(St. Paul, MN) – The sworn testimony of former priest Thomas Adamson has been publicly released by attorneys as a part of a civil lawsuit filed in 2013 in Ramsey County. Adamson’s deposition was taken May 16, 2014 as a part of a civil lawsuit, Doe 1 vs. the Archdiocese of St. Paul & Minneapolis, Diocese of Winona and Adamson.

“No top official, for 30 years, ever asked Thomas Adamson how many kids he abused and who those kids were,” said Doe 1’s attorney Jeff Anderson. “It is both alarming and disturbing and a demonstration of what the priorities were and still are.”

The entire deposition transcript and video clips are available at www.andersonadvocates.com and on YouTube (AndersonAdvocates). A DVD copy of the video deposition is also available at our office.
