Persico says he and Shapiro discussed pending grand jury report, which Persico says will contain ‘difficult’ information.
In the latest example that the Catholic Diocese of Erie is preparing for the release of a grand jury report, Erie Catholic Bishop Lawrence Persico met in Erie on Wednesday with Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro, whose office is conducting the grand jury investigation.
The attorney general’s office has yet to release the grand jury report, though the grand jury’s term ended on April 30, suggesting that the release of the report could come soon.
In a statement released Wednesday night, Persico said he met with Shapiro to discuss the report, and Persico said he will accept its findings and will not block its release.
