Father lunges at Larry Nassar in court before being restrained
CNN ^ | 02-02-2018 | Satff

Posted on 02/02/2018 9:57:25 AM PST by Red Badger

The father of three daughters who were abused by Larry Nassar tried to attack the former doctor in an Eaton County, Michigan, court Friday before he was tackled and arrested by security. Randall Margraves said he was a "distraught father" and cursed at Nassar, but Judge Janice Cunningham told him that was not allowed in court. He then asked the judge for personal time alone with the "demon." "I would ask you, as part of the sentencing, to grant me five minutes in a locked room with this demon," he asked. "Would you give me one minute?"

The judge declined, saying, "That's not how our legal system works." "Well, I'm going to have to," Margraves responded, and he launched into a sprint toward Nassar. Randall Margraves, father of three victims of Larry Nassar, lunged at Nassar, bottom right, on Friday in Eaton County Circuit Court in Michigan. Randall Margraves, father of three victims of Larry Nassar, lunged at Nassar, bottom right, on Friday in Eaton County Circuit Court in Michigan. Security rushed to stop him and grabbed him from behind before he was able to reach Nassar. "I want that son of a b****!" the man yelled as he was being detained. "Give me one minute with that bastard." He added, "What if this happened to you guys?" The incident sparked harsh words from Michigan Assistant Attorney General Angela Povilaitis in court. "You cannot behave like that," she said. "No one can behave like this. I want to make sure it's crystal clear."

Let me guess, that this dad will be arrested and charged with attempted assault.
.

If that happened and I were on that jury judging such a case, I think jury nullification would happen.

Good for him. This will give his molested daughters some relief however small...or large.

The father’s solution should be automatic. Any criminal gets alone-time with the victim’s families.

After he apologised to the court: Judge Cunningham agreed to release him without a fine or punishment "given the circumstances of the case," she said, but still affirmed that he acted inappropriately.

Wish he’d have got a piece of Larry before they took him down. Like his head.

Looks like the deputies took him to the ground somewhat gently. No night-sticking or punches. Took a few of them though.

Good for Dad,

Maybe the judge should have sentenced him to....one hour of confinement.

With Nasser.

Just think what is going to happen when all the pedo stuff comes out.

This is just a sliver of what Podesta and all them should be looking forward to.

“”Give me one minute with that bastard.””

He should have been a little more tuned into his family and not let “that bastard” spend one minute with his daughters.

Is Larry Nasser a member of the protected “Amissing” (er, Amish) religion?

I’ve wondered that myself, but cannot find much except:

He married Stephanie Lynn Anderson[8] on October 19, 1996, at St. John’s Catholic Church in East Lansing

The guys who grabbed him, I am sure, wished they also could have had 5 minutes alone with the perp. But, they had to do their job and restrain the dad. The camera should have followed them out the door. We would have heard the guys apologize for having to stop him from pulverizing the perp.

His wife probably took the girls to the appointments, as I took my girls. I had them see a woman pediatrician because I was always uncomfortable having my male doctor examine me during my childhood and he never did anything wrong.

But a mother doesn’t stare at every aspect of the exam, and the doctor can stand between mother and patient, and Nasser had perfected the split second molestation.
