The Catholic Diocese of Winona-Rochester, Minnesota, has allegedly agreed to settle 145 individuals believed to have been abused sexually with a $21.5 million.

Bishop John Quinn of Winona-Rochester said that “we must never forget the tragic anguish caused by individuals who abused their power and positions of authority.”

“We must stay vigilant in our unwavering commitment to protect the youth in our diocese who rely on priests, deacons, religious and laypeople to keep them safe and provide for their spiritual care,” said the bishop.
