Report: Former Head of Troubled Youth Home Accused of Sexual Assault
Protesters plan to gather outside the location at 11 a.m. on Wednesday.

The former CFO of Italian Home for Children in Jamaica Plain is under investigation for alleged sexual abuse, NECN reported Wednesday.
The Italian Home for Children is a home for troubled youth. FOX25 spoke with the accuser’s attorney who claimed George Forte, Jr. sexually abused him at the location for over a period of three years.
Officials at the Boston home said in a statement that they were notified about the allegation in 2014, hired a counsel to investigate the claims, and “is wholly devoted to the safety and well-being of the children in our care, and does not condone any behavior at odds with our all-important mission.”
