BOSTON (AP) - A Boston lawyer, saying he's frustrated by the Boston Archdiocese's inaction, plans to publish an online list of Roman Catholic priests and others affiliated with the church who have been accused of molesting children.

Mitchell Garabedian, who has represented hundreds of abuse victims, says he plans to announced the names of more than 100 alleged abusers on Wednesday.

He says the list of 117 priests, members of religious orders and other church employees have been named in sexual abuse complaints for which he has obtained settlements or arbitration awards.

He tells The Boston Globe his intent is to provide transparency and protect children.

A spokeswoman for the archdiocese says the church has taken many steps to protect children and is still working on its own list.
