Andrew plant, bbc news. Rachael denhollander was the first person to speak up about dr larry nassar. She was abused when she was a 15 year old gymnast and has now gone on to be a lawyer. Shell be at the sentencing hearing of dr nassar on tuesday. I asked her what her expectations are. I think its going to be a really difficult hearing. There are or of a 90 survivors giving their impact statements. I also expect it to be very freeing for the truth to be able to be heard and the survivors to be able to raise their voices in a context where they are being believed, it will be very powerful. You were the first whistleblower on all this. You have been right through it as an athlete. What is your take on the whole thing . It shines a light on a broader cultural problem that we have. The reason Larry Nassars story came to light was because the Indianapolis Star did an expose on the United States association of gymnastics, just abhorrent behaviour in handling these allegations. It came out in criminal trials that usag had a policy of literally burying reports of Sexual Assault against member coaches, putting them in a file cabinet and it came out that they had buried 5a files on coaches accused of Sexual Assault within a 10 year period. When you see the number of victims coming forward with Larry Nassars investigation, what you are seeing is a drop in the bucket, and this in terms of a cultural problem at usag. What impact do you think it will have that simone biles has decided to talk about this . I really hope that it will draw attention again to the broader cultural problem. Larry is a symptom of the problem. The fact that so many gymnasts have suffered horrific sexual abuse at his hands is because of the policies that usag have, creating an environment where it was safe for predators to prey on little girls and even on their most premier athletes. When you have an organisation that has a tone of not reporting allegations of sexual abuse, that literally buries reports in a file cabinet and goes so far as to defend the practice of burying these reports in under oath testimony in criminal trials, you know, you really create a perfect dynamic for sexual predators. And that is precisely what you see with usag with larry and other elite coaches. Just briefly, because you are a lawyer, and i know that we cannot accuse people who are not here to speak for themselves, but it sounds very clearly as if you expect to see other people in the dock at some point. These actually are gymnasts that have come forward. For example, there was. This came to light because a usag certified coach named William Mccabe was prosecuted for sexually abusing gymnasts, and in his trial, it was revealed that usag had a file about two inches thick of reports of william and the president of usag at the time was called to give an under oath deposition and was questioned about usag policy and the fact that they had this file on William Mccabe and did not report it, and the directors response in his under oath testimony on Public Record was that they had the policy because they wanted to avoid a witch hunt, and so this is a matter of Public Record that has been supported by numerous victims and that usag responded to publicly and they have defended that policy. Rachael denhollander that, the first whistleblower. Some tough words. Usa gymnastics has given us a statement it went on to say and it also said police in california are saying theyve rescued a family of 13 brothers and sisters being held against their will by their parents. Its reported some were chained to their beds. The parents have been charged with torture and child endangerment. The alarm was raised on sunday morning when one girl escaped and called the emergency services, claiming her brothers and sisters, ranging in age from 2 to 29, were being held captive at their home in the city of perris, south east of los angeles. Some were found shackled to their beds and appeared malnourished and very dirty. The parents, david and louise turpin, have been arrested. Neighbours have reacted to the news. Wejust heard on facebook and on the news that this family hold their children captive in their house and chained them, some of their kids, to their beds. So its just been really shocking knowing that they had 12 kids locked in their house. Lets take a look at some of the other stories making the news.

Pope francis has started his visit to chile. Thousands of people lined his route into santiago, but the crowds were much smaller than those seen on the popes previous visits to latin america. The Roman Catholic church in chile has been undermined in recent years by revelations of sexual abuse by members of the clergy, and the popes visit is seen as an effort to bolster the churchs standing. The highlight of the visit will be an open air mass in a park in santiago on tuesday.

The fate of the Rohingya Refugees who fled violence in myanmar for bangladesh has been discussed by both governments. More than 500,000 rohingyas are now living in the Worlds Largest refugee camp in bangladesh. The aid Agency Unicef is calling it a childrens crisis because of the large numbers of children who live in the camps. Last september the bbcs Justin Rowlatt met one rohingya woman who crossed the border when she was heavily pregnant. Hes been back to see how she and her new baby are. Hey, hello. Mohammed is 3. 5 months old now. Hello, mohammed. Hello. But right from birth, hes faced discrimination. The bangladeshi authorities wont issue birth certificates to rohingya babies, so, officially, mohammed does not exist. We first met his mother the day she escaped from myanmar. She was nine months pregnant. She told me how the myanmar army and local buddhists had attacked her village. But their troubles were far from over. Guards moved her and herfamily on. They said there was land over the hill. But not enough for everyone. Rishidas husband tried to stake out a plot, but was driven off by other refugees. Her family had to sleep in the open, despite the rains. Finally, they found space to build a rickety shack. Her baby was born on the soggy, muddy floor. Translation he was born right here. There was no midwife, no medicine, no mat, no wood to light a fire. It was so painful, but by gods grace, a girl from next door came and cut the umbilical chord and then i picked him up from the mud. Thats how my baby came into this world. Luckily, mohammed hasnt caught cholera or diphtheria, two of the deadly diseases that have broken out in the camps. But not having any official identity will be a real problem. Itll be hard for him to get into school, to register for services and may make getting back into myanmar even more difficult for his family. So, like the rest of the refugees, he will have to eke out an existence here in bangladesh, stateless, with just a shack for a home, denied even the dignity of an official identity.

The latest headlines the four time olympic champion gymnast, simone biles, says she was sexually abused by the former usa team doctor, larry nassar. Dolores oriordan, lead singer of the irish rock band the cranberries, has died suddenly at the age of 46. Shed been involved in a recording session in london when she died. The cranberries formed in the 1980s, had a string of hits and sold a0 million records around the world. Our entertainment correspondent lizo mzimba reports. Dolores oriordan do you have to let it linger . Do you have to, do you have to . Do you have to let it linger . Linger was the first song Dolores Oriordan ever wrote with the cranberries. It turned her and the band into stars. Ijust want to be with you. Linger was about teenage rejection. Im such a fool for you. Folks, do me a favour. Please welcome, and just in time for thanksgiving, the cranberries. Their rapid success, particularly in america, soon saw the young singer songwriter move on to weightier topics. With their tanks and bombs. Zombie was a wrenchingly powerful protest song, written after two Young Children were killed by an ira bomb. In your head. Zombie, zombie, zombie. Last year, the band were ready to tour once more, but it was cut short by health problems. Ive had Health Issues a lot in the last few years, but one of the worst things was i had a disc problem in my back, and i had stopped playing guitar. Today, the irish Prime Minister said, for anyone who grew up in ireland in the 1990s, Dolores Oriordan was the voice of a generation. You got me wrapped around yourfinger. A generation tonight mourning the loss of one of musics great talents. Do you have to do you have to . Do you have to let it linger . Earlier, i spoke to Stephen Thomas erlewine, a musicjournalist who writes for tivo and Rolling Stone among others. He said the news of the sudden death of Dolores Oriordan had taken the Music Industry by surprise. Its a shock. I mean, at a6, shes way too young to go, and even though it was mentioned that shes had some health problems, its still quite a surprise. And it also is pretty sad because the cranberries had reunited, and they had started to on this tour, and it feels like she still had a lot left to give. I think you i mean, you will know, i think it was nick kent who said, rock n roll we pay these people to go to hell, so that we dont have to. I mean, she really went through it. She really did, and you could always tell that in her voice. That was something that always struck me about doloress voice, is that its really powerful even in its quietest moments. There is a real sense of being tough and defiant, and it gave the softer songs, like linger, a little bit of a spine that you might not expect. It also brought some vulnerability into Something Like zombie, which was a wrenching protest song. And that vulnerability and power is absolutely there in her stage presence, as well, isnt it . Absolutely, she was a commanding presence. The rest of the cranberries, they sort of would fade into the background, because she was such a forceful presence at the front of the band. There must always be some kind of bargain, i suppose, when she had had, and was having, such a tough time. How much do you think she drew from that . How much do you think itjust damaged her beyond repair . I think she based on the art, she drew from it. Because the art was always personal, even when she was trying to do political statements, which was a fair amount of the time. It felt like it was something that really affected her deeply and personally. So, to me, it always seemed like she drew sustenance from it. And unfortunately, she had to go through that to make the art that she did. I guess there would be quite a few people now who dont know the cranberries, dont know her. How much of the music do you think will live . I think for sure the first two albums, that were produced by stephen street, they are the ones that have dream, linger, zombie. Thats a type of song that didnt belong to any country. They were popular throughout the world, because you couldnt quite define them. They stood outside of time and space a little bit. And there are some interesting people now, arent there, talking about her impact, and the bands impact on them. Yes, i have noticed there was a big outpouring from peers, like liz phair, dave davies of the kinks, who mentioned he was going to write songs for her. And it seemed like she still had a lot to offer. Stephen Thomas Erlewine there. In the political fights currently taking place in the us over immigration policy, we can lose sight of the impact theyre having on peoples lives. But its quite apparent in washington States Pacific county. The majority of people there voted for donald trump. But in 2017 the number of arrests and deportations in the community quadrupled, leaving some questioning the policies theyre now bound to uphold. There are some republicans here who are delighted with what is going on, with the enforcement of immigration. But there are also a number of republicans who are feeling very distressed, and saying this isnt being done in the proper way. I consider myself very politically conservative. I thought it sounded great. I mean, you break the law by going, and then when you actually. For me, you think wait a minute, wait a minute. This year, what we have noticed is a lot of people who have been in our community for a number of years have been arrested and detained by ice. We are talking people who have been here sometimes ten, 12, even more years. So its impacting the fisheries, the cannery workers, the cranberry bogs, but even more so than that, i think people are just emotionally in turmoil, because they have seen people they have known for years, friends, acquaintances, neighbours, people that they have gone to church with, those kind of things, kids they went to school together, are just gone. They are taking the easy targets. I have been told people are just going to work for the day, and ice is there waiting for them when they arrive at work. And its frustrating, because they have not yet been able to tell us the names of people that they are taking away, or any details. So sometimes we have had cases where maybe somebody is missing, and we dont know if they were taken by ice, or if they are actually a missing person. I have no problem whatsoever in seeing people who are committing crimes deported. Since i have been the sheriff in the last seven years, i think they have only taken people about a half dozen times from our jail facility. The turning point for me was a guy that i have known for many years. Its easy to hear soundbites and say, yes, that is a great policy. It is different when you are implementing it and you start saying, wait a minute, this is actually affecting peoples lives, and i didnt sign for this. Second thoughts in pacific county.
