Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests

Statement by Barbara Dorris of St. Louis, Outreach Director of SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests ( 314 503 0003, SNAPdorris@gmail.com )
At the risk of seeming simplistic, children are safer when predators are imprisoned. So we are grateful that a Twin Cities pastor has been sentenced to 24 years behind bars for raping two girls.
It’s pathetic, and hurtful, to hear the manipulative claims Jacoby Kindred Sr. made to exploit the innocence of these girls. And it’s sad to see no remorse from him.
We suspect Kindred assaulted other children. Let’s hope each one of them feels validated and safer today. And let’s hope each one of them steps forward and starts healing.
