The very most

@redandbluerainbow99 spoken like a true incel

By the way I got some bad news

U are excuse making crazy maker. Trying to get out of linzer being brought up on sex abuse charges. And youe succeeding. Evet.

Amen sister

SERIOUSLY.

I completely agree. This is one of the most powerful statements I've ever heard. She IS the 5-star general and this is real power.

Ya, I know Rachael, she is a monster.

@@ctaber2011 I think you may have meant that in love, but it certainly does not sound like a complement.

Exactly

It’s up to God now.

Sidenote: I feel so so so bad for his family. All his kids literally changed their names. It’s not their shame. They did nothing wrong. But now they have to live with their dad being one of the most famous abusers of all time. A shame that’s not theirs yet they still can’t escape

I am strangely attracted to her.

@@kathieklages5439 I don't think it's strange to be attracted to a very intelligent, articulate, beautiful and brave woman.

@@dogman-fx9ub Kathie Klages is the name of the MSU coach who ignored the claims of abused girls in 97, 98, 99, and 2000. Whoever made this KZfaq profile to make this comment is sick.

That look was WE are not silence any more over 100 women under 18 yrs of age just really sick and hurtful .

Sadly I don't think that man had any actual remorse for what he did to 140 youth, only that he got caught up with by the law, and he'd bedn doing what he did for decades.

Agreed. The look toward the defense council at 26:10, when she objected... just as good

She's a lawyer

@@codyclaeys2008 I hope one day, she makes it up to judge. I KNOW the world would be such a brighter place with her on a bench.

Not really she is just jealous of man

@The Goat go back in your cave neanderthal

She is not qualified to be POTUS__ Perhaps Secretary of Gymnastics…..

@@cadaverdog1424 clearly you're late to this party was over your head...it was less about this woman n more about a certain woman that was running 4 president at the time, she was "overqualified and 'deserved' the presidency...

@@j0kim51 Watch this again, now that you are two years more mature. You said that because her words scared you. Their truth scared you. Because they made you think of the ways you mistreat and dehumanise women. I hope you are in a better place mentally now & i hope to god you haven't done a 100th of the harm Larry did.

she's worse than he is now. She uses her platform to abuse men.

​@@VinnyS9143101982 How is ranting on social media worse than molesting 100s of children? Please, enlighten me.

@@hannaheve868 because she spent 18 years of her life pontificating about how bad abuse is and calling for the man who dared abuse her to be put in prison for life. Then the minute she saw a man being abused she raced to support the abuse as fast as possible, then she participated in the abuse and she even publicly said the abuse didn’t go far enough and next time she wants more abuse and she is still to this day slandering him on social media. She will NOT leave him alone.

@@VinnyS9143101982 Who is the man being abused that you're talking about?

@@hannaheve868 Justice Kavanaugh. BUT he's not the only one. She also called college students rapists & said she was devastated that the dept of education was giving men constitutionally protected rights. THIS is a LAWYER talking

So….. Why did God allow this abuse?????

@@cadaverdog1424 man leans on his own free will and understanding .

@@cadaverdog1424 sounds like your looking for a response to something you don't believe in .

@@cadaverdog1424 Why are you asking some person on KZfaq? Why don't you ask the person who endured it, gave this speech, and invoked God and Scripture in her speech?

I loved how in that way the judge recognized Rachael’s generous spirit. Yes that is EXACTLY what I love so much about Rachael’s impact statement: there are many moments where the survivors are just on the cusp on saying something that really needs to be said but they just lack the words. Let me be clear though, I do not judge it: Though I have not been victimized in the specific way these women were, I have traumas of my own from a toxic family member. I am a 23 year old woman who has just begun to access suppressed memories and emotions of things that happened to me when I was 14 years old. I watched these women and wondered if it was a source of personal weakness that I am not ready yet to confront that family member. My mom said when it’s facing a family member, that poses a different set of challenges. She started to casually wonder if I my counselor from when I was 16 had done a better job, maybe I would have been able to discuss it then. That shook me up and I asked if people are able to talk about this stuff a lot sooner than me and have I with my timidity blocked myself from being able to heal years ago. I said “I hate to imagine maybe people talk about this stuff sooner than me and would be further down the pipe than I am.” She said “no, people wait a lot longer than you have to discuss these things.” But back to Rachael: she does so brilliantly because she leaves no stone unturned. She has gotten to the root of a lot of issues by going through some really exacting questions... which had rather damning answers. I really think it was freeing for the victims to talk, but she also presented evidence to the court in case the fragmented answers of those questions (How long has this been going on? How did this get allowed to go on? What started and perpetuated this cycle? Why did no one listen and how did it take so long for the reports to get handled correctly & taken to trial? The others are harder to identify) but she adds ethos to the claims of other women by including her own research. She lists excruciating detail and speaks in a way on behalf of victims like Larissa Boyce who she found out about because she examined the situation after a remarkable flash of intuition (I could tell he had done this before and he had developed methods of grooming) for a teen girl. There is evil going on her not just on a personal level: she points out with crystal clarity it was even bigger than that. Had Larissa’s report been handled properly, maybe none of those women would have had to be there. That’s the real tragedy in this: she reported the year I was born. Emma Ann Miller was not even born until 6 years after Larissa’s report. She is graceful but she does not beat around the bush. She holds things up in a way where you have to examine the world and the way you live and gives no out: she asked “How much is a little girl worth?” She said “if you need an outside institution to tell you that you need to take seriously the reports of sexual assault from your athletes, then you are in no position to be working with children”.

Mallory Newcomb I agree with everything you said… Also I just want to mention that there’s no way around the fact that each and every person who suffers as a victim of any level of sexual abuse… Well they each have their own set of circumstances in their family. They each have their own make up of personality and character… I guess what I’m saying is that the circumstances are so dynamic that I hope no one is hard on themselves for however long it took them to come forward. There’s just no way anyone can judge a victim in this situation because no one except them knows what they were up against.. Like you said… Some don’t even remember or realize that it happened to them until later. That’s me. I took responsibility for what happened to me all of my childhood just because the one who did it to me was only 3+ years older than me so I thought it was my fault since we were kids. I realize later that I would’ve never asked for anything that he did to me. All I wanted to do was play and have fun and be kids but he kept bringing it around to sexual things every time. I hated it. I guess I felt responsible because I didn’t tell on him. To this day I have no idea why I didn’t tell except for that I felt like I caused it somehow. So ashamed.😔 Looking back at his life… He’s passed away now… I honestly can’t think of anyone who would’ve ever touched him and sexually abused him. His life was very sheltered and he was never left alone with anyone. His mother was absolutely not that type of person at all. She was more of the type of person that didn’t believe that kind of stuff could ever even happen. All she ever did was work hard and make a great life for him. A single mom. So what could’ve happened to him? Maybe she had a boyfriend that I was too little to remember. In all my memory I don’t ever remember her having a man anywhere near her home. Once the father cheated on her and left when my cousin was a baby...I’m pretty sure she gave up on men all together. Or maybe he just randomly turned out to be an abuser. Anything is possible I guess. Some people who are abused grow up to be abusers and then there are people like you and I who fight for and advocate for victims.

brendametube What a story! Usually it does take a long time to regain all this memory... COVID didn’t help in my case but having such a productive counselor added to things. Even more has come back since I wrote that two months ago. That family member also didn’t believe me when I revealed I was harassed earlier that school year. That in a way adds to the guilt that much further. It could be that the abuser said something that made you fear the consequences of speaking up. Usually sexual abuse involves a grab for power and control. It could be that you experienced involuntary physical responses that you felt disturbed by and wished to never discuss... as children I think when we don’t understand something, we may not expect adults to understand. It’s hard to talk about what you don’t know. You are not responsible for what happened to you. It is curious that this seemed to be out of the blue because usually abusers have been victimized sexually before they become abused. But you probably already know If anything, life has a way of bringing this stuff forward even if you want to forget. I did for so long. I just didn’t understand and my mother said I didn’t have to talk about it. The problem was I had already internalized so much from that other family member. But the day of reckoning was going to come eventually. It is common for trauma reactions and memories to resurface unbidden in major milestone moments like your first time in a consensual sexual relationship or invasive medical procedures ... sometimes it’s just a set of words that sound eerily familiar and you’re like why do those words bother me so much. Those things happened for me: a life milestone and a verbal trigger unleashed a tide a memories... that like I said, life has a funny way of bringing up this stuff when you’re finally ready to deal with it. Now I understand my situation and despite being a very intelligent individual that asks a lot of questions until she can find some answers... even at 23, I’m still kind of struggling to wrap my head around it all. My brother had a great outlook when I told him all this: “be kind to yourself, you were probably doing the best you could to handle a really bad situation”. My goal is to make a lasting agreement with that statement.

😂 👏👏👏

Oh that look she shot at Larry was a mic drop all on its own. I would love to know what was going through her mind when she did that.

@@MalloryNewcomb definitely. The one look Nassar will see in his nightmares for eternity. Along with that statement.

I have watched a lot of the testimony. It’s nearly impossible to watch all of it with like 160 victims and 60 victim impact statements. The detail that gets me? No gloves. It never even needed to be a debate whether this “treatment” was real or not (not) bc had any LE asked anyone (upon them finding out of course. Michigan state had reports they covered up but the police didn’t find out until later) “did he wear gloves?” They could have come to the conclusion this had no medical validity far far sooner. And I found that out from a mom giving her victim impact statement and she was beyond right

Has a PhD in Law.(juris doctor). She Began law school at the age of 19! Definitely NOT unintelligent!

God permitted her to be abused __ Spare us the religious bs_________

@@cadaverdog1424 She herself cited Scripture in her speech. Did you not listen to her? Or are you commenting just to look for a fight? Spare us the secular BS that would render all these evils as meaningless, devoid of inherent moral content.

Enough of the god shit

@@snopesshop1903 What an invaluable comment! I'm sure the OP will listen straight away.

Amen

Whats the title of her book? Tq

@@montgomerymadronajr4519 It's called 'What is a Girl Worth?: My Story of Breaking the Silence and Exposing the Truth about Larry Nassar and USA Gymnastics.' The author says, “Who is going to tell these little girls that what was done to them matters? That they are seen and valued, that they are not alone and they are not unprotected?”

@@estellestar1473 got it. Thanks by the way:)

@@montgomerymadronajr4519I also just bought it! I’m looking forward to reading it 💜

If she was badass she'd have knocked larry out that's what I woulda done but the whole thing is fake so it's wtvr

@@nathanhiggers7186 You’re like Larry Nassau: absolutely callous in understanding what sexual abuse does to girls and boys. If you were in that position you would have been traumatized and scared.

She is not qualified_

Neither is the current one ..

Speak for yourself_ my hero is Donald Trump!!_____________________________|

Cherin Perelman that’s creepy as hell. Are you paying attention to any of this? Why the hell do you think your idea of what a woman should be should be important to a sexual assault victim?

U claimed uw was lobbying with 3 children Sounds worse then sexual. And will ve prosecuted as such.

Persistence is omnipotent.

Clifford Norton Right on.

She was never in the military __

@@cadaverdog1424 lol do you understand why they say that?

Sure. Lol. I think thats been proven 17 years ago false. Dont try it. Dont use it. Niw u took chris in that ..." fire" too.
