ESPN - Michigan judge dismisses complaints made by Larry Nassar about his sentencing hearing

The first four paragraphs in the article.

LANSING, Mich. — Larry Nassar told a circuit court judge in a letter this week that he wasn’t sure if he was mentally able to handle facing a week of comments from the women he has admitted to abusing for decades.

Nassar, 54, pleaded guilty to 10 counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct in November. Part of the plea deal allowed all of the 135 women who have accused Nassar of abusing them — many when they sought him out for medical treatment — to confront him and share their stories with the court. He wrote a six-page letter to Judge Rosemarie Aquilina this week detailing his concerns about the sentencing hearing for his mental health.

Nassar’s letter accused the judge of grandstanding and conducting a “media circus” during the hearing that started Tuesday. Nassar said the judge placed him in the witness box to face the women speaking out against him so that cameras would also be pointed in her direction. Aquilina told him he was in the witness box so that the women didn’t have to turn to address him while facing the court.

“I have to say, this isn’t worth the paper it’s written on,” Aquilina said about Nassar’s letter. “There’s no truth in here. It’s delusional.”
