	Catholic Sex-Abuse Crisis: a Victim's Parents to Speak Sunday in Ormond Beach Orlando Sentinel April 23, 2010 http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/features-the-religion-world/2010/04/23/catholic-sex-abuse-crisis-victims-parents-to-speak-sunday-in-ormond-beach/ The parents of a young man who said he was abused by a Catholic priest will tell their story this Sunday at 2 p.m. at the Ormond Beach Public Library. Toni and Joe McMorrow will tell how they grew frustrated with what they describe as the church's reluctance to act in the case of the priest who molested their son, Brandon Rains, who is now in his early 20s, in 2001 and 2002 when the family lived in Maryland. The Rev. Aaron Cotes was convicted and sentenced in 2009 in Maryland to 10 years of probation on charges of abusing Rains. He is restricted from having unsupervised contact with minors. The McMorrows now live in the Space Coast area and are leaders of the Florida affiliate of the Survivors' Network of Those Abused By Priests. Sunday's event is sponsored by Volusia chapter of Voice of the Faithful, an organization founded in 2002 in response to widespread reports of Catholic priests abusing minors.
