Our client was a young woman who came to us seeking legal help in pursuing action against an association she was involved in. The association provided youth development activities to children and adolescents and involved adult volunteers that worked closely with minors.
The plaintiff’s involvement with the association as a minor gave rise to the occasion for an adult male perpetrator to groom her and opportunistically abuse her. The activities between the minor and the volunteer during the course of their involvement with the association enabled the perpetrator to build a relationship, trust and emotional connection with the young girl so that he could then manipulate, exploit, and sexually abuse her outside of the association.
The defendant argued that it was not vicariously liable for the actions of the perpetrator on the basis that the perpetrator was a volunteer of the association and not an employee.
By briefing a grooming expert, we were able to effectively allege that the plaintiff was subjected to persistent and pre-mediated grooming by the perpetrator over a sustained period, which allowed the perpetrator to commit acts of sexual abuse at camps and remotely through exchanges of photos and text messages.
