast Larry Nassar’s failure in the sexual assault case. It is said that the police reacted very reluctantly when the first signs appeared, allowing the violations to continue for several months.
