Attorney General details abuse report findings
These are unprecedented times. Not because there were no victims within the church before today.
Not because there were no cover-ups, bribes, threats, secret marriages and divorces, private stashes of child pornography, golden crosses used to mark children who had already been groomed.
Because today, we stand with these courageous survivors. Today, we don’t “play it safe” as Richard Lavinthal would have us do in his recent op-Ed for PennLive.
Today, the words of the grand jury ring around the world and shatter the darkness with the light of truth. Today, we are proud to be Pennsylvanians led forward in the fight for justice by our citizens, by our communities, by our Attorney General and his office.
Attempting to misrepresent or distract from the true purpose and message of last week’s media release is a tried and true method of further silencing survivors. And we say no.
