Less than a year after the Roman Catholic Diocese of Gallup, N.M.,
released the names of 31 priests church officials admit had sexually
abused their parishioners, there is now a possibility that some of those
victims may not receive the financial compensation owed to them.
The controversy surrounds the abuse committed by Clement Hageman, who was a priest from 1930 until his death in 1975, and who was known by the Diocese of Gallup, as a pedophile for most of those years. Despite that knowledge, the diocese assigned Hageman to Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church in Holbrook from 1942 to 1952, and to Madre de Dios Parish in Winslow from 1965 to 1975.
