You've gotta be kidding me...

The fact this vile lady was sentenced to only 90 days' jail time in the first place was an outrage.

The appellate court's decision to vacate the sentence and its order for the trial court to dismiss all charges is an even bigger outrage.

Why should we care? She's not violent.

Let's keep bad people in jail.

I bet many former MSU gymnasts would disagree with you.

Oh she's a slimebag for sure, just not a violent criminal.

If justice worked the way you are suggesting, Trump, Flynn, Rudy, Ivanka, Kushner and Stone would be in Jail.

I remember when she got convicted and sentenced. What a piece of 💩💩💩. Why the fuck would you NOT contact the authorities?

Hoping that something in the article comes true I.e. Nessel appeals this decision to the Michigan Supreme Court, as Court of Appeals got this wrong.

I wouldn't count on Nessel - look what happened in regards to Oxford: https://www.freep.com/story/news/politi ... 971182002/

Some of the people you named should indeed be sitting in jail, TC Talks.

That said, the lady in question here turned a blind eye to the repeated sexual assaults of young women - even minors, and in fact, created an environment of fear for those who dare speak up. I am glad to see you at least agree she is a slimeball.

Exactly like what Bo did at Michigan with Anderson. Yet nothing from Michigan apologists on this board demanding Bo's name and likeness be removed from all things U of M. Anything to protect the legacy of the team, the team, the team. Save us your faux outrage over Klages.

There is plenty of hypocrisy when it comes to turning a blind eye. I just don't see white girls from privileged homes being more of a priority than other victims of abuse.

Graham - I suggest you go back and read my posts regarding the Anderson fiasco at U-M before you paint with such a wide brush.

I 100 percent agree that Bo's statue should've been removed months ago. I also strongly believe many university employees, coaches, etc. in Michigan's athletic program knew of Anderson's antics but stayed quiet because they are cowards. I include Bo in that group.

Which employees in the current leadership had anything to do with U-M when Anderson was ALIVE, let alone last employed by the university 18 YEARS ago? Nassar was arrested 5 years ago and these people are still alive. This is NOT an apple to apple comparison.

AD? Being a MICHIGAN man and connected to Bo permeates more than coaching there.

You're adding qualifiers, Matt, that were not part of my comments above. The fact of the matter is U-M institutionally failed Anderson's victims over a period of multiple decades, starting in the 70s. Current leadership failed to remove Bo's statue, for what that's worth. I guess they don't care if they kick sand in the face of Anderson's victims.

It is hard to say for certain how current leadership at U-M would've responded to the allegations against Anderson had MSU's disastrous public response (and major blowback from the general public) to the allegations against Nassar not occurred first.

Again, Moeller and Carr are alive. Bo knew, but they didn't? Come on...
