The Catholic Jesuit order apparently used Alaska as their "dumping ground" for their most aggressive pedophiles. With 57 abusers, including Jesuit priests, brothers and employees, apparently a total of 700 Native kids in Alaska were abused, the majority being sex abuse, 30 that I read about being physical abuse.
