Judge Drops Charges Against Former MSU President

The transcript discusses the case involving President Lou Anna Simon, who was accused of lying about her knowledge of misconduct allegations against Larry Nassar. Nassar, a former sports doctor, is serving prison time for sexual abuse. Simon resigned in 2018, and authorities claimed she knew about a complaint against Nassar in 2014, which she denied. A judge dismissed the case due to insufficient evidence, and the state attorney general's office plans to appeal the decision.
