USC settles lawsuits with 80 men who say a former school doctor sexually abused them

The University of Southern California has settled lawsuits with 80 former students, mostly gay and bisexual men, who accuse a male former school doctor of sexual misconduct. The agreement for an undisclosed sum follows settlements by the Los Angeles school to pay more than $1 billion to thousands of women who say they were sexually abused by another male doctor at the student health center.

Attorneys for the alleged victims say the cases date back to as early as 1997, with the latest occurring in 2018. The terms of the settlement were not disclosed.
