Dec 15, 2005, 04:27 PM EST Bishop Gives Testimony on Bill
Reported by Tanisha Mallett
The leader of Columbus' Catholic Diocese testified against a proposal that could bring more abuse cases against the church.
The child protection bill would include a one-year "look back" period which allows victims of decades old abuse cases to sue.
The bishop says this chance to look back would not protect children in the future.
Bishop Frederick Campbell testified the church supports a child protection bill, just not the one- year "look back" window that comes with it.
