I have to wonder what is with this trend lately of trying to blame the **** victim for being *****?

"Defendants allege that Plaintiff was herself careless and negligent in and about the matters alleged in the complaint, and that said carelessness and negligence on said Plaintiffâs part proximately contributed to the happenings of the incident and to the injuries, loss and damages complained of, if any there were . . . .

[Alternatively, d]efendants allege that Plaintiff was herself responsible for the acts and damages of which she claims herein, and by reason thereof is estopped from obtaining any damages as result thereof.

Just in case this dry legal language is not clear, the school district claims that Cunnane was âherself responsibleâ for the fact that she was repeatedly sexually abused by her school teachers, beginning at age 12. Or, just in case a jury wonât buy that claim, that she was âcareless and negligentâ in the matter of her own ****.
