Predatory Nuns: Sexual Abuse in North American Catholic Sisterhoods Titley Brian
Since the first scandals broke in the mid-1980s, the sexual misconducts of priests have cost the Catholic Church in America more than $4 billion in compensation settlements and incalculable damage to its reputation. The depredations of these nuns took place in convent novitiates, orphanages, boarding schools for Native Americans, and in Catholic schools, both elementary and secondary. Although their crimes have attracted far less attention, predatory nuns have also caused harm.
Mothers superior were outspoken in their refusal to accept responsibility for the crimes committed under their watch, and their inclination was to close ranks and protect the predators, endangering many children and Their victims, male and female, ranged in age from six-year-olds to young adults.This book focuses on the criminal behavior of North American nuns and the responses from church leadership.
