UNCONSCIONABLE TREATMENT OF HAITIAN ABUSE VICTIMS’ ADVOCATE BY LAWYER FOR JESUIT PRIEST

Paul Kendrick of Freeport, Maine, who has championed the cause of dozens of sexual abuse victims of Doug Perlitz at the Haiti-based Project Pierre Toussaint has been served with a subpoena by the lawyer for Fr. Paul Carrier, SJ, one of the principals of the project, former Campus Minister of Fairfield University and Chairperson of the Haiti Fund where the project was birthed and sustained.

The subpoena commands Mr. Kendrick to produce documents, electronically stored information, etc. regarding communications between the abuse victims and Mr. Kendrick in a civil lawsuit filed on behalf of 21 Haitian victims in Connecticut federal court.

Road to Recovery wishes to express its support of Paul Kendrick in his confidential and protected work with courageous and damaged Haiti victims, and its outrage over the request of a lawyer to secure information from those victims and their advocate.
