Burn The Churches!

New Orleans Archdiocese agrees to pay nearly $180M to victims of clergy sexual abuse

“This proposed settlement was made in a secret backroom deal that the Archdiocese, the creditors committees and the mediators knew the overwhelming majority of victim-survivors would never agree to and will undoubtedly vote down,” attorneys Soren Gisleson, Johnny Denenea and Richard Trahant said in a statement to The Associated Press. “It makes no sense and is a continuation of the lifetime of abuse the Archdiocese has inflicted on these folks."

The agreement, which would settle a lawsuit filed in 2020, requires approval from the survivors as well as the bankruptcy court and other Archdiocese creditors.

The suit involves more than 500 people who say they were abused by clergy. The case produced a trove of church records said to document years of abuse claims and a pattern of leaders transferring clergy without reporting their alleged crimes to law enforcement.

In 2018 the archdiocese released a list identifying more than 50 clergy members who were removed from the ministry over the years due to “credible accusations” of sexual abuse.

Low-ranking clergy commit sex crimes, & their bosses cover up the sex crimes. The system worked as intended for decades. Sickening. Next time a person of the cloth opens their fat yap tell them to fuck right off.

P.S.: Is some shitheaded Catholic going to call the fucking police & claim I'm making threats? Bring it on, child-fucking sickos & enablers. Burn them all at the stake.
