Lawyer for alleged victims says UM doctor was 'very, very bad man'

Novi — More and more individuals, mostly male former student-athletes, are coming forward in a building University of Michigan sexual abuse case.

Attorney Parker Stinar said in a news conference Wednesday night that his firm, Denver-based Wahlberg, Woodruff, Nimmo & Sloane, is representing nearly 60 alleged victims, among them a football player from Michigan’s 1997 national championship team, another football player who went on to play professionally, and athletes from baseball, track and field, swimming, wrestling and hockey.

Stinar was joined by attorneys Michael Nimmo and Dan Sloane, and offered an update on the firm’s meeting with the university and its independent investigators from the Steptoe firm as well as the growing number of victims.
