	SNAP Member Continue to Protest outside Church Capital News 9 [Albany NY] September 4, 2005 Advocates for victims of clergy sex abuse continued to protest Sunday, days after an Albany priest was cleared of sexual abuse charges. On Friday, Father Daniel Maher of Holy Cross Roman Catholic Church was cleared of charges that he molested at least one boy back in the 1970s. But members of SNAP -- Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests -- have been calling for Maher's removal for several weeks now. An internal investigation conducted by the diocese found no evidence of any abuse. But SNAP members are questioning the investigation. Mark Lyman of SNAP said, "We would like to see the victim have his day in court with a real investigation, for all the facts to come out and be heard in a court of the people and by the people, and not of the bishop and by the diocese." The diocese said it stands by its findings. Police were called to the protest to make sure things didn't get out of hand.
