BEND, OR -- Deschutes County District Attorney John Hummel has issued a statement regarding an Oregonian newspaper investigation into the alleged rape of a child by a co-founder of Mercy Corps, Ellsworth Culver. Hummel says, “Shame on Mercy Corps’ Board of Directors and senior management for sweeping the allegations under the rug when they were first raised 25 years ago and when they were raised again last year.” Hummel says he hopes heads roll as a result of the investigation.
