Philadelphia: More
than 300 Pennsylvania priests were accused of committing sexual assault
and their bishops covering up for them in a wide-ranging grand jury
report that detailed some of the most damning accusations brought
against the Catholic Church.
"There
have been other reports about child sex abuse within the Catholic
Church," the grand jury wrote in a report released today. "But never on
this scale. For many of us, those earlier stories happened someplace
else, someplace away. Now we know the truth: It happened everywhere."

Two
U.S. bishops opened investigations this month following a series of
online allegations reporting sexual misconduct, excessive alcohol abuse
and behavior unbefitting the priesthood among seminarians and by those
overseeing their development.
