The father of three young women who are among the hundreds of victims who were sexually abused by Larry Nassar tried to attack the former USA Gymnastics team doctor in court Friday morning.
With two of his daughters standing by his side, Randall Margraves asked Judge Janice Cunningham if she would grant him five minutes alone in a room with Nassar as part of Nassar’s sentence. Cunningham, of course, told Margraves that could not be arranged, and he then asked for one minute alone with Nassar before trying to attack the serial child molester.

Margraves was taken out of the courtroom in handcuffs. Prosecutor Angela Povilaitis could be heard saying she wants to make it “crystal clear” that that type of behavior is not acceptable and only makes things worse, to which Margraves turned around and shouted, “You haven’t lived through it, lady.”
It’s impossible to imagine how the parents of the victims must feel. Even the judge who sentenced Nassar to 175 years in prison tore him to shreds with some powerful words, so you can certainly understand a father of three victims wanting to inflict physical harm on Nassar.
