"The Archdiocese of Los Angeles has reached a settlement with men and women who survived childhood sexual abuse at the hands of Roman Catholic priests and clergy within their organization.
They have agreed to a payout of $880M to 1353 victims, or around $650k each.
Some of these acts are alleged to have been committed by Archdiocesan clergy, some by lay people, and some by religious order priests and clergy from other dioceses who were serving here.
This is the largest settlement ever paid by the Church to date. Funding for this settlement will be “drawn from reserves, investments, and loans, along with other Archdiocesan assets.” Protestia
