- Abstract:
The article reports that the Los Angeles, California archdiocese has announced to pay $60 million for the settlement of 45 sexual-abuse claims made by its clergy. The settlement is the church's effort to promote healing and reconciliation for those who are abused by clergy members. The fund comes from archdiocese itself, religious orders and insurance coverage. Each claimant is expected to receive $1.33 million, the largest amounts paid to sex-abuse victims by the Catholic church.
