Highlighting a pattern of ignored warnings and overlooked complaints, the documentary provides a chilling account of the institutional negligence that facilitated Nassar's prolonged abuse. Krueger's narrative is enriched by powerful testimonies from survivors who, through immense bravery, confronted the perpetrators and the institutions that failed to protect them.

Chronicles of Crime presents powerful stories of resilience and systemic failure

Joe Krueger comments on the documentary's broader message: "This series transcends the recounting of a perpetrator's crimes; it is an indictment of a culture that perpetuated these atrocities. Our objective is to challenge the prevailing 'win at all costs' attitude found in some elite sports and educational institutions which, in this case, sacrificed the welfare of young athletes for institutional prestige.”

The documentary not only follows the harrowing experiences of the victims but also celebrates their resilience and the advocates who supported their quest for justice. This culminated in Nassar's conviction and contributed significantly to the momentum of the #MeToo movement, prompting a reevaluation of sexual abuse policies within sports organizations and beyond.

"Larry: Portrait of a Predator" is positioned to resonate with audiences in a manner similar to acclaimed productions like "Athlete A" and "At the Heart of Gold," promising a comprehensive exploration of one of the most infamous scandals in sports and educational history.

The complete series is now available for viewing on the Chronicles of Crime YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt3l2fhPJ-hJoD5kNHqYyjQ, inviting viewers to engage with a critical narrative that seeks to foster accountability and safeguard future generations from similar fates.
