ERLANGER, Ky. -- The Covington Diocese plans to lay off some workers this summer as it continues to cut costs while paying out millions to settle sexual-abuse claims.
The plans were announced by Bishop Roger Foys in Friday's edition of the diocesan newspaper, The Messenger. The layoffs are necessary considering the financial situation of the diocese, Foys wrote.
Diocesan spokesman and Messenger editor Tim Fitzgerald wouldn't elaborate on what financial situation Foys was referring to in the article.
