EAST LANSING, Mich. - The former dean of osteopathic medicine at Michigan State is heading to jail in connection with the university's handling of the Larry Nassar abuse scandal. William Strampel, 71, stood silently Wednesday as an Ingham County judge delivered a sentence of one year in jail. Some of the women who said they dealt with his manipulations and abuse of power spoke up during the proceedings. "The very first time that this man met me, he asked how old I was, and then he made a deliberate choice to talk about someone his age and my exact age having sex," Leah Jackson said. Strampel has a pacemaker, which was an argument his attorney made for him to avoid jail time.
