I had no idea that these large cases were still active. How horrible that the young are victimized, and then have to wait so long for dollar compensation. Money doesn't fix the victim, but it can hurt the Catholic church.

A great fictional account of the Boston Archdiocese and abusive priests, is the movie Spotlight. In the final credits are listed the places priests were shown to be molesters. The list has hundreds of locations.

Spotlight is excellent. If anyone here hasn't seen it, go watch it.

I misspoke. Spotlight is based on the real efforts of The Boston Globe to bring Catholic priests abuses to light. It's not a work of fiction.
