SAN DIEGO -- A San Diego woman is reacting angrily to the Vatican's response surrounding the latest revelations of sexual abuse by a Roman Catholic priest.

The woman, who's only being identified as Anne, says she was molested several times by Stephen Kiesle when he was a priest in the 1970's.

Anne says a letter from then Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger slowing down attempts to defrock Kiesle is hurtful. She says it makes it seem like the Vatican is more concerned

with scandal than protecting children.

Kiesle was eventually defrocked in 1987.

Anne has filed a lawsuit against the church
