Left-wing ex-gymnastics doc Larry Nassar allegedly pays gangbangers for protection with gay 'sexual favors'

Child molester and disgraced sports doctor Larry Nassar relied on 
gangbangers for protection — paying them in cash and “sexual favors” — 
while he rotted inside a Florida federal prison, an inmate claimed.

Around June 2021, Nassar, 60, was seen going into a cell at the federal 
penitentiary in Sumter County, Fla., with Mexican gang members, according 
to Grace Pinson, an inmate who did time with Nassar at the high-security 
prison.

The cell had its door shut and windows covered while the men were inside, 
which is done either when inmates are having sex or doing drugs, Pinson 
told The Post in a telephone interview from Allenwood, Pa. where the now-
transgender inmate is currently incarcerated. 

In Nassar’s case, “it was definitely not for drugs,” she contended.

“Larry Nassar has decided . . . sucking d–k is a better way . . . of 
staying alive,” said Pinson, who was sentenced to 20 years in the clink 
for sending a threatening letter to then-President George W. Bush in 2005. 

The jailbird described Nassar, who sexually abused hundreds of gymnasts 
including Olympians Simone Biles and Gabby Douglas, as a “scared little 
church mouse” who only left his housing unit in the prison to visit the 
chapel.

There, she would chat with him, including about his hired muscle.

“He wished he didn’t need those guys,” she recalled Nassar telling her. 
“In some ways what they expected of him was worse than the idea of being 
stabbed and killed.”

During his five years in Coleman, Nassar allegedly paid “a couple hundred 
dollars a month” to the Mexican gang members for protection, Pinson 
claimed.

The inmate insisted she learned about Nassar’s hired protection from the 
gang members she hung out with in the prison.

She claimed she also viewed a phone her cellmate had that was used by the 
gangsters to handle drug transactions and discuss other business.

Pinson believes they were forcing Nassar to do “sexual favors” as payback 
for violating little girls — “to humiliate and degrade Larry Nassar.”

“Making Larry Nassar suck your d–k in prison — it’s a twisted way of 
paying him back for what he did to those women.”

The paid protection, however, wasn’t enough to keep Nassar safe from a 
near-fatal attack last year, when fellow inmate Shane McMillan repeatedly 
stabbed the serial sexual abuser in his cell in July after Nassar 
reportedly said he wanted to ogle female tennis players at Wimbledon.

“You’re not going to risk your life for Larry Nassar for a couple of 
hundred bucks,” Pinson quipped about the dirty doc’s hired guards.

The wicked doctor has since transferred to a federal prison in Lewisburg, 
Pa.

Bureau of Prisons spokesman Scott Taylor declined to comment on Pinson’s 
claims about Nassar. 

Nassar declined an interview request.

Jose Rojas, the former president for the Coleman prison officers’ union 
who retired in December, questioned Pinson’s jailhouse tale, claiming that 
Nassar was held in a “dropout” unit that is considered safer than general 
population.

“That’s one of those places if you’re an inmate, you want to go into that 
unit because everything is quiet,” Rojas said, adding that believes he 
would have heard from inmates about gangbangers leaning on Nassar.

For decades, the former USA Gymnastics and Michigan State University 
sports physician sexually abused more than 250 girls and women under the 
guise of providing medical treatment.

A slew of prominent athletes, including Olympians Aly Raisman and McKayla 
Maroney, helped bring down the deranged doctor by coming forward with 
their harrowing allegations of sexual abuse. 

Nassar was sentenced to hundreds of years in prison after pleading guilty 
to sexually abusing young athletes and possessing child porn across a trio 
of trials.
