 The accuser at the center of the Dennis Hastert hush-money case sued the former House Speaker on Monday, saying he never finished paying $3.5 million in cash to settle a sexual abuse allegation. The five-page breach-of-contract complaint contains new details about the case that stretches back to the 1970s, when Hastert was a wrestling coach at Yorkville High School: 
 
 Individual A, then 14, was not yet a student at Yorkville when Hastert, a trusted family friend, invited him to a wrestling camp for high schoolers and then molested him in a motel room, the suit says. In 2008, Individual A had a conversation with another person who said they had been abused by Hastert — and that prompted him to confront his former coach, the court papers say. Hastert agreed to compensate Doe for the trauma he suffered as a result of the admitted sexual molestation and abuse. "We all have our flaws, but Dennis Hastert has very few," Delay wrote. He pleaded guilty to structuring cash withdrawals to get around requirements that the bank report big transactions to the federal government. The sordid allegations came to light not because any of Hastert's former students came forward but because a bank worker became concerned about withdrawals the retired lawmaker made between 2010 and 2014 — $9,000 at a time from four banks, a pattern known to regulators as "structuring." Indeed, the lawsuit says that when Individual A asked Hastert for $3.5 million in compensation for "pain, suffering and harm," he suggested bringing in two confidantes and attorneys to draft a "legal" agreement. "But Hastert preferred to keep the negotiations strictly confidential promising to 'pay every last dollar' of their agreed monetary settlement," the suit alleges.
– A new legal problem has surfaced for Dennis Hastert ahead of his Wednesday sentencing on financial charges related to payment of hush money over alleged sexual abuse: He never finished the payments, and the accuser has filed a lawsuit. The plaintiff, who says he was 14 when Hastert molested him decades ago, wants the remaining $1.8 million of the $3.5 million he says the former House speaker promised him as compensation, the New York Times reports. According to the lawsuit, which refers to the accuser as "James Doe," Hastert agreed to compensate the man for "trauma he suffered as a result of the admitted sexual molestation and abuse." In the years after the molestation, Doe suffered "severe panic attacks which led to periods of unemployment, career changes, bouts of depression, hospitalization, and long-term psychiatric treatment," the suit states. The agreement was made after the former student confronted Hastert in 2008. After suspicious transactions attracted the attention of the FBI, Hastert claimed he was being extorted by a former student, but investigators recorded a conversation between him and the accuser and decided the agreement did not constitute blackmail. According to the lawsuit, the accuser even suggested bringing in lawyers to draft a formal agreement for compensation, but Hastert "preferred to keep the negotiations strictly confidential," NBC News reports. Other accusations of abuse during Hastert's days as a high school wrestling coach in Illinois will be aired at the sentencing hearing, though the statutes of limitations for sexual misconduct charges expired long ago, NPR notes. Prosecutors have recommended a prison sentence of up to six months.
