For $82,000, a woman has settled her unusual civil case against St. Louis University, the Jesuits and ex-SLU prez Fr. Daniel O’Connell. She reports having been sexually abused by the priest when she was a 20 year-old student. Her suit, however, charged Catholic officials with “breach of contract” because they promised her they’d keep Fr. O’Connell out of “public ministry” but reneged. (It’s believed to be only the second abuse-related “breach of contract” ever settled against the church hierarchy.)
