Archdiocese Paid Out $1.4 M In Now Dismissed Case
CHICAGO, IL -- A priest sex abuse case that dates back more than 20 years has been dismissed. An attorney for Father Czeslaw Przybylo said it's the fist instance in Chicago where an accused priest has been vindicated. Father Czeslaw Przybylo said he went to court to try to clear his name. However, critics argue the case was dismissed not because he was innocent- but because it exceeded the statute of limitations. Father Czeslaw Przybylo spoke with ABC7 about allegations that he molested a 13-year-old boy while serving at Five Holy Martyrs Church in Chicago in the late 1980s. The Archdiocese of Chicago settled the case for more than $1 million.Click Here For The Full Story......
