(ABC 6 News) — A Ramsey County judge ruled Monday that the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis as well as the Diocese of Winona must release the names of priests accused of sexual assault.
This after a law suit where the victim demanded that the names be released for the public’s safety.
Back in August Bill Beardmore stood before us and told us of the sexual abuse he says he suffered at the hands of his own priest more than 50 years ago.
“I felt like I was the person that had done something bad, I was just a little kid, I was an altar boy,” said Beardmore.
Beardmore is just one of the victims that attorney Jeff Anderson has represented that has asked that the names of the priests that have been credibly accused be released.
