Gonzalez was being investigated at that time by police in Marion County, Oregon, for viewing child pornography.[3] Sevilla knew about the investigation, but hired Gonzalez anyway. Police later notified Sevilla that they had filed charges against Gonzalez, but the diocese did not follow up on the report.[4]

The suit alleged that the diocese had been negligent in checking Ramirez's background when he applied to enter the priesthood.[6] Ramirez fled to Mexico after the incident, where he became an Anglican priest. Sevilla did not notify Ramirez's Anglican archbishop about the alleged crimes until 2005.[7]
