Kansas has now joined Missouri in saying the state Attorney General’s Office will not launch grand jury investigations into abuse within the Catholic Church. It was a grand jury report that revealed more than 300 priests in Pennsylvania abused more than 1,000 children.
The call to do so came from four victims of abuse from Kansas and Missouri along with their Kansas City attorney, Rebecca Randles.
“I’m now 62 years old and I still live with the pain of what happened to me when I was in grade school,” Tim Viviano said, getting emotional, at a news conference Monday recounting what happened to him years ago.
