On Wednesday, the Sun Sentinel reported that the Palm Beach County School District is expected to approve a $3.6 million settlement of a 12-year-old lawsuit in which a group of girls (adults at this point) accused elementary school teacher Blake Sinrod of fondling them in their classroom in 2005.
In 2015, In Touch magazine got their hands on a police report showing an investigation into Josh Duggar from 2006, for molesting girls. The names were redacted, but it was soon revealed that the girls he’d abused were his own sisters, crumbling (for a time) the Duggar empire. Two years later, Jill, Jessa, Jinger and…
The Boston Globe’s Spotlight Investigation Team has published a report unearthing a disturbingly large number of sexual abuse cases from private schools throughout New England.

Jim Bob and Michelle Dugger went on Fox News Wednesday night to explain why their son’s childhood molestation habit wasn’t really that big of a deal. Unsurprisingly, InTouch has found, many of their statements were deliberately misleading.
America’s most awful sanctimonious family is finally getting the kind of recognition they deserve: In the wake of Josh Duggar’s admission that he had molested children as a minor, TLC has pulled 19 Kids & Counting from their schedule, removing all traces of the Duggars from our televisions. At least for now.

In an attempt to maintain some sort of relevance in 2015, Princeton Mom (aka "author" Susan Patton) stopped by Fox & Friends to point out that most molestation is, how shall we say it, just a comedy of errors and does not mean that children should be taught about sex ed. Because sex ed is vulgar. Things the Princeton…
The Honey Boo Boo horror show continues: Sandra Hale, mother of June "Mama June" Thompson and grandmother to Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson, told ET that she fears for Alana's safety now that her daughter has reportedly reunited with ex boyfriend Mark McDaniel, a convicted child molester.

A middle-schooler in Texas was violated when his teacher interrupted his third-period class to give him a full-contact lap dance at, she says, the urging of other students in the course.

Woody Allen's lawyer appeared on Today this morning to address the renewed allegations that the writer/director had molested his 7-year-old daughter Dylan Farrow 21 years ago. "In my view, she's not lying," Elkan Abramowitz said. "She's truly believes this happened."

Singapore, which might be one of the worst places in the world if you're looking to break the law, has apparently rolled out an anti-public-groping campaign, which would be very helpful and nice if its street-side ads didn't features incredibly creepy pictures supplemented with a litany of instructions about what…
The famously anti-gay Boy Scouts of America organization has been ordered to release its fiercely protected "perversion files," which contain information about thousands of instances where trusted BSA adult leaders victimized children involved in scouting. The files, which cover incidents that occurred between the…
As anyone who's attended a freshman orientation rape prevention seminar can tell you, sexual victimization is much more common than most people are comfortable admitting, and most sexual abuse goes unreported. And while profiles of sexual abuse victims are more diverse than fast food restaurants' Kidz Klub mascots,…
The classic Hollywood exploitation story involves a young/naive struggling actress, a sleazy older man, and the promise of fame.

Fallout from the case of Jerry Sandusky, the disgraced former Penn State defensive coordinator who stands accused of sexually abusing several boys he met through his charity, has extended to the upper reaches of Penn State University.
