New Tack Attempted in WI Priest Sexual Abuse Claim

The Associated Press reports today on a suit filed in Wisconsin that is attempting to get around the state's restrictive legal doctrines that prevent most suits against the Church for sexual abuse of children by priests. (See prior related posting.) The plaintiff, a man who claims he was sexually abused by a Roman Catholic priest for six years, has sued the Milwaukee Archdiocese for fraud.
