Pennsylvania grand jury finds 50 Roman Catholic priests raped hundreds of children

Hundreds of children in western Pennsylvania were sexually assaulted by about 50 Roman Catholic priests over four decades while bishops covered up their actions, according to a state grand jury report released on Tuesday.

The report found that former Altoona-Johnstown Diocese Bishop James Hogan, who died in 2005, and his successor, Joseph Adamec, who retired in 2011, worked to cover pedophile priests’ tracks and that some local law enforcement agencies also avoided investigating abuse allegations, said state Attorney General Kathleen Kane.

“The heinous crimes these children endured are absolutely unconscionable,” Kane told reporters in unveiling the report, based on a two-year investigation. “These predators desecrated a sacred trust and preyed upon their victims in the very places where they should have felt most safe.”

Revelations that some priests had habitually sexually abused children and that bishops had systematically covered up those crimes burst onto the world stage in 2002 when the Boston Globe reported widespread abuse in the Boston Archdiocese.

That report, which won a Pulitzer Prize and was the subject of last year’s Academy Award-winning film “Spotlight,” set off a global wave of investigations that found similar patterns at dioceses around the world. They led to hefty lawsuits and seriously undermined the church’s moral authority.

No criminal charges will be filed because the alleged incidents are too old to be prosecuted, Kane said.

Advocates for victims of sex assault have long urged lawmakers to give prosecutors more time to bring charges of sex assaults of minors, noting that particularly in the case of assaults by members of the clergy, victims can take years to come forward.

The report contains explicit details of scores of attacks, naming perpetrators, many of whom have since died. Many of the surviving priests were still serving parishes at the time the investigation began, Kane said, but all have since been removed by the current bishop.

“This is a painful and difficult time,” current Altoona-Johnstown Bishop Mark Bartchak said in a statement. “I deeply regret any harm that has come to children.

“We’re saddened but not the least bit surprised,” said David Clohessy, director of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests. “It proves what we’ve long maintained: that even now, under the guise of ‘reform,’ bishops continue to deceive parishioners and the public about their ongoing efforts to hide abuse.”

Adamec, the retired bishop, did not respond to a request for comment.

Jury Decided Bishop Hid Priest's Sex Abuse for 40 years http://youtu.be/7QRhsg5pW38/

On Tuesday the Pennsylvania jury declared this man to be a 'Monster'& has been sentence to 25 years.

Ugh.. My post to this case could be sooo...long.
(Because I don't care who people think or say they are.
A criminal is a criminal. And a child is a child).

But it would only end up being an explanation as to why, if I could... I would round up all the guilty ones & the ones who knew & did nothing or covered it up.. & have a firing squad shoot them all.


Simple really

get his Boss in Rome to pay up!

A bullet to the base of the skull,
will cure that pedophilia.

Those poor kids

This is a long standing problem with them. And why when one of my children was born with severe handicaps, and a few help groups offered some relief, I specified adamantly.. NO PRIESTS. EVER.

That's what peddos do.
They work, volunteer or live near kids. To have access to the heard like a predator.. that they are.

Sadly too many people think "oh good guy ", because of it.

Luckily your parental instincts are acute.
