"Jesuit group settles abuse suit"

"$166.1 million going to Native American, Alaska Native victims"

"About $6 million ... is being set aside for future claims"


From the San Antonio Express - News / A.P -- Saturday, March 26, 2011.

Byline: Donna Gordon Blankinship.

Snippets:

"Many of the abuses happened in remote villages and reservations.

"The [Jesuit] order was accused of using those areas as dumping grounds for problem priests."

Note: as was the case in both Brackettville, Texas and Rock Springs, Texas. The first under Archbishop Flores and the second under Archbishop Gomez.

"California attorney John Manley, who represented some of the abuse victims, said the Jesuits knowingly put molesters in a position to abuse children.

"Manley said It wasn't an accident. The evidence showed they did it on purpose and it was rape..."

Good point, SeƱor! :)
