During the fifth day of former USA Gymnastics and Michigan State doctor Larry Narrar’s sentencing, 15-year-old Emma Ann Miller made a statement revealing she might be the last child Nassar ever assaulted.

Miller said one week before Nassar was fired from Michigan State in December 2016, she was assaulted during an appointment at Michigan State— and the University is still trying to bill her mother for the visit. Nassars was fired by USA Gymnastics a year before he was fired by Michigan State.

“Are you listening MSU?” Miller said before asking Ingham County Court Judge Rosmarie Aquilina to give Nassar full 125-year sentence. “I can’t hear you. Are you listening? My name is Emma Ann Miller, and I’m 15 years old. And I’m not afraid of you, nor will I ever be.”

Nassar, who is currently serving a 60-year sentence for child pornography, pled guilty to molesting 10 girls and will be sentenced this week for seven of assaults.
