YDC Lawsuits Are A Giant Web of Corruption, Fraud and Greed

Effective today, the Granite Eagle Press has dedicated a section of its website where readers can access all of the research, columns and opinion pieces we have published related to the YDC lawsuits. This dedicated section will also provide facts about the YDC lawsuits, as well as thought provoking questions that no other New Hampshire news outlet has asked or reported on. You can access the new section of our website by visiting www.graniteaglepress.com/ydc or www.ydctruth.com 

Local media outlets have failed New Hampshire residents by failing to report both sides of the YDC lawsuit story. They have sided with the thousands of alleged victims and refused to ask the tough questions and expose what I consider to be one of the biggest cases of fraud ever seen in New Hampshire. New Hampshire residents have been let down and should be dismayed.

WMUR, which many consider to be one of New Hampshire’s most trusted news sources, is the biggest failure. They continually report on the YDC lawsuits from the victims side and fail to tell both sides of the story. It has been 100% biased reporting and it’s unfortunate so many people believe what they see and hear on WMUR.

WMUR refused to ask the tough questions and they even hosted interviews with alleged YDC victims who publicly told stories about their alleged abuse. They never interviewed former YDC staff or anyone with an opposing view and refused to respond to multiple requests to host a debate between myself and attorneys who represented the alleged victims. WMUR is a pathetic excuse for a news outlet and all New Hampshire residents should take note and consider where they get their news in the future.

What’s most interesting about the YDC lawsuits and WMUR’s lack of ethical reporting is that Adam Sexton, WMUR’s Political Director and host of CloseUp is married to Amanda Grady Sexton, the Director of Public Affairs for the New Hampshire Coaltion Against Domestic and Sexual Violence (NHCADSV). She is also a City Councilor in Concord, NH. 

NHCADSV has been intricately involved in the YDC lawsuits, successfully lobbying to remove the statute of limitations for civil suits, referring YDC victims to attorneys and training investigators and law enforcement. NHCADSV has been involved in Governor’s and AG’s commissions on domestic, sexual violence and child abuse. They also work closely with DCYF to craft media statements and control the narrative people consuming news in New Hampshire see and hear.

A coincidence? A conflict of interest? These are just some of the facts the public has never heard before. Trust me, there is a lot more to come. We’re just getting started.

At the Granite Eagle, we remain committed to uncovering and reporting the truth. New Hampshire residents deserve better. The more people we speak to, the more research we do, the more we recognize that the YDC lawsuits are a massive web of corruption, lies and greed.
