DOJ to pay Larry Nassar victims $138.7M over botched FBI probe

The U.S. Justice Department will pay $138.7 million to the victims of former USA gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar, who is currently serving up to 175 years in prison.
The Justice Department announced its settlement on Tuesday, after over 100 people accused the FBI of failing to properly act when allegations against Nassar were first brought to them in 2015.
The settlement will be distributed among 139 victims, amounting to about a million dollars each.
