Hold child abusers outside Catholicism accountable, too

I was born and raised Catholic and, yes, I still practice my faith. Those clergy who committed abuse deserve to be recognized and punished, and the victims most certainly deserve recompense (“Maryland Catholic Church abuse database: Search the list,” Dec. 15).

I am curious when The Baltimore Sun will publish an article that deals with abuse by the clergy in other religious denominations. I cannot imagine these incidents were isolated to Catholic clergy alone, even though your paper would make it seem so.
