Her attorneys asked that she remain anonymous because she was a minor and faced death threats from former students and alumni. Michael Delaney was the attorney representing the $62,000-ayear boarding school. Prout became an overnight public figure. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Five years after the Prouts settled their dispute with the school, President Joe Biden now wants Delaney to become a federal Judge. His nomination to the First Circuit Court of Appeals has left Democrats in a difficult spot. They are stuck between supporting one of their party\u2019s judicial nominees, and supporting survivors of sexual assault.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>They seem to have chosen the former, despite Prout&#8217;s parents&#8217; pleas to derail Delaney&#8217;s nomination. Seven out of the 11 Democrats in the Senate Judiciary Committee did not attend Prout&#8217;s hearing before them earlier this month. And lawmakers like New Hampshire Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D.)\u2014who once lauded Prout&#8217;s transformation from a high-school student into a young activist\u2014are nowhere to be found.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Prout family has been entrusted with the task of making sure that Delaney is, in the words Chessy\u2019s father Alex Prout. &#8220;an ambulance-chasing attorney.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is a time to do the courageous thing and withdraw this nomination,&#8221; Washington Free Beacon spoke with Alex Prout.
