Clergy sex abuse accusers are giving the Catholic Church's attorneys more details and describing more instances of abuse, mostly by priests, during interviews to help evaluate claims for possible settlement, a Seattle-based attorney representing some plaintiffs said.
This interview process is much like a deposition. Each person is interviewed for an average of two hours.
It is conducted by lawyers for the defendants, including the Archdiocese of Agana, the Boy Scouts of American, Capuchin Franciscans and others associated with the Catholic Church. Victims' attorneys are present during these interviews.
