Gwen Anderson read her statement in court on January 17, 2018.

Many of Larry Nassar’s victims say his Ingham County sentencing was a significant step in their journey toward healing. And yet some, like Gwen Anderson, remind us that there’s still much more to be done.

As a middle school teacher, Anderson also has a lot to say about the importance of educating and protecting today’s children, so they don't have to go through what she did.

WKAR’s Katie Cook spoke with her by phone. She started by asking Gwen what she is hoping will come out of the current investigations into MSU.
