Anchorage, Alaska - Three men and one woman have added their names to a lawsuit alleging sexual abuse by two priests in rural Alaska villages.

According to the complaint, Father Segundo Llorente and Father Francis Nawn are accused of abusing 10 children. The latest victims include Jack Doe VII, who claims Father Nawn sexually abused him in Scammon Bay.

Jack Doe VIII and Jackie Doe I claim Nawn abused them in Sheldon’s Point, Alaska. And Jack Doe IX claims Father Segundo Llorente sexually abused him in Sheldon’s Point.

Ken Roosa, the plaintiffs’ attorney, says the amended complaint is significant.
