Chicago Archdiocese Settles Sex Abuse Case For $3.2M

The Chicago Sun-Times reported yesterday that the Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago has reached a settlement of nearly $3.2 million with the victim of sex abuse by former priest Daniel McCormack. The suit charges that the archdiocese and Cardinal Francis George failed to remove McCormack from contact with children even though they knew that he had sexually abused minors.
