Also within 12 months, USA Gymnastics must cooperate with the independent investigation into whether anyone knew about athlete complaints of Nassar's abuse and failed to report them.

The committee also sent letters to USA Swimming and USA Taekwondo seeking information about how those organizations handled allegations of sexual misconduct. Geddert said he had "zero knowledge" of Nassar's crimes. He worked for the federation through four Olympic Games, but the allegations did not come to light until 2016.

MACUR: The problem with this is we don't know if it's working or if it's enough because we're not sure how many girls or boys or men and women out there have reported to this organization.

"They said, 'we're handling this, ' and they made me feel like if I kept reaching out, I was going to interfere with the investigation".
