Former USA gymnastics team doctor Larry Nassar is 'lucky to be alive' after being stabbed multiple times by another inmate during an assault in federal prison.
Nassar, 59, was stabbed twice in the neck, twice in the back and six times in the chest at the United States Penitentiary Coleman in Florida.
'He has a collapsed lung,' said Joe Rojas' who is the prison guard union chief.
'He is lucky to be alive and the only reason he is alive, in my opinion, is because of the staff members who were there.'
The extent of his injuries is currently unknown, with sources confirming that he suffered a collapsed lung during the attack at 2.35pm on Sunday, and remains in a stable condition in hospital.
He was convicted in 2018 of sexually assaulting members of the US team, including Olympic gold medalists Simone Biles, Aly Raisman and McKayla Maroney.
Nassar was serving decades in prison after abusing members of the squad under the guise of medical treatment.
The Bureau of Prisons confirmed the assault to DailyMail.com but declined to identify any of the prisoners' involved.
Officials said staff provided life-saving measures and the inmate was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
They added that the FBI was notified, saying in a statement to: 'No staff or other inmates were injured and at no time was the public in danger. An internal investigation is ongoing.'
Nassar admitted to sexually assaulting the athletes when he worked at Michigan State University and USA Gymnastics, which trains Olympians.

On the other hand if they do his family can sue the prison system and win the lottery.
Damned if you do, Damned if you don't.
Didn’t the inmate who killed Jeffrey Dahmer say he killed him because he was Jeffrey Dahmer? Works for me!
Were I him I’d be tempted to off myself instead of “living” the way he will always “live” from now on.
On the other hand if they do his family can sue the prison system

What is their basis for the suit?
His lost income to provide for them?
Or loss of his ‘comforting presence’?
Pervs doing hard time.
Gee, that’s a shame.
Don’t worry, some bloodsucking lawyer will think of something.
Ok they guy was a Pervert Monster. What should we call the soldier(s) at Camp Pendleton that allegedly bought that 14 year girl and kept her in their barricks?
GUARD: Hey stop that.
twice in the back...
GUARD: Don't make me come over there.
and six times in the chest at the United States Penitentiary Coleman in Florida...
GUARD: OK I warned you.
He is lucky. Lovers of justice are not.
Key word is "allegedly". I'll wait for more information before I make a judgement.
Perv’s do poorly in prison.
The attacker must not have seen any prison movies. Those guys always go for the kidneys and the liver
How did that lawsuit work out for the long-lost nephew of Jeffrey Epstein?
Call him, “the accused”; or “innocent until proven guilty”.
You believe every sensational allegation you read?
how does society deal with such evil other than let other evil take it out...we as a society don't seem to have the balls to do it.
Good thing he didn’t die. Let this animal live in adseg the rest of his life and slowly go insane or put him back in genpop where he has to fear for his life every second. Both options are worse than death.
Call them the same.
Bones: He’s dead, Jim.
