[Ansteorra] The original complaint filed.

[Rose]

I honestly don't know them, so how can I say what they would have done?

In fact, the SCA did not make any changes until *after* they were sued, despite repeated occurrences of abuse. (Again, not just Schragger.) This is what the SCA had to say about the changes:

"In response to repeated occurrences of the SCA having to deal with abuse of minors by SCA participants, risk to our membership from such 
predatorial behavior, and legal liabilities if we fail to execute proper due diligence, the SCA will be implementing a background check program 
to minimize risk of harm to our people and the organization.

Remember, this announcement was made after the suit.

 
I understand how you feel about your kiddos, but I can't see an attorney taking a contingency case that was based on spite alone. There has to be merit, or there's no chance of winning/earning your fee.
