A Southern California School District Settles Sex Abuse Lawsuits For $13 Million
A Southern California school district has agreed to pay $13.75 million to settle civil lawsuits over a worker who admitted molesting elementary school students.
The agreement was announced Tuesday by attorneys for 10 former students from Liberty Elementary School in Riverside.
The suits said the Riverside Unified School District ignored or covered up sex abuse allegations against Fernando Figueroa, a technology aide.
