Many of the defendants named in lawsuits last week are already the subject of complaints filed under the CVA. A handful of others had been publicly accused of abuse but had not previously been sued until now.
Among them is Sister Janice Nadeau, who served as principal at St. Margaret Mary School in Irondequoit from 1976 to 1985. A Webster woman received a financial settlement in 2019 after she alleged that Nadeau violently, sexually assaulted her when she was 12 years old. The payout was the first in the diocese known to involve an allegation of sexual abuse against a nun.
