Clergy sexual abuse has been rampant for decades, with reports of indiscretion dating as far back as 1947. In Pennsylvania alone, 6 Catholic dioceses have been connected to more than 300 accounts of “predator priests” abusing over 1,000 children – and these numbers are likely to grow as more victims come forward. Among the perpetrators:
It’s imperative that these men be held accountable for the terrible acts they’ve committed against trusting children and families of the church. If you were personally victimized, or you know someone who was, do not wait to speak to an attorney about your legal options. The sooner you involve a lawyer, the sooner these criminals will be removed from any position that might allow them to continue their heinous behaviors.
