Het bisdom Brooklyn zal een brede schikking nastreven met meer dan 1.000 vermeende slachtoffers van misbruik door de kerk, zei bisschop Robert Brennan op 12 februari, waarbij een bekende rechter uit Californi\u00eb zal helpen bij het bemiddelen in het proces. <\/p>\n

In tegenstelling tot veel Amerikaanse bisdommen die te maken hebben gehad met honderden claims wegens seksueel misbruik en tientallen miljoenen dollars aan schikkingskosten, heeft het bisdom Brooklyn geen faillissement aangevraagd. Maar het bisdom lanceerde in 2017 een compensatieprogramma, dat Brennan in zijn brief van 12 februari<\/a> zei al \u201cmeer dan 500 slachtoffer-overlevenden meer dan $100 miljoen heeft uitbetaald.\u201d <\/p>\n

Het bisdom \u201cis nu van plan een mondiale oplossing na te streven voor alle ongeveer 1.100 resterende zaken,\u201d schreef Brennan. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe zullen ernaar streven om alle gegronde claims snel op te lossen en de tijd, kosten en emotionele belasting voor slachtoffer-overlevenden die door individuele rechtszaken zouden worden veroorzaakt, te vermijden,\u201d zei de bisschop. <\/p>\n

Het bisdom heeft overlegd met advocaten die slachtoffers van misbruik vertegenwoordigen, zei hij. Daarnaast zal rechter Daniel Buckley \u2014 een voormalig rechter van de Superior Court van Los Angeles County \u2014 helpen bij het bemiddelen in het proces. <\/p>\n

Buckley heeft eerder gewerkt met de aartsbisdommen van zowel New York<\/a> en Los Angeles<\/a> bij het bemiddelen in hun eigen schikkingen. <\/p>\n

De in Massachusetts gevestigde bemiddelaar Paul Finn zal ook met het bisdom Brooklyn werken, zei Brennan. Finn heeft bemiddeld bij misbruikschikkingen in Boston; Milwaukee; Rochester, New York, en elders. <\/p>\n

Brennan zei dat het bisdom Brooklyn zal inzetten op \u201ckostenbesparingen en het opzijzetten van aanzienlijke fondsen om slachtoffer-overlevenden te compenseren,\u201d een proces dat volgens hem \u201cmoeilijke financi\u00eble keuzes\u201d met zich mee zal brengen. <\/p>\n

Maar \u201chet bisdom is vastbesloten om alle gegronde claims eerlijk te compenseren,\u201d zei hij. <\/p>\n

Het bisdom \u201cblijft bidden voor de slachtoffer-overlevenden, hun families en alle anderen die getroffen zijn door seksueel misbruik,\u201d schreef de bisschop. <\/p>\n

Het nieuws komt enkele maanden nadat het aartsbisdom New York onthulde dat het beoogde meer dan $300 miljoen op te halen<\/a> voor overlevenden van misbruik als onderdeel van zijn eigen \u201cmondiale schikking\u201d met slachtoffers.<\/p>\n

Het aartsbisdom startte ontslagen onder het personeel en een vermindering van 10% in het werkingsbudget van het aartsbisdom, volgens kardinaal Timothy Dolan, evenals de \u201cverkoop van aanzienlijke vastgoedactiva.\u201d<\/p>\n
