Attorneys bring new allegations of sexual abuse of incarcerated minors at Denney Youth Center
A new lawsuit has been filed against Snohomish County alleging sexual abuse of incarcerated minors at Denney Youth Center and Denney Juvenile Justice Center.

The plaintiffs allege that they were subjected to invasive and sexualized searches, and that their reports of abuse were ignored or met with retaliation.
