The United States Olympic Committee released a statement Tuesday announcing the USOC will launch an investigation by independent team to determine how the abuse of former USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar was allowed to continue for so long.

The news comes minutes after Nassar was sentenced to 40-175 years prison for sex abuse in Lansing, Mich.
