A former U.S. Olympics gymnastics coach with ties to disgraced sport doctor Larry Nassar died by suicide Thursday after being charged with two dozen crimes, including forms of human trafficking, the state attorney general said.The announcement from Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel came about three hours after a news conference where Nessel announced that John Geddert was charged with two dozen crimes, including sexual assault, human trafficking and running a criminal enterprise. The charges were the latest fallout from the sexual abuse scandal involving Nassar, a former Michigan State University sports doctor.Nessel said at a news conference that it was her understanding he had turned himself in to law enforcement and would appear at a court arraignment about an hour later. The arraignment never happened.Geddert was also accused of lying to investigators in 2016 when he denied ever hearing complaints about Nassar, who is serving decades in prison for sexually assaulting female athletes in a scandal that counted hundreds of victims and turned USA Gymnastics upside down.Geddert, 63, was head coach of the 2012 U.S. women맥스카지노�s Olympic gymnastics team, which won a gold medal. He had long been associated with Nassar, who was the Olympic team's doctor and also treated injured gymnasts at Twistars, Geddert맥스카지노�s Lansing-area gym.Geddert was accused of recruiting minors for forced labor, a reference to the gymnasts he coached, according to documents filed in an Eaton County court.A message seeking comment was left with Geddert맥스카지노�s attorney. Nessel said the coach used 맥스카지노�force, fraud and coercion맥스카지노� for financial benefit.맥스카지노�The victims suffer from disordered eating,맥스카지노� Nessel said, 맥스카지노�including bulimia and anorexia, suicide attempts and attempts at self harm, excessive physical conditioning, repeatedly being forced to perform even when injured, extreme emotional abuse and physical abuse, including sexual assault.맥스카지노�Many of these victims still carry these scars from this behavior to this day,맥스카지노� the attorney general said.The charges against Geddert included two counts of sexual assault against a teen in 2012.Nessel acknowledged that the case might not fit the common understanding of human trafficking.Video: Former gymnast Rachael Denhollander on difficulty for athletes to report a crime맥스카지노�We think of it predominantly as affecting people of color or those without means to protect themselves ... but honestly it can happen to anyone, anywhere,맥스카지노� she said. 맥스카지노�Young impressionable women may at times be vulnerable and open to trafficking crimes, regardless of their stature in the community or the financial well-being of their families.맥스카지노�Assistant Attorney General Danielle Hagaman-Clark said the charges against Geddert 맥스카지노�have very little to do맥스카지노� with Nassar.Geddert was suspended by Indianapolis-based USA Gymnastics during the Nassar scandal.
