ST. PAUL, Minn. – A judge has given the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis and the Diocese of Winona more time to release a second list of priests accused of child sexual abuse.
The new list is made up of priests accused of sexual abuse of minors after 2004. That list was supposed to be released by the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis and the Diocese of Winona on Monday.
But, lawyers for the Archdiocese requested court clarification on the term credibly accused because it was concerned about priests being falsely accused.
Jeff Anderson, who represents a plaintiff known as Doe No. 1, says the churches determination of falsely accused cannot be trusted.
