Catholic leaders in Arkansas said Monday that 12 priests who served in the state have been accused of sexually abusing a minor.

The Diocese of Little Rock, which leads Catholics throughout Arkansas, released a preliminary list after an internal investigation. The list is subject to change pending the results of an independent review that is tentatively scheduled to be shared with the public in December, Bishop Anthony Taylor said in a statement.
