Jacob Moore Is the First Male Gymnast to File a Lawsuit Against Larry Nassar
Jacob Moore has come forward as the first male gymnast to file a lawsuit against Nassar, USA Gymnastics, and Michigan State University.
According to Moore, Nassar sexually assaulted him when he sought treatment for a shoulder injury back in 2016. Nassar reportedly administered “acupuncture in his pubic area and in and around his genitalia” in the basement of the doctor’s home and also exposed Moore’s genitalia to an underage female gymnast.
Moore’s sister, Kamerin Moore, was also abused by Nassar. She delivered a victim-impact statement during Nassar’s sentencing back in January.
Moore’s lawsuit is one of over 150 other federal and state lawsuits filed against Nassar and the organizations he was affiliated with.
