Robert Anderson, deceased doctor at the University of Michigan, is accused of molesting hundreds of young men at the school. Now pilots, who regularly needed physicals, also have emerged as victims. Anderson was designated as an aviation medical examiner.

FILE - This file photo, date and location not known, provided by the Bentley Historical Library at the University of Michigan, shows Dr. Robert E. Anderson. Some pilots have emerged as victims of Anderson, a deceased doctor who worked for decades at the University of Michigan. Anderson is at the center of a scandal at the university. He's accused of molesting hundreds of young men there, especially athletes who saw him for injuries.

He said Anderson told him to undress, put on a medical gown and get on a table, instead of simply checking the man’s vision, hearing and heart. He said the doctor touched his genitals and gave him a prostate exam. “I schedule two exams a day and two extra on Thursday evenings and three on Saturday,” he told the FAA in 1973. “This quite comfortably handles over 750 a year, if desired. ... I have not approached this number, as your records will show.”“A few have left me because they have desired less of a physical exam than I am willing to give,” he said.

Lawyers who are suing the university are focusing on evidence that campus officials years ago were aware of allegations against Anderson. A supervisor, Tom Easthope,last summer that he went to fire Anderson in the late 1970s after learning he was “fooling around with boys.” The doctor resigned as director of the university’s Health Service but continued to see athletes and others until 2003.

Bo and every AD knew everything, didn't do anything. Numerous buildings named after them.

He worked at U of M until 2003. The black and white is meant to make you think it’s ancient history.

Folks in positions of authority with access to young people.

too bad we cant dig him up and make him pay for his crimes, huh? bas turd.

I bet Jim_Jordan knew all about it.

All that heat from the under carriage. Perv

(subversively) also states that this is a mental health issue and this man deserves leniency because he is just a sick person. And calls for people to be apologists for predators. AP seeks to destroy moralistic orgs and individuals that are against this disgusting shit.

How do you know it wasn’t part of the exam?

Jim Jordan at OSU complicit in sexual molestation

Wtf is wrong with Michigan?

Michigan again? The gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar was there too.

Why is a deceased doctor still at the University of Michigan?

How sad.

GO BLUE!

Sure, wait till he is dead to admit the truth.

Screw him. Still, pilots? Male? Adults? Were there any combat pilots there as well? Didn’t one of them ever say, but Doc you just gave me prostate exam last week?

This might hurt...I’m gonna check your landing gear

Sick people should be recognized and treated in timely manner ... many people get hurt otherwise ... I hope this is a good lesson from the past we can use very handy in regards of events and people ...

😳

Most Americans don’t want the government to pit one race against another. But that's what Democrats are good at. Their political strategy is mainly pitting one race against another, and stoking racial division.

Men shielding men. Please see Jim Jordan for similar atrocities that victimize, dehumanize and then blame

Has everything college medical professional molested a student at some point. I feel like that’s where this is heading

Good lord! What is going on in the Big 10?

If you are man of age to be a pilot and some dude molests you, you jump up and punch him in the face. Then you stomp a puddle in him.

🙈

Michigan and Ohio St. really are rivals in everything.

Why do they all look the same

good grief these people are devils
