Immigrant 'abused by Catholic priests'
A man who immigrated to the US from Cuba 25 years ago has accused five Catholic priests, a seminary student and an archdiocese employee of sexual abuse, his lawyer said.
The man who was identified only as John Doe number 20 said the abuse took place after he arrived in the US as part of the Mariel boatlift in 1980 and sought shelter at the Catholic church of Opa-Locka north of Miami, according to attorney Jeffrey Herman.
The plaintiff insists one of the priests paid him $US 100 in hush money.
