Lawyers for Archbishop Robert Carlson have now appealed to the Missouri Supreme Court to block the release of names of 115 archdiocesan employees accused of abuse. A Feb.24 trial date in the case looms. The publicity around that case has brought “several” new victims forward, SNAP leaders say. Meanwhile, lawyers in Carlson’s home diocese of St. Paul/Minneapolis are asking a judge there to delay the release of predators’ names. And on Wednesday, Chicago’s Cardinal Francis George is set to turn over to victims’ attorneys records on about 30 Windy City clerics as part of civil lawsuit settlements.
