Will court allow Church to redact abuse files? Decision slated for Monday, Dec. 17

Priest Abuse Files May Be Released without Church Officials’ Names
At a judge’s direction, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles redacted the identities of members of the church hierarchy. But another judge has the final say.

In its landmark $660-million settlement with victims of sexual abuse five years ago, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles agreed to make public the confidential personnel records of all priests accused of molesting children … But the documents have been scrubbed of what many regard as the most important information: the identities of the members of the church hierarchy who reshuffled abusers.” By Harriet Ryan and Victoria Kim, Los Angeles Times, Dec. 7, 2012

    So what else is new? I’m not surprised at what I read about the hierarchy…I have to remember not to paint all of the bishops with the same brush. I’d like to think that there are a few of them who are men of honor…too optimistic?
