Who Is Abdurahman Milani?
Abdurahman Milani, 27, a teacher at Marshall Middle School in Houston, Texas, was arrested for inappropriate sexual contact with teenage girls at school. According to one of the victim’s mother, her daughter suffers from significant trauma and no longer wishes to attend school. Milani appears to have used classic power and control tactics while grooming the girls, promising good grades in exchange for sexual favors.
Abdurahman Milani is charged with six counts of third-degree unlawful sexual misconduct with a minor.
Given Milani’s exposure to children as a teacher, other victims are highly likely.
We realize how scary disclosing these types of crimes can be. You are not alone.

How Can A Civil Lawsuit Help Victims Seek Justice For The Trauma They May Have Experienced By Abdurahman Milani?
There are many misunderstandings about why a survivor of sexual abuse would choose to file a civil lawsuit. Child sexual abuse takes away so much from the survivors and families impacted. Our society still struggles to find ways to repair the harm done by individual perpetrators and institutions that have covered up child sexual abuse.
Filing a civil case can be an essential step for survivors and their families in their journey to slowly rebuild their lives and create pathways to healing. Motivation for filing a civil suit is questioned and unfairly stereotyped as “all about money.” Filing a civil lawsuit can cast survivors as “money hungry” and is weaponized to shame and blame them even more. This couldn’t be further from the truth for survivors of child sexual abuse. The civil justice system offers victims more than just monetary benefits. It gives survivors access to justice, validation, exposure, confrontation, and ultimately some resolution. The resolution allows survivors of sexual abuse to understand and process what happened and create a new path forward without confusion, questions, and fear.
