Former USA gymnastics team physician Larry Nassar, who was convicted of sexually assaulting athletes, was wounded multiple times in a Florida prison.

However, he survived the assault and is currently in stable condition. Sunday’s assault occurred at United States Penitentiary Coleman in Florida. During an altercation with another inmate at a federal prison, he was stabbed in the stomach and torso.

Nassar was serving decades in prison at the time of the attack for convictions in state and federal courts for sexually assaulting gymnasts, including Olympic medalists.

The U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee and USA Gymnastics were ordered to pay $380 million to the gymnasts in September 2021, after star athletes including Aly Raisman, Simone Biles, McKayla Moriarty, and Maggie Nichols testified in court about sexual abuse disguised as “medical treatments.”

Nassar was previously married to Stephanie Nassar, who filed for divorce in 2017.

What is Stephanie Nassar’s identity?

Stephanie Nassar is a physician’s assistant for paediatrics in Lansing, Michigan. She attended Michigan State University in 1992 and graduated from the University of Detroit’s Physician Assistant programme with a Master’s degree in 1999. She was Stephanie Anderson prior to her marriage to Larry.

The Sun reports that she married Larry on October 19, 1996, in East Lansing, Michigan. Sarah Klein, who knew Stephanie when she was Larry’s fiancée, was present at the wedding, as was Trinea Gonczar, another of Larry’s victims.

Stephanie’s divorce petition was submitted on January 25, 2017. Within six months, the divorce was granted. She was also awarded sole possession of the three children Larry and she had together: two daughters and a son. The ex-wife and children of Larry were absent from his sentencing and court proceedings.
