ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — A former church employee, who went public with claims that archdiocese leaders in St. Paul mishandled allegations of clergy sexual misconduct, said Tuesday that she still feels like she didn’t do enough.

Jennifer Haselberger said that as early as 2008, she had been warning church leaders about troubled priests in the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis. However, she said, they didn’t listen. In one case, a priest that she warned church officials about later molested two young boys.

Haselberger said the ordeal still weighs heavily on her. She ultimately resigned from her post with the church.
