ST. PAUL, Minn. (KMSP) –
Archbishop John Nienstedt will testify Wednesday about his knowledge to clergy sexual abuse.

Nienstedt’s deposition is a response to a lawsuit filed by an alleged victim who claims he was sexually abused by former priest Tom Adamson between 1976 and 1977 when he was assigned to a church in St. Paul Park.

The Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis and the Diocese of Winona are also named in the lawsuit.
