$4B in CA taxpayer funds meant for sex abuse victims goes to fake claims

California has been rocked by another alleged massive fraud scheme that has reportedly seen billions of taxpayer dollars intended for victims of child sex abuse being allocated to people who filed fake claims.
Los Angeles County had agreed in April 2025 to pay over $4 billion to settle more than 11,000 claims of sexual abuse at county-run juvenile halls, foster homes and a notorious children’s shelter.
The claims, many of which stretch back decades, came after the Golden State changed its statute of limitations to give victims who were sexually abused as minors a new window to sue.
