EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — A 43-year-old woman has filed a lawsuit in federal court against a former probation officer now imprisoned — making her the 12th person to sue him.
The Eugene Register-Guard reports that the woman filed the suit against 52-year-old Mark John Walker last month. It also seeks damages from the U.S. Department of Parole and Probation.
A dozen people have accused Walker of using his position to manipulate and/or sexually abuse them while under his supervision.
Walker is serving a 10-year prison term after pleading guilty last spring to sexually abusing five probationers between April 2005 and June 2009.
