    Default L.A. church leaders sought to hide sex abuse cases from authorities

    Fifteen years before the clergy sex abuse scandal came to light, Archbishop Roger M. Mahony and a top advisor plotted to conceal child molestation by priests from law enforcement, including keeping them out of California to avoid prosecution, according to internal Catholic church records released Monday.

    I was raised Catholic, 12 years of school, saw the Church for what it is. Worked for the parish.
    The catholic church isn't anything but another multinational money grubbing corporation, I seriously consider members fools.

    Disturbing as it is, I can't say I'm surprise at how they made certain to protect the preist and quiet the victim.


    From Steams article:
    "In the confidential letters, filed this month as evidence in a civil court case, Curry proposed strategies to prevent police from investigating three priests who had admitted to church officials that they abused young boys. Curry suggested to Mahony that they prevent them from seeing therapists who might alert authorities and that they give the priests out-of-state assignments to avoid criminal investigators"

    And people keep putting their hard earned money into the coffers every Sunday.

    Irony is so lost on Muslim apologists.
