If you or a loved one endured sexual abuse or assault while detained at Camp Kenyon Scudder in Santa Clarita, California, know this: you have a right to justice, and you do not have to seek it alone. A recent wave of lawsuits and the landmark $4 billion survivors settlement with Los Angeles County have shattered the silence, exposing a decades-long culture of systemic abuse and institutional failure within the juvenile detention system. Our firm is committed to holding the powerful accountable and fighting for the compensation and closure that survivors of Camp Kenyon Scudder and other facilities like it deserve.
For far too long, the Los Angeles County juvenile detention system, including facilities like Camp Kenyon Scudder, failed in its most basic duty: to protect vulnerable youth in its care. Guards, staff, and other officials entrusted with supervision too often became perpetrators, engaging in horrific acts of sexual abuse, molestation, and assault.
Our firm believes this was not an isolated issue, but a catastrophic institutional failure. The county’s negligence in hiring, training, and supervision created an environment where predators could operate without penalty, and children suffered in silence. And we believe they need to be held accountable for the harm they inflicted on too many minor detainees.
We understand that coming forward after sexual abuse is one of the most difficult steps a survivor can take. We know that the trauma of this abuse can last a lifetime, causing severe emotional distress, psychological harm, and impacting every facet of your life.
While no amount of money can erase the past, a Camp Kenyon Scudder abuse lawsuit can serve two vital purposes: it provides critical financial resources for therapy, medical care, and healing, and it forces the responsible institutions to be publicly accountable for their egregious wrongs.
Our experienced team of attorneys has a proven record of taking on powerful entities like Los Angeles County, and we have handled sexual abuse cases before. We are well-versed in the complex legal landscape of these cases and are determined to help survivors finally seek justice, even for abuse that occurred years or decades ago.
