Ohio State Settles Sex Abuse Cases

Ohio State University has agreed to a $100 million settlement with nearly 300 former students who accused a campus doctor of sexual assault.

This brings the total payouts in the scandal to $128 million, following years of legal battles and a previous settlement.

The university has been embroiled in legal battles for years over the alleged abuse by Dr. Richard Strauss.

This latest settlement aims to provide some measure of justice for the survivors.

The case highlights the ongoing challenges of addressing historical sexual abuse within institutions.
