Description
Fourteen year-old J.M.Y. was sexually assaulted by Al- Hellou at Al-Hellous Tacoma apartment. At the time, Al-Hellou was employed as a manual laborer rehabilitating vacant apartments in Tumwater. J.M.Y. lived at an apartment on the same block as the one on which Al- Hellou was working at the time of the assault; J.M.Y. met Al-Hellou at the apartment building being rehabilitated. Gibson & Wise, Al-Hellous employer, was aware that Al-Hellou had been convicted of child molesting in Texas. Betty Y., as guardian for J.M.Y., sued Gibson & Wise for negligently keeping Al-Hellou as an employee after they learned of his Texas conviction. Finding no proximate cause, the trial court granted summary judgment for Gibson & Wise. Holding that Gibson & Wise owed no duty to J.M.Y., we affirm.
