The Los Gatos-Saratoga Union High School District has agreed to pay a former student track star $3.4 million after she filed a lawsuit for the alleged sexual abuse she endured as a high schooler from an assistant coach.
"I was a popular kid in high school," Doe said."I had a lot of friends but Robinson took control of my life by alienating me from my family and friends. It happened very quickly -- everyone you know becomes a stranger because you're no longer a part of them and they're no longer a part of you. So then it was just him."
Doe and others were allowed to pursue legal action against the school district despite the abuse occurring in the late 1990s thanks to Assembly Bill 218, which permits older sexual abuse cases to be reviewed until December 2022. The school district said in a statement that it hopes this settlement agreement"will help bring closure for everyone involved in this unfortunate situation."
