A law firm that specializes in clergy sexual abuse will disclose on Wednesday the names of 27 New York clergy members accused of sexually abusing minors, the firm, Jeff Anderson & Associates, said Tuesday.
Nineteen of those clergy members are from the Diocese of Syracuse; eight are from the Diocese of Ogdensburg. The identities and other information on the clergy members will be released at a 10 a.m. news conference in Syracuse, where the firm will also discuss the Diocese’s recently unveiled sexual abuse compensation program, and will urge the Church to release the names of priests who have been accused of sexual abuse of minors.
