Northwest Jesuits reach $166 million sex abuse settlement
PORTLAND, Oregon (Reuters, March 25, 2011) - The Pacific Northwest chapter of the Roman Catholic Church's Jesuit order has agreed to pay $166 million to settle more than 500 [cases of systematic, institutionally-sanctioned rape and] child sexual abuse claims against priests in five states, attorneys said [today].

  • [Why would European Christian monotheists target the psychological destruction of nature-loving, shaman-guided indigenous children through the common war crime of rape and child molestation? These were celibate priests of the Holy Church, not lust-and-hate-filled soldiers. If you can't trust God's servants, how are you to trust the God that sent them?]

The payout by the Society of Jesus, Oregon Province -- part of an agreement to resolve its two-year-old bankruptcy case -- marks one of the biggest settlements to date in the Catholic Church's sexual abuse scandals.

According to lawyers for the victims, it also is the largest ever by a Catholic religious order.

The Oregon Province is the Northwest chapter of the Rome-based Jesuit order and covers Oregon, Washington state, Alaska, Idaho, and Montana.

The victims, most of them Native Americans from remote Alaska Native villages or Indian reservations in the Pacific Northwest, were sexually or psychologically abused as children by Jesuit missionaries in those states in the 1940s through the 1990s, the plaintiffs' attorneys said.

"No amount of money can bring back a lost childhood, a destroyed culture or a shattered faith," lawyer Blaine Tamaki, who represents about 90 victims in the settlement, said in a statement.

"This settlement recognizes that the Jesuits betrayed the trust of hundreds of young children in their care," Tamaki said. "These religious figures should have been responsible for protecting children, but instead raped and molested them." More>>
