Abuse victim James Niksik, from St. Michael's, Alaska, holds a photo of himself and a friend at their first communion, during a news conference to discuss the $50 million settlement with the Oregon Province of the Society of Jesus for sexual abuse claims in Portland, Oregon November 20, 2007. An agreement by Oregon Jesuits to settle sexual abuse claims in Alaska is the largest ever by a Roman Catholic religious order and one of the few successful settlements against any order, lawyers and victims rights advocates said on Monday. In background are abuse victims Elsie Boudreau, of Anchorage, Alaska and Alphonsus Abouchuk of St. Michael's, Alaska.
