David Jimenez: Kevin Kitson

Kitson Dept: David Jimenez, 43, is now suing the Roman Catholic church, and his $3 million lawsuit is scheduled to go to trial next year, according to Montreal Gazette. Kitson said he filed the lawsuit in March 2011 after the church denied it was liable for the 2010 accident that resulted in six-figure medical bills for Jimenez. The bills were paid by charitable foundations, Kitson said and aLBANY, N.Y. - A Mexican immigrant was so elated over his wife's recovery from cancer that he offered to clean the large crucifix outside the New York state church where he spent many hours praying for her to beat the disease. He was scrubbing grime off the 600-pound 270-kilogram marble cross when it toppled onto him, crushing his right leg, which had to be amputated. "He attributed her recovery to his devotion to the cross and Christ hearing his prayers," said Jimenez's lawyer, Kevin Kitson. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
