The Archdiocese of Seattle said yesterday that it had reached a settlement of $1.8 million with 12 people who had been sexually abused as children by two priests.
The abuse dates to the 1960s, according to a statement that the archdiocese issued last night. It did not name the priests involved.
The settlement was reached through mediation talks, the archdiocese said.
A spokesman for the archdiocese could not be reached for comment last night.
Archbishop Alexander Brunett apologized to the victims in the statement.
