BOSTON (WTW) — A Massachusetts attorney for clergy sex abuse victims released six new names of clerics accused of abuse, saying Wednesday that it shows that a crisis that began a decade ago is far from over.
Mitchell Garabedian said he reached five- or six-figure settlements in all the cases over the past 15 months.
One of the men is living and served in New Jersey. Five are dead and served in various Northeast states, including two who were priests in the Boston Archdiocese.
One of the Boston priests, the Rev. James Lane, reported the notorious abuser John Geoghan to church leaders during the 1980s.
At a news conference, Garabedian singled out the Boston Archdiocese for not disclosing its names first.
