Little Rock, Ark. – The Catholic Diocese of Little Rock is releasing new information in the continuing investigation into allegations of clergy sexual abuse of children. The office is also urging other alleged victims to come forward.
On Friday, Bishop Anthony B. Taylor released a statement to the Catholics in the Diocese of Little Rock following a review by an outside firm, Kinsale Management Consulting, of more than 1,350 files of clergy and religious who served in ministry in the diocese.
The DOLR released these items:
An Updated Clergy Disclosure List,
A Historical Explanation of the Church’s Handling of Allegations of Abuse of Minors Prior to 2002, and
An exit letter from Kinsale Management Consulting (full letter posted below)
The Diocese says Bishop Taylor remains deeply concerned for anyone who has been a victim of sexual abuse, especially anyone who has been abused by a priest, deacon or other representative of the church.
