More than 40 people have relayed stories of sexual abuse that occurred at St. George’s School in Rhode Island in the 1970s and ’80s, two attorneys representing the victims told The Boston Globe .

The attorneys, Eric MacLeish and Carmen Durso, and several victims plan to hold a press conference on Tuesday to call for a truly independent investigation into the alleged abuse, the Globe reports.

A report last month from St. George’s School said that an independent investigation had found 26 instances of abuse by six separate school employees from that time period. A total of 23 students were abused by just three employees, the report found.

However, several victims said that the “independent” investigative lawyer is the law partner of the prep school’s legal counsel.

Hawk Cramer, who told the Globe he was molested by a faculty member as a student at St. George’s, criticized the report as “just damage control.”
