	The Head of the Jesuit Religious Order Apologizes for Abuse Associated Press October 26, 2007 http://www.wandtv.com/Global/story.asp?S=7268971 CHICAGO — The head of the Jesuits is expressing sorrow that he hadn't done enough to prevent a member of the religious order from abusing members of the Roman Catholic church. The Reverend Edward Schmidt of the Chicago province of the Society of Jesus expressed his sorrow yesterday (Thursday), two days after more abuse allegations surfaced against a Chicago-area Jesuit priest. However, Schmidt declined to say whether steps are being taken to remove the convicted abuser from the priesthood. Meanwhile, a former prosecutor now advising the Jesuits said a review of the order's records turned up additional abuse allegations against the Reverend Donald McGuire. Patrick Collins said the information has been disclosed to multiple law-enforcement agencies.
