Criminal defense attorney weighs in Wisconsin tie to Northwestern scandal
Criminal defense attorney weighs in Wisconsin tie to Northwestern scandal

More than a dozen former Northwestern football players have now joined lawsuits against the university following allegations of hazing, sexual abuse and discrimination across the athletic department.

So far, one civil suit against Northwestern leadership and now-fired football Coach Pat Fitzgerald has been filed in Cook County.

Another team of lawyers, including nationally known trial lawyer Ben Crump, have announced they'll be filing their civil suit soon.

According to Northwestern's executive summary of its investigation, some of the abuse may have taken place at Camp Kenosha, the football team's annual summer training program at UW-Parkside in Kenosha.
