Attorneys filed a lawsuit on behalf of a child under the age of 13 alleging that she was continuously sexually assaulted and raped by a counselor in a classroom at a two-month-long Bible camp run by an Atlanta church.

The events alleged in the complaint took place in the summer of 2018, when the child was 9, according to the family’s attorneys. They sued the West End Family Life and Community Center and its owner, the West End Seventh-day Adventist Church, in Fulton County State Court. The complaint charges the church with negligence in hiring, supervision, training and exercising reasonable care to protect children on its property.
