More on Mahony's XXX Files

THE MERCURY NEWS reports ...

Lawyers for the archdiocese and the plaintiffs blame the impasse on the insurers, which have sued to gain documents about the alleged sexual abuse by priests.

"We are not able to get anywhere near the levels of sincere participation from our carriers," said archdiocese attorney J. Michael Hennigan.

It would appear that Hennigan's statement contradicts what was reported in THE TIDINGS on September 9, 2005. The unsigned editorial stated:

In the first place, according to Cardinal Roger Mahony, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles will not declare bankruptcy. The Archdiocese is adequately insured to deal with all of the cases against it.

It has been estimated that the claims against Mahony's Archdiocese could amount to around 1 billion dollars.

Maybe it's time for another pow-wow at Fort Mahony.
