Catholic bishops have brought the hammer of state law enforcement upon themselves --- Stephanie will soon learn that the cover up is WORSE than the crime, Mr. Varsity Coach!
Catholic leaders have left state officials with no choice but to investigate the Church in America.
This could be a very good thing. It could also go south very quickly.
The New York State Attorney General’s office announced on Sept. 6 that it had subpoenaed the state’s eight Catholic dioceses as part of a broader civil investigation into whether church leaders covered up allegations of clergy sexual abuse. On the very same day that New York announced its investigation, New Jersey's attorney general announced a criminal investigation into allegations of cover-ups in the Garden State's Catholic dioceses. Earlier, law enforcement officials in Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, and New Mexico opened investigations into possible abuse and cover-up by Church leaders in their respective states.
