MSU’s Interim president John Engler’s comments over the weekend that he is done with investigations into the university’s handling of the Nassar sexual abuse scandal, saying school officials are “trying to go back to work,” continues Engler’s pattern of ignorance, indifference for the victims of sexual abuse. The Michigan Attorney General’s investigative report on MSU and Nassar said MSU’s “culture of indifference and institutional protection” contributed to hundreds of women and girls being sexually abused.” Engler’s comments are misleading and ignore the fact that an additional 168 survivors’ claims have not been resolved. These “Wave 2” survivors are being represented by a coalition of 39 law firms from across the country with cases pending in the Federal and State courts. Attorneys from Charfoos and Christensen sit on the executive committee of this coalition as well as the Communications and Litigation Committees. www.NassarSurvivors.com
