Larry Nassar returns to court for second day of testimony in sexual abuse hearing

MASON, Mich. -- Former Michigan State and Olympic team doctor Larry Nassar returned to court Friday for the second of what is expected to be three days of testimony in a preliminary hearing about his alleged sexual abuse of young gymnasts.

Four girls, the oldest of whom recently turned 18 years old, testified that Nassar used his fingers to penetrate them when they visited him as minors to seek treatment for injuries they sustained while training for gymnastics.

Nassar, 53, has been charged with 25 counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct and two other counts of child pornography possession.
