07/26/2021
Professor Jennifer Drobac was a guest on the WFYI radio program All IN, where panelists discussed the recent developments in the USA Gymnastics scandal. Professor Drobac appeared on the program July 29.
The radio show focused on the USA Gymnastics-Larry Nassar case and the recent news that the FBI in Indiana may have been negligent in its investigation. A report by the Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Justice is critical of the FBI’s Indianapolis office. The report found misconduct in connection with the failure to follow up on 2015 reports about sexual abuse allegations against longtime USA Gymnastics team doctor Larry Nassar.
Professor Drobac is a widely known expert in sexual harassment law. She is an author of the textbook, Sexual Harassment Law: History, Cases and Practice, recently published by Carolina Academic Press. She co-authored the book with Professor Carrie N. Baker of Smith College and Professor Rigel C. Oliveri of the University of Missouri School of Law. Professor Drobac is at work on her next book, The Myth of Consent, which is under contract with Cambridge University Press. That work will explore the neuroscience of adult decision making and how the science should influence law reform, particularly the law of consent. She is a Samuel R. Rosen Professor of Law.
