Guam - The Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests (SNAP) have called on the Guam Catholic Church to embrace the letter and spirit of two new laws to keep kids safe from child predators.

The organization have urged Archbishop Anthony Apuron to make public the names of all credibly accused priests who work or have worked on Guam, turn over secret documents that outline abuse allegations and any actions taken by church officials and make public all information about abuse on Guam disclosed to officials in other dioceses.

The two recently passed bills remove the statute of limitations for victims of sexual abuse and provides additional time for others to come forward and seek justice.
