A 17 page report summarizing the “Church in Crisis” in Louisville, documenting 29 accused priests, deacons, and church workers. They also provide a statistical summary and background information on their investigative report.

Note – In Archbishop Kelly’s Letter of February 2, 1993, introducing new Sexual Abuse Policies he stated …”we are committed to action – to prevent the sexual abuse of children before it occurs; to respond quickly and decisively … and afterwords, to provide comfort and assistance in the healing process for victims and their families…”

The AOL’s prevention, quick response, providing comfort and assistance in the healing process for victims and their families seems to be missing in the reports.
