In a complaint filed Wednesday in Miami-Dade Circuit Court, the parents, identified only as Mother Doe No. 72 and Father Doe No. 72, say their son, John Doe No. 72, was molested several times last summer during private music lessons in his home by Miguel Cala, who taught music at St. Andrew’s Catholic School and parish in Coral Springs. The boy was 11.
“Cala used his position as a teacher and music minister to identify potential victims, and he used these positions to gain trust of the victims and their families,” states the lawsuit, filed by Aventura attorney Jeffrey Herman.
Herman has filed dozens of sex-abuse lawsuits against the archdiocese, including two similar lawsuits in November and October that claim Cala sexually abused two other boys from the school.
