Gerety is gratuitously accused of having “sexually abused” a 5-year-old girl on church grounds in 1976 – this is 45 years ago when Gerald Ford (+2006) was the US President.
The unconvincing lawsuit says that Archbishop Gerety was delivering meals to the home of the accuser who is now 49 years old, resides in Pennsylvania, and suffers from serious psychological problems. Gerety allegedly volunteered “to look after the little girl” while her mother was at work. Fittingly, the accuser waited until her mother, the main witness, had died.

With the rampant anti-Catholic sentiment promoted by the media/ entertainment, and a left-wing state like NJ, the safest course for the Archdiocese would be to "buy off" accuser for much less. This is probably the attorney's primary strategy.
It's "compromise" in its foulest form. Start high and haggle down a bit. As for the truth? In this situation, and so many others like it, Pontius Pilate said …More
