NEW ORLEANS, La. – Nationally renowned civil rights and personal injury attorney Ben Crump today issued a statement in response to a Louisiana jury conviction of John Mack for seven of the eight charges concerning the eight-year-long sexual abuse of two young Black girls, who Crump represents. In addition to these two victims, Crump represents other young victims of Mack who have yet to receive justice.
Attorney Crump released the following statement:
“Today, after years of delayed justice, these young girls, who were only six and eight-years-old when the sexual assault began, can rest assured that John Mack will pay for his disgusting crimes against them. This man robbed two young Black girls of their childhood when he repeatedly raped them over the course of several years…a crime disgusting beyond comparison. If this semblance of justice brings any ounce of comfort to Mack’s victims and prevents even one person from sexually abusing a child and thinking they will get away with it, then we can consider the jury’s verdict today a victory.”
