A suburban mom has filed a lawsuit against a female teacher who worked at a Chicago church and religious camp in Wisconsin. The woman says she was sexually abused when she was a teenager and the woman she’s accusing has worked with children for decades.
“I am very passionate about Jesus,” says this Cherie Carlson in an online video.
The YouTube video shows Carlson conducting a religious seminar.
Carlson is now a middle school teacher in Buffalo Grove but she used to work at the North Side Gospel Center in Chicago in the ’90s, and Camp Awana in Fredonia, Wisc.
This woman, whose identity we agreed to conceal, says Carlson was her spiritual mentor back then but began to sexually abuse her when she was 16-years-old.
