Oregon Youth Authority Lawsuit

(Salem, OR) -- Six more people are suing the Oregon Youth Authority for sexual abuse they say they suffered while at the MacLaren Youth Correctional Facility in Woodburn. Dr. Edward Gary Edwards is also named in the suit. It's the latest in a growing list of lawsuits against the OYA and Edwards following allegations of abuse, negligence and a four decades-long cover up. The six men were all under 18 when they say the abuse occurred amid what they say was a culture of silence. Their attorneys say many of the plaintiffs didn't know their abuse was part of a larger pattern until media reports earlier this year exposed the cover up.
