Home of woman at center of private Christian school lawsuit vandalized, burglarized and burned

Caitlin Erickson has faced a series of unsettling incidents since becoming a public figure in a class action lawsuit against a former private Christian school in Saskatoon. The lawsuit alleges former students at the Saskatoon Christian Centre Church and Christian Centre Academy, now known as Mile Two Church and Legacy Christian Academy, experienced physical, emotional, and sexual abuse. Erickson, one of the named plaintiffs, has spoken out about her experiences, drawing both support and criticism.

In August, Erickson received a threatening text message referencing Hebrews 12:20, which states, “If even an animal touches the mountain, it must be stoned to death.” The sender warned her to stop speaking to the press or risk her life. Erickson expressed concern over the misuse of scripture to intimidate others.

The threats escalated in late October when Erickson’s home was vandalized. Security cameras were ripped down from her front door and eaves. Fearing for her safety, she and her children relocated to Saskatoon. The following day, she returned with her 15-year-old nephew to care for her dogs and encountered an intruder in her home. They fled the property without seeing the person, but heard movement and escaped to safety.

Later that night, Erickson received a call from an unknown individual who claimed there had been a fire at her home. She disputed the claim, as she had already reported the break-in. The caller confirmed her address by noting she had two dogs, leaving her in distress. The incident has left Erickson shaken and concerned for her family’s safety.

Erickson has not regretted speaking out about her experiences at the former school. She continues to advocate for accountability and justice, emphasizing the need for transparency and support for those who have been harmed. Her case highlights the broader concerns surrounding the treatment of minors in religious institutions and the importance of addressing abuse allegations with care and diligence.

The events surrounding Erickson’s home have raised questions about the safety of individuals involved in legal cases related to abuse. While no charges have been filed against those responsible for the vandalism or the alleged fire, the situation underscores the challenges faced by survivors and advocates in such cases. The community continues to monitor the developments, with a focus on ensuring the well-being of all involved.
