With the closing of a temporary three-year window that lifted the
statute of limitations on allegations of sexual abuse of minors in
Minnesota, a sorry set of statistics has emerged:
Seventy-four claims were made against the Diocese of St. Cloud for clergy sex abuse of minors during the window. Claims were made against 31 members of the clergy who had served in the diocese.
Of 131 parishes in the diocese, 30 were named in the claims.
Eleven clergy members named in the lawsuits weren't on a list of "clergy identified" released by the diocese in 2014.
