Index to Testimony
Rev. Rudy Kos Liability Trial
134th Dist. Court, Dallas, Texas
5-15-97 through 7-18-97

History of Case from San Diego News:  "To Do Nothing Is Not a Solution"

(The following documents are made available through the work of Claudette and Cliff Allen who secured them so that this court record may be made available to the public. Each of these 200-300+ page files with a day of testimony may take a minute or more to fully load on a computer with a phone modem. The files below with the date and/or page numbers hyperlinked, and larger in bold, are available online. The identities of the sexual abuse victims and their families have been changed to the John Doe # counterparts used in other places in the court record. All Jane Doe names and John Doe names  #12 and above are of victims, often of other priests, who were not plaintiffs in this lawsuit. It is urgent that we be told if information identifying a victim, or their family, has been overlooked

Grace in truth, not in secrecy.
