Public institutions have spent over $1 billion assuaging the emotions of hundreds of female athletes who were subjected to phony medical exams and treatments by the above Larry Nassar, then a physician at Michigan State University, now a federal prison inmate.
No employee of these institutions that heard the accusations against the perv but did nothing about them has been disciplined in any way. This includes the FBI, Michigan State Univ., USA Gymnastics and the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee. In the West money heals all wounds.

Park Geun-Hye, president of South Korea from 2013 to 2017 was originally sentenced to 30 years in jail and fined $16.8 million for guilt in 16 corruption charges, but has recently been pardoned by current president Moon Jae-in, to the consternation of the general populace.
There's a Chinese government agency called the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, the investigative agency that monitors the behavior and lifestyles of party leaders. Transgressions involve more than money. In the Orient even the big wheels suffer for crime or ineptitude.
An Asian counterpart of US FBI traitor Charles McGonigal would never be heard of again. McGonigal pleaded guilt to two unrelated charges and will spend 6 1/2 years in protective custody at some minimum security facility with cable tv.
