HOLLIDAYSBURG — The founder of a New Jersey nonprofit formed to help child sex abuse victims stood outside the headquarters of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Altoona-Johnstown on Wednesday calling for an end to delays in the Brother Stephen Baker sex abuse case, which has been tied up in litigation.
“Let’s settle this case morally, justly and quickly,” Road to Recovery Founder Robert Hoatson said.
Attorneys for the local diocese and other agencies, and those representing Baker’s alleged victims, have been negotiating off and on for more than a year.
