Minneapolis Man Files Lawsuit 35 Years After Abuse

Case ID: 4685
Category: Family
 
Last Update: 03/02/2006
Country:
 

More than 35 years after he claims a Roman Catholic priest molested him at a Downers Grove parish, 52-year-old George Knotek filed a class-action lawsuit against the Diocese of Joliet, saying its bishops "revictimized him" for decades.

Lawyers for George Knotek filed the class-action lawsuit in DuPage County Court in part to try to force Bishop Joseph Imesch, head of the Joliet diocese, to disclose the names of all priests accused of sexually abusing minors.

The lawsuit, which does not seek monetary damages, also asks that the diocese turn over all documents regarding clergy molestation of children for court supervision so the documents cannot be destroyed, hidden or "misplaced."
