(From the AP) A series of lawsuits beginning in South Carolina detail the alleged sexual abuse of at least 20 cheerleaders across six states. However, the lawsuits don’t stop there.
Lawyers are also pursuing the same organized crime charges recently brought against high profile defendants like Harvey Weinstein and the Catholic Church.
Along with the alleged violations of the Protecting Young Victims From Sexual Abuse Act, are claims that Rockstar Cheer and other affiliated groups violated federal racketeering laws. Some of the many defendants are moving to dismiss the 1st cases filed in Greenville.
