The former chief of the FBI s Indianapolis Division considered applying for the head position of USA Gymnastics after he sat on sexual abuse allegations against the Indianapolis-based Olympic organization s longtime team doctor Larry Nassar in 2015.
W. Jay Abbott and other senior Indianapolis FBI officials failed to act on those allegations for at least 8 months, and later lied about doing so, according to a stinging rebuke of the FBI s handling of the case from the Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Justice.
That delay and inaction allowed Nassar to continue to practice and molest at least 100 more young athletes under the guise of medical treatment, according to an attorney for 250 Nassar survivors.

The Senate Judiciary Committee announced Thursday it will conduct an oversight hearing into the FBI’s “dereliction of duty” in its failure to properly investigate sexual abuse allegations against former Michigan State University sports doctor Larry Nassar.
The announcement comes a day after U.S. Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s office found multiple failures by FBI field offices to properly investigate the allegations against Nassar. The report said senior officials in the FBI Indianapolis Field Office “failed to respond . with the urgency that the allegations required and made fundamental errors when it did respond.”
