Former Sioux City bishop named in sexual abuse lawsuit By AP 6/8/05 "Iowa City, Ia. - A former principal of Regina High School who later went on to become bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Sioux City was accused of abusing a former student in a lawsuit filed Wednesday. The lawsuit names retired Bishop Lawrence Soens and the Diocese of Davenport, which last fall paid $9 million to settle 37 lawsuits that accused several eastern Iowa priests of sexual abuse at various times and parishes in the last 50 years." http://desmoinesregister.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050608/NEWS/50608008/1002/NEWS01
Church Abuse Payouts Top $1B New York 6/9/05 AP "The cost to the U.S. Roman Catholic Church of sexual predators in the priesthood has climbed past $1 billion, according to tallies by American bishops and an Associated Press review of known settlements. And the figure is guaranteed to rise, probably by tens of millions of dollars, because hundreds more claims are pending. Dioceses around the United States have spent at least $1.06 billion on settlements with victims, verdicts, legal fees, counseling and other expenses since 1950, the AP found. A $120 million compensation fund announced last week by the Diocese of Covington, Kentucky, pushed the figure past the billion-dollar mark. A large share of the costs - at least $378 million - have been incurred in just the past three years, when the crisis erupted in the Boston Archdiocese and spread nationwide." http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2005/06/09/national/main700781.shtml
