(NECN) – New developments have occurred in the on-going story of fallout from sexual abuse of children in the Catholic Church.
In Philadelphia, the focus is on a trial of an accused priest and his supervisor, a monsignor. If the verdict comes back as guilty, it will mark the first time that the priest abuse convictions have reached the Catholic Church hierarchy.
In Boston, the top Jesuit official in the U.S. is under a shadow after resigning from the board of Boston College and several other schools because of his failure to supervise a priest who was abusing children.
Anne Barrett Doyle of BishopAccountability.org joins Broadside to weigh in on these latest developments.
