This week four families in four states filed lawsuits against MySpace, saying “their underage daughters were sexually abused by adults they met on the site,” the Associated Press reports. Represented by two law firms in Texas, the families in New York, Texas, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina filed separate lawsuits in a Los Angeles Superior Court. They’re seeking damages “in the millions,” one of their attorneys told the AP. Last summer a 14-year-old in Texas sued MySpace for $30 million (see this item). Her case is pending in a Texas state court.
