Sports With Littlefield: Nassar's Sentencing, Patriots Prepare For The Super Bowl

Former USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar was sentenced to 40 to 175 years in prison for sexual assault on Wednesday.

The sentencing from Judge Rosemarie Aquilina came after a hearing in which over 150 young women testified against Nassar, reading statements about the sexual abuse he has inflicted over the past 20 years.

Two-time Olympic gymnast and Needham native Aly Raisman testified at the hearing.
