MINNEAPOLIS – The Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis says it has paid more than $8.8 million in the past 10 years over clergy sexual abuse and other misconduct by priests.
In its annual financial report Thursday, the archdiocese says about $3.2 million went for room, board and living expenses for priests and ex-priests accused of sexual abuse or other misconduct.
The report also says about $2.5 million went to settlements for victims, and nearly $2.3 million paid for counseling and other support services for victims.
Those totals don’t include insurance payments.
