Several men made false claims of sexual abuse -Chicago


 

The Archdiocese of Chicago filed a lawsuit on March 24 against several men who made false claims of sexual abuse in order to obtain financial settlements (fraud).

The archdiocese finally understands that "false claims make it necessary to investigate all claims more aggressively".

According to the lawsuit, the defendants include a convicted drug dealer, a convicted murderer, two brothers who are alleged gang members.

The men conspired for years pretending to be victims of the homosexual abuser and defrocked priest Daniel McCormack.

Beginning in 2013, the defendants advised each other on what to say and how to reach attorneys.

According to the lawsuit, they told a jailed collegue in recordings that they needed "some free money" or they could get "paid forever" by the archdiocese.

At the archdiocese, "they have everlasting money."

Another one said that it would be "easy" to bring a claim against the archdiocese, adding: "Everybody can get that s--t. Everybody."

The archdiocese mentioned that a court has already ruled that two other cases were fraudulent, and several others have been abandoned by the plaintiffs and their attorneys.

The Archdiocese of Chicago has paid several millions because of McCormack's homosexual abuse. He pleaded guilty to multiple charges in 2007 and was sentenced to five years in prison. In 2021, he was released from a state psychiatric facility and lives in an apartment in Chicago.
