One of the plaintiffs was 15 at the time. The women allege that Kathy Harris personally observed the abuse, which allegedly occurred on the Mission Viejo High School campus and at her home. According to the filing, [13] [14] they reported the abuse several times over the course of two decades, including to the police and to the Saddleback Valley Unified School District, but no decisive action was taken.
