Finally, a decade after a jury first found him guilty of molesting kids, the Vatican has defrocked a serial predator priest, Fr. Thomas Teczar, who assaulted children in Texas and Massachusetts.

This long-overdue move does little to safeguard kids now, because Teczar is behind bars. Back when decisive action by Catholic officials might have made a difference, nothing was done.

We hope that every single person who saw, suspected or suffered Teczar's crimes will come foward, get help, call police, expose his enablers and start to heal.

(SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, is the world’s oldest and largest support group for clergy abuse victims. We’ve been around for 23 years and have more than 10,000 members. Despite the word “priest” in our title, we have members who were molested by religious figures of all denominations, including nuns, rabbis, bishops, and Protestant ministers.
