REDACTED

Friday, September 28, 1990

I called REDACTED and she talked continuously for about half an hour. She was coherent but te~ribly distressed. Her talk repeated much of what was in her letter, and she said several times that if I had called six months ago her son would be alright. She said that she had spoken to my secretary, but no one in the office has any recollection of her. She may have spoken to someone in Orange~ or she may have thought I was from Orange.

Dear Mrs. REDACTED

I have read your letter of September 24, 1990 to Archbishop Mahony, and such material is always painful reading. As you are no doubt aware, the Archdiocese did not have prior knowledge of Father Kohnke's activities, and in no way sanctioned them.

We do, however, want to reach out in a pastoral way to those who are suffering. You mentioned that your son REDACTED would wish to contact a therapist, and I would be happy to supply him with names of people who are highly recommended. I have permission to authorize payment for an evaluation of his situation.

Your son is very free to contact me directly, or he may send me a letter by way of you.

I do hope this will be helpful to you, and please know you have my sympathy in this difficult time.

Sincerely yours,

(Rev. Msgr.} Thomas J. Curry Vicar for Clergy

REDACTED • • Called Mrs. m response to the packet of letters we rece1ved from her on March 8, 1991. The letters were of various dates and seemingly incoherent in many points. Her final letter asked that I call her.

She· was hvsterical on the phone when I did call today. Continues to say her son RED~-C~§IJ_ is being held by a maniac. When I said I would be happy to speak with him, she said it was impossible even for her to communicate with him.

Said all she wanted was a financial "settlement," and she would take the money and kidnap REDACTED away from the maniac with whom he was living and get him into the best psychiatric treatment available.

I listened to her for about 20 minutes and when I said I could not send her a "settlement, 11 she said she would have to go to the newspapers and hung up.
