A former resident of Newfoundland's Belvedere Orphanage, Evans is one
of 40 women suing the nuns who ran the residence over allegations of
physical abuse.
John Caruso thought his trauma within the Roman Catholic Church began and ended with Rev. James Kneale.
The St. Catharines-area priest was convicted of sexually abusing the former altar boy 11 years ago. Caruso and his Fort Erie family sued Kneale, the Diocese of St. Catharines and former bishops for $8.6 million, claiming, among other things, that church officials knew or should have known the priest was a sexual predator.
