Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., said the Senate should examine laws regarding the statute of limitations in the wake of a major report that found the Catholic Church covered up decades of abuse in Pennsylvania.

A grand jury report found that more than 300 priests in Pennsylvania abused more than 1,000 children for the past 70 years.

“We believe that the real number — of children whose records were lost, or who were afraid ever to come forward — is in the thousands,” the grand jury report said.
