ST. PAUL, Minn. – The Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis announced Thursday they have hired a consulting firm to review clergy files in their ongoing efforts to address issues of sexual misconduct within the church.
Kinsale Management Consulting will begin reviewing all clergy files in early December, beginning with a review of clergy in active ministry. Kinsale will conduct an initial assessment before determining how long the review will take.
Kinsale Management Consulting was founded by Dr. Kathleen McChesney, a former top FBI official. She was also head of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Office for Child and Youth Protection, where she oversaw a program to ensure dioceses complied with policies to prevent and report sexual abuse.
