Archbishop Michael Jude Byrnes said the church is looking forward to a full and complete resolution of all clergy sexual abuse cases, as he acknowledged the nine latest accusers on Thursday.
“The abuse of children is one of the most horrible of crimes, precisely because it is perpetrated upon the most vulnerable and innocent among us by people of power and so-called trust. Let no one diminish victims of abuse, for they have already suffered immensely,” Byrnes said in a statement that also offers prayers, hope and healing for the latest victims, A.Q., B.C., T.M., F.A.M., M.M., R.M.S., R.P., J.A. and S.N.J.C.
The Archdiocese of Agana is now facing 91 childhood sexual abuse cases in local and federal court.
