A father complained his child was being sexually abused in mom's household, and that several professionals involved in the case including an attorney were conspiring to hide these facts.

Here is my reply in the hopes that it helps other children and parents to seek justice, and that it helps protect children from abuse.

I'm not an attorney and this is not legal advice.

Fraud

Fraud is both a civil tort and criminal wrong.

In civil litigation, allegations of fraud might be based on a misrepresentation of fact that was either intentional or negligent. For a statement to be an intentional misrepresentation, the person who made it must either have known the statement was false or been as to its truth. The speaker must have also intended that the person to whom the statement was made would rely on it. The hearer must then have reasonably relied on the promise and also been harmed because of that reliance.

The description above appears to include evidence of:

18 U.S. Code § 2251.Sexual exploitation of children

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/2251

These are federal crimes.

Consider an emergency motion to change custody to prevent the abusive parent from having unsupervised access to the child. Illinois but other states are similar:

When There Are Grounds for An Emergency Motion

When considering restricting parental responsibilities the court will consider additional factors and the factors set out below will give you an idea of what the court deems an emergency:

Abuse, neglect, or abandonment of the child;

Abusing or allowing abuse of another person that had an impact upon the child; Use of drugs, alcohol, or any other substance in a way that interferes with the parent’s ability to perform caretaking functions with respect to the child; and Persistent continuing interference with the other parent’s access to the child, except for actions taken with a reasonable, good-faith belief that they are necessary to protect the child’s safety pending adjudication of the facts underlying that belief, provided that the interfering parent initiates a proceeding to determine those facts as soon as practicable.

I would consider a complaint to your state's Bar Association and its State Disciplinary Committee. The ABA has links for each state:

Complaints Against Lawyers

The ABA is not a lawyer disciplinary agency and has no authority to investigate or act upon complaints filed against lawyers. Each state has its own agency that performs that function in regard to lawyers practicing in that state. Locate your state agency from the Directory of State Disciplinary Agencies.

https://www.americanbar.org/groups/professional_responsibility/resources/resources_for_the_public/

Each state has documented rules of professional conduct for attorneys. Most are very similar to the model rules published by the American Bar Association (ABA):

State child support, parenting time, and child protection, and elder abuse are all primarily funded under federal law Title IV-D and Title IV-E. Consider filing complaints.

Possible basis of a class action lawsuit for similar situated people:

WHAT ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF CLASS-ACTION LAWSUITS?

There are many cases and issues that can be brought as class-action lawsuits. Often, class actions fall into one of the following categories:

CIVIL RIGHTS CLASS ACTIONS:

A SINGULARLY EFFECTIVE TOOL TO COMBAT DISCRIMINATION

For over 50 years, class actions have been among the most powerful tools to secure civil rights in America. Brown v. Board of Education, 1 which outlawed school segregation and set the stage for the entire civil rights movement, was a class action lawsuit. More recent examples include the case portrayed in the Hollywood movie “North Country,” based on the case Jenson v. Eveleth Mines and considered to be the first sexual harassment class action lawsuit.
