Mariano Rivera and his wife Clara are involved in a lawsuit accusing them of covering up sexual abuse of a minor. Filed in Westchester County, the lawsuit claims the Riveras neglected to act on abuse they allegedly knew about, affecting a girl who was active in a church they founded. The Riveras have denied the accusations, emphasizing their intolerance for child abuse and stating that the claims lack truth. Clara Rivera allegedly recommended the girl for a program in a sister church where the abuse reportedly occurred.
Mariano and Clara Rivera do not tolerate child abuse of any kind, and allegations that they knew about or failed to act on reports of child abuse are completely false.
The suit says that the girl was an active member of the Refuge for Hope Church in New Rochelle, N.Y., which the Riveras helped found and where Clara Rivera was a pastor.
