Victims Urge Church Officials to Restore Memorial

Why must already-wounded and betrayed abuse survivors be forced to pay for a memorial at a Catholic church? Why can’t New Jersey church officials pony up this time?

We are deeply proud of the brave survivors who were assaulted by Paterson diocese predator priests. At least a dozen were victimized by one Mendham priest: Fr. James Hanley. It took great strength for them to come forward, seek justice, expose wrongdoers and create this moving memorial. We are sad that it’s been damaged again.

The memorial is a small but important reminder about the continuing clergy sex abuse and cover up crisis in the church. For the healing of adults and the safety of kids, and especially for the loved ones of Jim Kelly, we hope it’s restored fully and quickly.
