"(CNN) -- It started with one woman. Then it became dozens.

By the time Larry Nassar was sentenced on Wednesday for criminal sexual conduct, 156 people had appeared in a Michigan courtroom to share stories of sexual assault at the disgraced doctor's hands.

Now, as the former USA Gymnastics and Michigan State University doctor faces a prison sentence of up to 175 years, some survivors said they feel vindicated -- but that their fight isn't over yet. Through Nassar's prosecution, they say, they have found their voices and they intend to keep using them.

In a news conference after the sentencing, they repeated calls for accountability for the people and institutions that "fed" Nassar his victims, as survivor Kaylee Lorincz described it. But the problem is bigger than Nassar, they said. And it extends beyond the sports world.

"Larry is sentenced, but there's still so much more work to to do," survivor Lindsey Lenke said. "We're not going to heal all the way until we know exactly who knew what, when, and how they're going to fix it.""


And,

"Rachael Denhollander, the first woman to publicly accuse Nassar of sexual abuse, called the sentence a victory. But she called for further investigation of what she called the worst sexual assault scandal in history, starting with institutions connected to him.

She identified four by name: Michigan State University and USA Gymnastics, both of whom employed Nassar during his decades of abuse, as well as the United States Olympic Committee and Twistars Gymnastics Club in Michigan, where Nassar admitted to sexually abusing athletes."


And,

""It's the biggest sexual assault scandal in history, and we should want to know why it happened," she said. "And if we don't, it's not going to get better.""

The tally on this one is going to make what Penn State paid out look like a mere pittance.

I hope they do not start naming on campus buildings after these people.
