Live blog: Day 6 of ex-MSU doctor Larry Nassar's sentencing

January 23, 2018

Day six of ex-MSU and USA Gymnastics Dr. Larry Nassar's sentencing for sexual abuse begins at 9:15 a.m. Tuesday.

So far, 125 women and girls have given their victim impact statements, with at least 15 scheduled to speak, and that number is likely to increase.

On Monday, 36 survivors spoke.

Survivors have called for MSU President Lou Anna K. Simon to resign, but seven of the eight Board of Trustees members released a statement affirming their support for her position. 

However, Trustee Mitch Lyons released a statement on Jan. 20, calling for Simon's resignation.
