CHICAGO (IL)
The New Age (South Africa)

Victims of sexual abuse by priests in the Chicago area are vowing to keep pushing for information on how the Chicago Archdiocese handled allegations.

They’re encouraging other victims to come forward, and asking that Cardinal Francis George fire those involved in shielding priests.

Documents involving 30 priests were posted online Tuesday by victims’ attorneys. The documents showed how top officials tried to contain the scandal, including by moving accused priests around while hiding histories.

Attorneys say they’ll push for files on another 35 priests.
