The Archdiocese of Agana is currently reviewing the libel and slander lawsuit filed against them and Archbishop Anthony Apuron. According to church spokesperson Monsignor Bibi Arroyo, the archdiocese continues to pray for peace, reconciliation, and forgiveness. Last week four of Apuron’s accusers filed the suit to get Apuron to tell the truth about the alleged molestation that occurred decades ago at the Mount Carmel Parish in Agat.

All four accusers – Roy Quintanilla, Walter Denton, Roland Sondia and Doris Concepcion (on behalf of her late son Joseph “Sonny” Quinata) – are represented by Attorney David Lujan. The plaintiffs are seeking damages of $2 million – $500,000 for each of the victims.
