I have represented 153 clergy sexual abuse victims of the late John J. Geoghan, who was convicted of child molestation in Massachusetts before he was murdered in prison.

Today, many clergy sexual abuse victims of Geoghan feel as though they have not been forgotten even though the ruling of the court (“Aaron Hernandez’s murder conviction reinstated,” March 13) does not apply retroactively to his conviction.
