Six Catholic priests who served in Yuba-Sutter-Colusa churches are accused of sexually abusing victims. The accusations are made in a document released Tuesday by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Sacramento.

Bishop Jaime Soto last year ordered the public release of church records indicating sexual abuse. On Tuesday, those records were made public and show that more than 40 priests serving the Sacramento Diocese abused around 130 victims over the past 70 years. The diocese listed another 22 priests from other dioceses.
