Confidential settlement – elementary school child molested in school

John Elliott Leighton was retained by the parents of a third grade girl who was molested as she walked to the restroom of her school.  The man came up behind her, so she never saw his face and could not identify him.  He was never apprehended.  Mr. Leighton obtained a confidential settlement for the child from the school.
