Category: Blog, Negligence, News, Personal Injury, Wrongful Death Tags: , , ,

Child abuse is one of the most widely under-reported crimes in America. Unfortunately, child abuse can occur at any time and without warning. In some cases, the victims of child abuse can collect compensation for all their pain and suffering.

A University of Pittsburgh educator and AIDS researcher who was the subject of a recent news story about alleged sexual abuse in the Boy Scout troop he led in the mid-1970s has died six weeks after suffering a massive stroke.

Former Penn State president Graham Spanier and two other former administrators were charged Thursday with perjury, obstruction of justice, and endangering children in connection with their handling of the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal.
