Possible Homicide Information
On Friday 10/14/2016, Denver Homicide Unit Detectives interviewed Jason Nuness, dob: 08/01/1971, at the Denver Detention Center in relation to information he had on a potential homicide. Nuness advised the detectives that while working for Court Services he encountered another inmate who had been brought in for court. Nuness and that inmate, Ezra Lewis, briefly discussed a male named “Tiny”. Lewis reportedly told Nuness that bodies were starting to “pop up on Tiny”. He specifically referenced a victim who had been “washed ashore” in one of the rivers. Mr. Nuness believed this person was potentially the victim of a homicide and that he wouldn’t put it past “Tiny” to have killed someone. He wasn’t sure which river Lewis was referring to but assumed it may be the Platte River since “Tiny” frequents the area near the Salvation Army shelter at 1901 29th Street. Mr. Nuness kept calling it Crossroads but indicated it was in NW Denver near “the river”. Mr. Nuness had no information regarding the victim (date of incident, race, age, gender, etc) and did not believe that Mr. Lewis would either. They both just know that “Tiny” has a temper and has been known to be violent in the past. He described “Tiny” as a black male in his 50’s, approximately 5’9, muscular, tattoos “everywhere” and appears to be homeless. Mr. Nuness indicated he would be nervous telling Mr. Lewis he’d talked to the police about what they had discussed. Ezra Lewis is potentially Ezra Lee Lewis, dob: 9/15/1991. This is the only Ezra Lewis that was located that is currently being housed at the Denver County Jail. If anyone wishes to contact Mr. Nuness (pronounced Nunez) he is finishing a 90-day sentence at the Denver Detention Center and is scheduled for release in mid-November.

Sexual Assault Investigation - Incidents Range from 1996-2014Doctor with Michigan State University Sports Medicine
The Michigan State University (Michigan) Police Department has taken several reports alleging sexual assault by Dr. Lawrence “Larry” G. Nassar, and has re-opened an investigation from 2014.
Nassar is a doctor at Michigan State University Sports Medicine and as part of his faculty assignments also does research and teaches at Michigan State University. He is currently removed from clinical duties. Until recently, Nassar was the Michigan State University’s women’s gymnastics and crew team physician. Nassar also served as an Olympic Gymnastics Team doctor. Nassar volunteered for USA Gymnastics for 29 years until 2015. A gymnast that he worked with in that capacity has made a similar allegation to law enforcement in California.
The victims have reported Nassar digitally penetrated them vaginally and anally and fondled their breasts. Several have reported he performed adjustments inter-vaginally without gloves and in most cases without another medical professional or parent in the room, even though many victims were minors. The dates of the reported incidents range from 1996-2014.
Any agency with additional victims or information related to this investigation is requested to contact Detective Sergeant Andrea Munford of the Michigan State University Police Department at (517) 353-0732 or via E-mail at [email protected].
