Leaders with a group advocating for victims of alleged abuse by clergy said they’re frustrated over what they claim is a lack of action to investigate local cases.
Judy Jones, a representative of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, or SNAP, was in town Tuesday, claiming reports of abuse against a number of former Warren JFK High School students has in turn prompted others to come forward and make their own claims against employees of the Diocese of Youngstown.
Jones claims there are two other, unrelated abuse allegations against Diocese employees. She wouldn’t be any more specific, other than to say the alleged incidents happened years ago.
She also said neither of the alleged victims has told anyone in law enforcement.
