One of the Christian Brothers at Bergen Catholic High School was known
to ask students to pull down their pants and underwear so he could
discipline them with a leather strap or leer at their naked backsides.
Another was feared for his habit of pinning students in their desks as
he reached his hand down the back of their pants.
“These are Christ’s representatives on earth,” a former student, Peter
Alrutz, said he was told when he attended the school in the early 1960s.
“You’re taught to do whatever they tell you. And then all of a sudden
the people who are supposed to be protecting you are abusing you.”http://www.northjersey.com/news/advocates-for-alleged-child-sex-abuse-victims-announce-settlement-with-bergen-catholic-h-s-1.1648751
