It took years of exhaustive investigative and legal work by Darrell Cochran and his legal team to uncover overwhelming evidence of horrendous child sexual and physical abuse at the Kiwanis Vocational Home in Southwest Washington. The fight has been long, but resulted in settlements for clients with Kiwanis and Washington State totaling nearly $120 million to date (and counting.)

Like legal archaeologists, Cochran and his team painstakingly dug for and unearthed the horrible truth about KVH, one piece at a time – despite intense efforts by a cast of conspirators hellbent on hiding the truth. The previously hidden letters, reports, photos and other evidence bring into focus over a decade of widespread child abuse and financial corruption we proved to have been widely known by Kiwanis and the state of Washington.
