Boston church to pay $85 million 9/9/03 by Denise Lavoie AP Boston - "The Boston Archdiocese agreed Tuesday to pay $85 million to settle more than 500 lawsuits from people who claim Roman Catholic priests abused them, a lead attorney in the cases told The Associated Press. It's the largest known payout by a U.S. diocese to settle molestation charges." http://www.suntimes.com/output/news/boston09.html
4 women sue priest, allege sex assaults 9/9/03 by Cathleen Falsani "Patrice Regnier remembers the priest taking her into the bedroom of her parents' Winnetka house to hear her confession. But there was no confession. Instead, she says, the priest sexually assaulted her. He told her the crucifix had come to life and instructed him to do what he was doing to her. He told her God was watching. Regnier was 13, and the Roman Catholic priest was a friend of her devoutly religious family who often said mass in their living room and stayed overnight. The sexual abuse continued for about two years, she said. According to a lawsuit Regnier and three other women filed in a Cook County court Monday, the Rev. John Powell, a Jesuit priest, longtime Loyola University professor and best-selling author of Christian books, sexually abused them between 1966 and 1973." http://www.suntimes.com/output/news/cst-nws-cath09.html
This may be very heavy for survivors. "Joyce Osagiede, a key figure in the police investigation into the voodoo killing of "Adam", the young African boy whose decapitated and limbless torso was found in the Thames two years ago, has said that she and her husband had been setting up branches linked to the cult and that her husband was responsible for a series of black magic killings of the children of devotees." http://www.religionnewsblog.com/4208-.html
