The story of a promiscuous priest who worked in Alaska decades ago will be featured tonight on CNN's 360 Degrees program.

The Anderson Cooper program starts at 6 p.m. and will show again at 9 p.m. The Rev. Jim Jacobson is being sued in Alaska for child support by two men who say he fathered them but never provided for them as children and by two women who say he sexually assaulted them.

A settlement of the lawsuit is in the works, but lawyers weren't ready Tuesday to release details.

CNN's Web site says the story tonight is about "a predatory priest with 'promiscuity' issues who was turned loose on a needy people, and how the church failed to act."
