Director Wray: ‘I Don’t Have a Good Explanation for You’ for Failures in Larry Nassar Case

‘It is utterly jarring to me, it is totally inconsistent with what we train our people on’

EXCERPT:

WRAY: "Well, needless to say, I share your reactions, I share your bewilderment, I share your outrage. You know, on a personal note, not just as a parent or a brother or a husband, but as somebody whose first introduction to law enforcement was working as an intern in the DA’s office in a unit specifically focused on these kinds of crimes. It’s part of what motivated me to pursue a career in law enforcement in the first place. And I don’t have a good explanation for you. It is utterly jarring to me. It is totally inconsistent with what we train our people on, totally inconsistent with what I see from the hundreds of agents who work these cases every day. And that’s why that individual has been fired."
