\u00c9quipe CNA, 30 juil. 2025 \/ 16h39 (CNA).<\/p>\n

Des centaines de victimes d'abus sexuels commis par le clerg\u00e9 ont accept\u00e9 cette semaine un r\u00e8glement massif de la part du dioc\u00e8se de Rochester, dans l'\u00c9tat de New York, ce qui rapproche la fin de la proc\u00e9dure de faillite du dioc\u00e8se, entam\u00e9e il y a plusieurs ann\u00e9es. <\/p>\n

Des documents obtenus par CNA <\/a>montrent un vote quasi unanime en faveur de l'acceptation du plan de r\u00e8glement de $246 millions de dollars propos\u00e9 par le dioc\u00e8se, avec seulement une poign\u00e9e d'abstentions et aucun vote contre. <\/p>\n

Ce paiement intervient apr\u00e8s des ann\u00e9es de tractations devant le tribunal des faillites am\u00e9ricain, alors que le dioc\u00e8se, les survivants et les assureurs dioc\u00e9sains s'effor\u00e7aient de parvenir \u00e0 un montant de r\u00e8glement sur lequel ils pourraient tous s'entendre. <\/p>\n

En 2022, le dioc\u00e8se a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 qu'il verserait $55 millions de dollars dans un fonds d'indemnisation<\/a>, l'\u00e9v\u00eaque Salvatore Matano notant que des \u00ab recouvrements suppl\u00e9mentaires \u00bb pourraient provenir des assureurs dioc\u00e9sains. <\/p>\n

Plus t\u00f4t ce mois-ci, la Continental Insurance Co. a accept\u00e9 de verser $120 millions de dollars au fonds d'indemnisation, portant le total des contributions du dioc\u00e8se, de ses paroisses et des assureurs au chiffre de $246 millions de dollars. <\/p>\n

Le juge des faillites am\u00e9ricain Paul Warren a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 au tribunal cette semaine qu'il avait l'intention d'approuver l'accord en septembre. <\/p>\n

Dans une d\u00e9claration mercredi, le dioc\u00e8se s'est dit \u00ab confiant que le plan de faillite sera approuv\u00e9\u2026 et qu'il aidera \u00e0 apaiser la douleur et la souffrance des survivants, qui ont endur\u00e9 ce processus douloureux pendant six ans \u00bb. Le dioc\u00e8se a d\u00e9pos\u00e9 le bilan pour la premi\u00e8re fois en 2019.<\/p>\n

\u00ab Nous prions pour qu'ils connaissent la paix de J\u00e9sus et que leur foi, si meurtrie par ceux qui ont si gravement trahi leur confiance, soit restaur\u00e9e en Notre Seigneur qui est notre ultime espoir \u00bb, indique la d\u00e9claration. <\/p>\n

Le r\u00e8glement, une fois approuv\u00e9, figurera parmi les versements les plus importants effectu\u00e9s par un dioc\u00e8se am\u00e9ricain dans le cadre d'une proc\u00e9dure d'abus ou de faillite.<\/p>\n

Le dioc\u00e8se de Rockville Centre, dans l'\u00c9tat de New York, d\u00e9tient le record du plus gros versement dioc\u00e9sain aux \u00c9tats-Unis \u00e0 ce jour, apr\u00e8s avoir accept\u00e9 l'ann\u00e9e derni\u00e8re un r\u00e8glement de $323 millions de dollars.<\/a><\/p>\n

Le record am\u00e9ricain pour tout dioc\u00e8se ou archidioc\u00e8se a, quant \u00e0 lui, \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9tabli par l'archidioc\u00e8se de Los Angeles<\/a>, \u00e9galement l'ann\u00e9e derni\u00e8re, lorsqu'il a accept\u00e9 un versement de $880 millions de dollars. <\/p>\n

Dans certains cas, des paroissiens ont contest\u00e9 juridiquement les termes des r\u00e8glements de faillite dioc\u00e9sains. Les catholiques du dioc\u00e8se de Buffalo, dans l'\u00c9tat de New York, ont convaincu plus t\u00f4t ce mois-ci la Cour supr\u00eame de l'\u00c9tat de prononcer un arr\u00eat temporaire<\/a> sur les paiements de r\u00e8glement que le dioc\u00e8se exige des paroisses. Le Vatican examine actuellement un litige concernant les fusions de paroisses dans ce dioc\u00e8se. <\/p>\n

Les dioc\u00e8ses et archidioc\u00e8ses financent les r\u00e8glements \u00e0 partir de diverses sources<\/a>, notamment les contributions des paroisses, les versements d'assurance et la vente de biens dioc\u00e9sains.<\/p>\n
