Los Angeles County approves $4 billion settlement for sexual abuse claims in juvenile facilities and foster homes.
Los Angeles County has approved a $4 billion settlement to address nearly 7,000 claims of sexual abuse in county-run juvenile facilities and foster homes since 1959.
The settlement, the largest in U.S. history, surpasses the $2.6 billion Boy Scouts of America settlement in 2022.
The claims were enabled by a 2020 California law that suspended the statute of limitations for childhood sexual abuse cases.
The county will fund the settlement through its rainy day fund and by issuing bonds, with payments expected over the next five years.
