NEW: More than 120 victims of sex abuse by Larry Nassar call for the DOJ to release its inspector general's report into the FBI's handling of the USA Gymnastics sexual abuse scandal.
The FBI opened an investigation into Nassar in July 2015 after it received credible reports of allegations of sexual abuse of three U.S. national team gymnasts — Raisman, McKayla Maroney and Maggie Nichols.
Raisman was not contacted until 15 months after her abuse was first reported. She described the meeting in awith Savannah Guthrie of NBC News."I said, 'Why did you wait so long?'" Raisman recalled."They said, 'Oh, we wanted to wait until the Olympics were over.'" Public pressure for justice for the hundreds of Nassar victims has mounted as the fifth anniversary of the FBI referral has approached. On Monday, victims suing USA Gymnastics and the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee filed a motion protesting that certain executives with knowledge of what happened are trying to avoid having to testify.
