How did Larry Nassar, an Olympic gymnastics doctor, get away with abusing hundreds of women and girls for two decades? Believed is an inside look at how a team of women won a conviction in one of the largest serial sexual abuse cases in U.S. history. It's a story of survivors finding their power in a cultural moment when people are coming to understand how important that is. It's also an unnerving exploration of how even well-meaning adults can fail to believe.

Important
This podcast is very important, please listen and keep your ears and eyes open. And believe and report to police.
Highly recommended
This series on Larry Nassar is insightful and powerful and very much needed!
We all need to better understand how sexual abuse can actually play out, how a trusted and loved man can commit horrific crimes and get away with it.
This will help us and the whole society to listen closer to who unfortunately have gone through this horror experience that no one should have gone through.
Simply amazing
I listened to this podcast almost in one go. Everything is great. The song, the narration, the pace. You get to know the facts in all details with a lot of respect and credit given to the victims. It gives you insight on how predators handle their peers and how it can go unnoticed. It is both scary and englightening.
