A Minnesota woman has filed a lawsuit against the Zion Lutheran Church in Hopkins alleging that she was sexually abused as a child in the 1970s.
The victim says she was abused by youth minister John Huchthausen starting in 1974 when she was 12 years old. She was a parishioner at the church at the time.
The civil complaint was filed in Hennepin County and alleges negligence against the church for exposing her to the alleged abuse and for failing to properly supervise Huchthausen.
