The settlement, to 1,353 alleged victims, is the largest payout by a US Catholic diocese over decades-old abuse claims.
Los Angeles Archbishop Jose H. Gomez expressed sorrow for the abuse while announcing the settlement on Wednesday.
My hope is that this settlement will provide some measure of healing for what these men and women have suffered.
The agreement caps a quarter-century of litigation against the most populous archdiocese in the US.
