Episode Details

Survivors of decades of sexual abuse at Interlochen Center for the Arts are demanding legal justice, as attorneys push Michigan lawmakers to amend state law blocking civil lawsuits. A damning 97-page report uncovered 47 adults—including faculty, board members, and donors—who enabled grooming and secrecy from the 1950s to the 2000s. Interlochen apologized and vowed to never tolerate predators, but survivors’ attorney called the report a vital first step—and a plea for accountability. He honored their courage in speaking out, highlighting the lasting trauma inflicted during formative years, and urged the institution to take responsibility. The push for legislative change aims to finally give survivors a path to justice, healing, and compensation.
