California will pay $14 million to settle a lawsuit by a former student at the California School for the Deaf who alleged years of sexual abuse by former employee Ricardo Rose. Rose, who had a history of misconduct complaints, was arrested in 2018 and pleaded no contest to charges of child molestation. Reports of his inappropriate conduct had been made prior to the plaintiff's enrollment, but were not addressed until the lawsuit was filed. The school serves around 400 deaf students and relied on state funding for education.
