Sexual Assaults by Clergy

The prosecution and conviction of the former priests John Hanlon and John Geoghan both of whom served in St. Paul's parish in Hingham, MA. have prompted numerous civil actions against the Boston Archdiocese. Over 200 civil lawsuits have already been settled for over $10,000,000.00 . Many believe this is just the tip of the iceberg of abuse by priest's who have preyed upon innocent children and hidden behind a conspiracy of shame and deceit.

Civil Suit time limitations:

Child victims generally may bring claims until they are 21 years of age or 3 years after the abuse, whichever is later. There are important exceptions however that may allow you to enter a claim much later.

In Massachusetts, victims of childhood sexual abuse involving the rape of a minor, a criminal charge may be brought as late as fifteen years from the date of the rape.
