Lawyers questioning Michigan State's role in Larry Nassar case

OKEMOS, Mich. -- A law firm representing 12 of the women who say they were sexually assaulted by former Michigan State doctor Larry Nassar is raising concerns about potential conflicts of interest in an ongoing investigation into the university's responsibility in allowing the alleged attacks to occur.

Attorneys David Mittleman and Mick Grewal held a news conference Friday, two days after Michigan's attorney general charged Nassar with 22 new charges of first-degree sexual assault, to question why police aren't investigating whether other Michigan State employees and administrators were negligent in allowing an alleged sexual predator to remain on campus.
