Report reveals diocese’s history of covering up priestly sex abuse
The diocese of Buffalo is under intense criticism for covering up alleged clerical sex abuse.
On June 1, survivors of priestly sex abuse called on Bp. Richard Malone and Auxiliary Bishop Edward Grosz to resign from their positions in the Church. They also called for a criminal investigation into the diocese.
In calling for the bishops’ resignations, the victims referred to investigative videos produced last month by local 7 Eyewitness News. The video reports documented the diocese’s decades-long history of covering up pedophile priests.
