Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests
March 5, 2019
Reports are that Bishop David Talley of Alexandria, Louisiana, will be annouced today to be the new bishop of Memphis, Tennessee. What can Memphians expect from Bishop Talley? SNAP of Tennessee (Survivors Network of those Abuse by Priests) has the following observations.
In the wake of the revelation that the first bishop of Memphis, Carroll T. Dozier, was a pedophile listed on the “credibly accused” list of pedophile priests recently released in the Diocese of Richmond, Virginia, SNAP of Tennessee certainly hopes there will be a better track record than has been seen in the past in Memphis.”
Do the prospects of this happening look promising given Talley’s recent stand on release of names in his own diocese in Louisiana? We’re not sure.
We’re encouraged that Bishop David P. Talley has worked as a caseworker for abused and neglected children.
