Summary

GYMTERNET NEWS

Our weekly roundup of the latest news stories from around the gymternet include:

Victim Impact Statements and why everyone should go to USAG meets dressed as Judge Rosemarie Aquilina.
- Mattie Larson made a big impact talking about how USAG created an abusive environment. McKenzie Wooford backed her up.
- Rachael Denhollander gave a speech to go down in the history books, "What Is A Little Girl Worth?" Who should play her in the Oscar-winning movie?
- We explain why Judge Aquilina was legally allowed to be partial so everyone can calm down.
USOC cracking down...now...suddenly. We have feelings.
- Why the Daniels Report wasn't enough.
- Aly Raisman hit the USOC back with her own demands for an independent investigation.
- We want a Truth and Reconciliation hearing with Valeri Liukin.
Congress passed Senate Bill 534 Protecting Young Victims from Sexual Abuse and Safe Sport Authorization Act. Next step is Trump's signature.
- These three voted against the bill. Feel free to vote them out of office:
  - - - Justin Amash, Michigan's 3rd congressional district
      - Thomas Massie, Kentucky's 4th congressional district
      - Mark Sanford, South Carolina's 1st congressional district
John Geddart of Twistars was suspended, then hilariously announced he is going to retire.
- He moved the gym into his wife's name, if/when he is banned by USAG, he will have to be entirely unaffiliated with the gym if the gym wants to retain its membership.
- Jessica called the police on him and it didn't go well.
MSU
- Lou Anna Simon resigned. Still no one fired at MSU except for Nassar.
- MSU produced two different Title IX investigation reports. The the version not given to the victim said Nassar was "exposing patients to unnecessary trauma…"
- Joel Ferguson, a trustee and vice-chair of the MSU board, has not stepped down. Instead he supported Simon: "There's so many more things going on at the university than just this Nassar thing."
Miss Val on radio last week said, ex-USAG President, Steve Penny, told her he let Marta get away with being abusive because she won.

The week of CRACK!
- Even Kathy Johnson had to take to Twitter to complain!
- The judges gave Alex McMurtry's upgraded DTY, doesn't stick, a 10
- The judges gave OU's beam rotation 9.9s, even Bre Showers
- Florida needed 9.925 to win, judges gave it to Baumann
- Maggie Nichols didn't get a 10 on vault, Kennedy Baker no 10 on floor
