$100,000.00 (1995) Negligent hiring, supervision, and retention (not
firing) of a sexual predator for a position at an institution with
unsupervised, 24-hour access to small children. The victim was a child
who claimed to have been repeatedly molested by the sexual predator
while at the institution. The insurance company of the institution
claimed the victim was a liar and that even if the child was telling
the truth, the institution did not know about the molestation going on
at the institution, did not know that it’s worker was a sexual
predator, and had no duty to supervise the sexual predator it employed.
Facts disputed.
