Not since the Catholic Church sex abuse scandal has there been a systematic failure as wrenching and traumatic as USA Gymnastics'. Under the governing body's watch, at least 150 young women were sexually abused over a period of almost 20 years by then-USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar, who was sentenced Wednesday. "For so long, [USA Gymnastics] put medals, reputation and money over the safety of athletes," Aly Raisman told NBC Thursday. (Bustle has reached out to USA Gymnastics for a statement, but has not yet received a response. In a statement addressed to the IOC, the body said that it "supported an independent investigation" into its actions.)
