[Dispositions, 2002-Present]

The Rochester Catholic Diocese released a list Wednesday of all clerics removed from ministry since 2002.

Posted to the Diocese website, the Diocese says the list is in keeping with a commitment to transparency.

This follows the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People and Essential Norms established in 2002 by the U-S Catholic Conference of Bishops.

The list breaks down the 23 priests by cases concluded by clerics dismissed from their ministry, those who requested to be separated from the clerical state, and cases still not resolved.
