¿Puedo presentar una demanda por abuso sexual en el Campus de Justicia Juvenil de Fresno?

Yes, you can sue for acts of sexual abuse against a minor that you experienced during your stay at the Fresno Juvenile Justice Campus in California. You are probably aware that juvenile inmate abuse lawsuits are generally filed against the county, city, or state agency in charge of the facility. For the Juvenile Justice Campus, the operating entity is the Fresno County Probation Department in California.

Typically, it’s a failure by county probation departments that creates a culture of physical and sexual abuse at youth detention centers. You almost always find that allegations are brushed under the rug, and that inmates are silenced by threats or bribes. If there is actually an investigation into the complaint, it will simply end with a statement that no credible evidence was found to support the victim’s accusations. In reality, the evidence was hidden or destroyed because administrators choose to protect their own, even if it means that a child is abused for months or years.

There have been great advancements in victim’s rights over the years, along with legal changes that have extended the amount of time to sue for sexual abuse during childhood. You too can take advantage of the laws and demand the compensation you deserve in a Fresno Juvenile Justice Campus child sexual abuse lawsuit.
