NASHVILLE (TN)

NASHVILLE, Tenn. The plaintiffs suing the Roman Catholic Diocese of Nashville over alleged molestation by a former priest say the church is trying to hide many of its assets.
The suit was filed by two men who say a former Nashville priest repeatedly molested them in the early nineties when they were boys.
The diocese has contended it isn't responsible for crimes that occurred years after the priest left the church.
Motions filed by the plaintiffs this week claim that diocese lawyers have previously said individual parishes belong to the diocese but now contend the parishes are independent financial entities.
