MILWAUKEE — The bankruptcy case of the Milwaukee Archdiocese heads back to a federal courtroom Wednesday as an advocacy group has asked the state’s attorney general to review abuse claims.
A group of abuse survivors is asking for J.B. Van Hollen to conduct his own investigation into the claims of abuse filed in the bankruptcy proceedings.
Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests, or SNAP, went to the attorney general’s office Tuesday and asked Van Hollen to have his office review the thousands of pages of claims.
The Archdiocese filed for bankruptcy protection in January 2011 after it felt its legal feeds could exceed its assets.
