The Memphis Catholic Diocese will have a new Bishop next month.

Days after Bishop David Talley was named for the position, a list came out of the Richmond, Virginia Diocese of priests with credible sexual abuse allegations against them.

Memphis Diocese founder Bishop Carol Dozier was on that list.

David Brown is a member of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests or SNAP.

Outside the Cathedral of Immaculate Conception in Midtown, where Dozier’s body rests, Brown called for Talley to tackle allegations of abuse by Dozier head on.
