$115,000 Settlement for Sexual Assault of Minor

$115,000 for a 15 year-old Bronx girl who alleged that while in a YMCA after school program at her high school, she was forced to perform oral sex on a 19 year old male in the girl’s locker room. The defendants argued the act was consensual, but we responded that a minor can not consent and that the program’s failure to properly supervise the students and keep outsiders out of the school was the proximate cause of the attack.
