Democrat Sharon Tucker has been sworn in as the new mayor of Indiana’s second-most populous city. She replaces the late Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry. Tucker took the oath of office Tuesday morning. That's three days after she beat out six other candidates to win Saturday’s Democratic caucus in the city of about 270,000. The mayor’s office became vacant when Henry died March 28. Tucker had been a member of the City Council. She resigned from that post Sunday after her caucus win. She is the city's first Black mayor.

The U.S. Justice Department is paying a $138.7 million to settle more than 100 claims that it badly mishandled allegations of sexual assault against Larry Nassar in 2015 and 2016. It was a critical time gap that allowed the sports doctor to continue preying on victims before his arrest. Nassar worked at Michigan State University and at USA Gymnastics. He’s serving decades in prison for assaulting female athletes, including Olympians. For more than a year, FBI agents in Indianapolis and Los Angeles had knowledge of allegations against Nassar but apparently took no action.
