	Ohio Family Suing Ky. Baptist Camp Where Alleged Abuse Occurred in 2004 Fox 59 February 10, 2010 http://www.fox59.com/news/sns-ap-ky--baptistcampsued,0,7985255.story SOMERSET, Ky. (AP) — An Ohio family is suing a south-central Kentucky Baptist camp alleging that negligence led to the sexual molestation of one of the family's children. The Commonwealth Journal in Somerset reports that the civil suit against Camp Victory was filed by the family of a sexual abuse victim. The suit stems from a criminal investigation of a minister, Claude Steven Harmon, who was a pastor at a church in Maineville, Ohio, when the incident allegedly occurred in 2004. Police say Harmon confessed to fondling two young boys when his church was using the camp's facilities for a retreat. Harmon is in prison in Ohio in a molestation case in that state. The suit alleges Camp Victory was negligent, leading to suffering by the victim, identified as "J. Doe." An attorney for the camp's owner, George Griffis, did not return a call for comment.
