Johnson acknowledged she was not one of the women Nassar sexually assaulted and that her intent was to defraud the university.
She will have to pay $75,645.60 in restitution to MSU, which is equivalent to the amount she obtained from the fund, Behrman said. Johnson s plea agreement includes no upfront jail time.
Each of the seven people involved with defrauding the healing fund Tammy Johnson, Donita Johnson, Marcetta Johnson, Porter Johnson, Corey Riley, Mary Riley and Maxann Reese was offered the same plea agreement.
Tammy Johnson will be sentenced in June.
The seven fraudulent claims led MSU to close the $10 million Healing Assistance Fund in July 2018. The fund was set up in December 2017 and was a part of a $500 million settlement the university made with hundreds of Nassar survivors. An interim fund was opened while the university set up a new one.
