USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar

The number of known sexual abuse victims of former USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar has grown to 265.

At least 65 victims are set to confront Nassar in court this week in the last of three sentencing hearings.

He was sentenced last week to 40 to 175 years in prison after nearly 160 women testified that he had molested them.

He was earlier sentenced to 60 years' prison for having child abuse images.

He pleaded guilty in November to three counts of first‑degree criminal sexual conduct against girls for whom he was supposed to be providing medical care.

At least one of the sexual assaults included a victim younger than 13.

Two of the victims were abused at 15 or 16 years old.

According to the BBC, Judge Janice Cunningham told the small court in Charlotte, Michigan that they have over 265 identified victims and an infinite number of victims in the state, in the country, and all over the world.
