More than a dozen new lawsuits have been filed against Hanna Boys Center of Sonoma, by men who say they were abused by Catholic priests and staff there when they were children.
ABC7 News has covered the residential treatment center run by the Catholic Church, including a report from 1998 featuring Hanna's director at the time, Father John Crews, who said, "I tell the guys 'You're not a man yet, but you're gonna be.'"
Love tells us the abuse was common knowledge among staff during his time at Hanna Boys Center. Dr. Tim Norman was clinical director then. He told the I-Team he had to fire staff for what he called "grooming behavior." Dan McNevin from the Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests tells the I-Team, "Crews has now a long list of victims -- it's dozens. They keep coming out."
We asked the Bishop of the Santa Rosa Diocese, Robert Vasa, to discuss these issues, but he declined and referred us to Hanna Boys Center. A state law gives survivors of clergy sexual abuse until the end of next month to file lawsuits, no matter how long ago the abuse occurred.
