New Settlement in Diocese of Rochester Sex Abuse Case

The last insurance company has settled in the Diocese of Rochester clergy sexual abuse case.

That means the 475 child sex abuse victims will receive a total of $246 million.

The survivors voted unanimously for the Diocese's bankruptcy plan, after voting down a smaller settlement last year.

The suit was filed six years ago, once the window was opened by the state's Child Victims Act in 2019.

A federal court will tally the votes in a hearing next week.
