USC agrees to pay
$215M to settle doctor
sexual abuse claims
LOS ANGELES (AP)
— The University of South-
ern California said Friday
that it would pay $215 mil-
lion to settle claims of sex-
ual abuse and harassment
by a school gynecologist,
but lawyers for hundreds
of the accusers say it’s not
enough money and the uni-
versity has yet to fully dis-
close what it knew about
the doctor’s behavior.
The tentative settle-
ment, which needs a
judge’s approval, will pro-
vide compensation rang-
ing from $2,500 up to
$250,000 to women who
say Dr. George Tyndall
abused them between 1988
and 2016, USC Interim
President Wanda Austin
said in a statement.
About 500 current and
former students have now
made accusations against
Tyndall and filed various
lawsuits. They contend he
routinely made crude com-
ments, took inappropriate
photos, forced them to strip
naked and groped them
under the guise of medical
treatment.
The settlement specifi-
cally applies to a pending
federal class-action lawsuit
that involves a fraction of
the overall accusers, but is
open to every woman who
ever had an appointment
with the gynecologist.
Three attorneys rep-
resenting
nearly
300
alleged victims say they’re
strongly advising their cli-
ents against joining the
federal action so they can
continue their fight in state
court instead.
“The only guaran-
teed number in this case
is $2,500 — $2,500 won’t
even get you a 50-yard-
line seat at a USC football
game, let alone compen-
sate somebody for being
sexually assaulted by their
doctor when they were 18
or 17,” said John Manly,
an attorney who represents
180 accusers.
Attorney Gloria Allred,
who represents 36 women
who have accused Tyndall,
said in a statement that the
amount of money under
the proposed settlement is
“way too minimal.”
“In our opinion, for
what some of the victims
went through, this is a nui-
sance amount and may not
properly compensate vic-
tims for what some of them
have suffered,” she said.
Manly also criticized
the proposed settlement
as failing to hold USC
accountable and an effort
to cap future monetary
damages.
“We still don’t know
when did USC first know,
how often were they
warned, what administra-
tors were involved, was
there criminal conduct?”
Manly said. “Our clients,
more than anything, want
those answers and peo-
ple held accountable, not
because it helps their case
but to protect the future
women at USC.”

U.S. government
asks Supreme
Court to halt
climate lawsuit
Woman sues
Bank of America
after losing
$13K in scam
EUGENE
(AP)
—
The federal government
has again asked the U.S.
Supreme Court to intervene
in a climate change lawsuit
filed by a group of young
people that is scheduled to
go to trial in Oregon later
this month.
The
Register-Guard
reports government attor-
neys filed a mandamus peti-
tion Thursday seeking to
dismiss the case, which
aims to force the govern-
ment to take action on cli-
mate change.
A group of 21 young
people filed the suit in 2015,
arguing that the federal gov-
ernment’s actions violate
their constitutional rights.
The suit seeks a court order
directing the government to
stop permitting, authorizing
and subsidizing fossil fuels,
and to work to stabilize the
climate.
The trial is scheduled to
begin Oct. 29 in U.S. Dis-
trict Court in Eugene.
PORTLAND (AP) —
An Oregon woman is suing
Bank of America, claiming a
Hillsboro branch transferred
$13,000 from her account to
scammers.
The
Oregonian/Ore-
gonLive reports Rebekah
“Becky” Adams filed the
lawsuit this week, claiming
a teller failed to inform her
that the money she wanted
transferred was actually sent
to a different Bank of Amer-
ica account.
The lawsuit claims the
teller transferred the money
despite the bank placing a
flag on the account, warning
of past suspicious or fraudu-
lent activity.
According to the suit,
Adams tried to stop the trans-
fer, and the bank claimed
it was able to “delete” the
transfer and that her money
was back in her account.
A Bank of America rep-
resentative says the com-
pany is investigating the
complaint.
Jose De La Luz-Hernandez, 45, and Eliz-
abeth Garcia-Castillo, 38, both of Herm-
iston.
Kyle Lawrence Homer, 35, and Danielle
Kathleen Dickason, 31, both of Hermis-
ton.

Crowder, 32, both of Hermiston.

ana Dawn Radebaugh, 24, both of Walla
Walla.
