Widespread Sexual Abuse at

Illinois Youth Detention Centers

Widespread Sexual Abuse at Illinois Youth

Detention Centers

For decades, minors who were sent to Illinois' youth detention centers experienced sexual abuse at the hands of probation officers, guards and other staff members. Recently, hundreds of brave individuals have come forward to file lawsuits against these facilities that failed to protect them.

Sexual predators have always relied on victims NOT coming forward to report the abuse. Today that's changing. Thousands of victims are now coming forward to call out these predators and receive the justice and compensation they deserve.


Pintas and Mullins is one of the nation's leading law firms fighting sex abuse. Speak with one of our female attorneys or paralegals today for a confidential and free claim review.

The Central California Women’s Facility in Chowchilla, California faced allegations of sexual assault in 1999. A 2016 report by The Prison Law Office based on interviews with more than 130 inmates showed that the facility permitted, condoned, and covered up sexual abuse.

One man recounted the repeated sexual abuse he suffered when he was just 13 years old by guards at two different facilities. Horrific acts against young boys and girls were commonplace and little to nothing was done to ensure their safety from predatory behavior.
