Over the past several years, numerous lawsuits have been filed against New Hampshire’s juvenile detention facilities, particularly the Sununu Youth Services Center (formerly known as the Youth Development Center), alleging decades of physical and sexual abuse by staff members. These allegations have led to criminal charges, civil lawsuits, and significant settlements.

Since 2020, nearly 1,300 survivors have come forward with harrowing accounts of abuse inside YDC. These allegations include rape, violent beatings, and emotional torture spanning from the 1960s through the 2010s. Lawsuits claim that state employees not only committed these crimes but operated with impunity for decades, protected by a system designed to hide abuse rather than stop it.
