Attorney Jeff Fritz discusses a case involving school abuse in New Jersey. The case revolves around a seventh-grade student, Jane Doe, who was groomed and abused by her history teacher, Don Walker. The abuse continued into high school, and Walker even convinced Jane Doe to live with him for a period of time. The case highlights the importance of reporting abuse to Child Protective Services and the challenges victims face in coming forward. The statute of limitations for criminal charges had expired, but Jane Doe filed a civil lawsuit within the two-year window provided by New Jersey law. In this conversation, attorney Jeff Fritz discusses a case involving a survivor of sexual abuse by a teacher in the Camden City School District. He explains the dynamics of the abuse, the reasons why victims often stay in contact with their abusers, and the psychological impact on the survivor. The conversation also covers the lawsuit filed against the school district, the verdict, and the ongoing efforts to hold the district accountable.

In this episode, Renee Williams interviews Michael Haggard,

managing partner of Haggard Law Firm out

of Florida, in person. Michael Haggard and his firm have been representing

crime victims for the last 20 years and played a major role in the cases

surrounding the 2018 shooting that occurred at Stoneman Douglas High School in

Parkland, Florida, where 17 people lost their lives and 17 more were injured.

Michael Haggard represented three victims from the Parkland

shooting: student Joaquin Oliver, cross-country coach Scott Beigel, and teacher

Stacey Lippel. Multiple civil cases resulted from the shooting. The FBI was

targeted in one for failing to act when they were given a tip about the shooter

announcing he was going to open fire on the high school the night before it

happened. Other lawsuits were filed against the school board and the local

police departments.

Tune in to learn more about the ongoing cases and the

lessons that we, as a nation, can learn from what happened in the aftermath of
