Horrific details of Cesar Chavez rape scandal finally made public
NY Post
Bombshell rape accusations against revered labor leader Cesar Chavez were revealed on Wednesday, a day after celebrations in his name were canceled across California. A report from the New York Times detailed accounts from multiple women, two of whom said they were children when Chavez began sexually abusing them.
Ana Murguia claimed the abuse started when she was just 13, while Debra Rojas said she was first assaulted at 12 and later raped at 15.
Both women described a pattern of grooming that began when they were as young as 8 or 9 years old.
Murguia said she was repeatedly molested in Chavez’s office, leaving her deeply traumatized and suicidal as a teenager. Rojas recounted being taken to a motel during a union march, where she said Chavez assaulted her.
Their claims are supported by interviews, documents, and people they confided in over the years, according to the Times investigation.
In a stunning revelation, longtime activist Dolores Huerta — Chavez’s closest ally — also alleged he sexually assaulted her, a claim she had never previously made public.
