This a report about an historical and persistent tragedy. Continued new cases, and especially where the statute of limitations has been opened. It unfairly equates unsubstantiated accusations (perp dead or SOL in place) with untrue accusations, which clinicians know are rare. Meanwhile bishops mostly fail to name known perps, thus consigning victims to deal with their trauma alone. Meanwhile bishops pay lobbyists and lawyers to fight for institutional protections. Meanwhile bishops are covering for the pernicious problem of the secret lifestyles of their priests, gay and straight. You're only as sick as your secrets..and this church is still sick and dying.
