Jordyn Wieber to Testify After Filing Suit Against MSU and USA Gymnastics in Nassar Scandal

EAST LANSING (CBS Detroit/AP) Fallout continues in wake of the Larry Nassar scandal. Olympic gold medalist Jordyn Wieber is the latest gymnast to sue Michigan State University, USA Gymnastics and the U.S. Olympic Committee over the former sports doctor's sexual abuse and today she is expected to testify.

Wieber was on the "Fierce Five" team that won gold in 2012. She filed a lawsuit in California Tuesday alleging Michigan State and former USA Gymnastics leaders hid Nassar's conduct from the public and law enforcement. She says the abuse spanned between 2006 and 2012, her medical records were destroyed, and she and her teammates "were not protected."

More than 250 women and girls say Nassar sexually assaulting them under the guise of treatment. He's now in prison.

Accusers include three other members of the 2012 team — Aly Raisman, Gabby Douglas and McKayla Maroney.

Those being sued have denied cover-up allegations.

Today Wieber along with three other Olympians will testify before a U.S. senate panel. The focus will be on how national governing bodies can better protect athletes from abuse.
