Are you saying that the public school kids who are abused or the public school teachers who abuse them get no attention? And if the public school teachers are pedophiles, would you agree that any Public School District does NOT try to hide that fact and cover it up, like the AOP has done? Also, all of those that get abused by the clergy and come forward certainly get trashed by so many, even in death. Why is that? We should be applauding their courage for coming forward and putting their reputations on the line. Isn't that what we do for any other victim or witness to any other crime? And just to clarify, I am not saying that all of the clergy that are accused are guilty, just as all victims that accuse them are making things up...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8876661997317409023.post-46200415714647824792013-12-06T14:35:23.788-05:002013-12-06T14:35:23.788-05:00Same people who send cards to to the kids that wer...Same people who send cards to to the kids that were abused by public school teachers who abuse kids at a rate much higher then priest and get no attention at all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8876661997317409023.post-78939448999640343082013-12-06T09:27:26.283-05:002013-12-06T09:27:26.283-05:00And who, exactly, is going to send cards to all of...And who, exactly, is going to send cards to all of those innocent children who were/are sexually abused by the clergy?

Especially because these priests -who may have been falsely accused by these most recent lying drug addicts- do NOT have a clean past! And that is according to the Archdiocese itself! I really have a hard time having sympathy for men who have been accused for years, by a multitude of victims. You all seem to have such vitriol for Danny Gallagher. Yet the facts that are NOT disputed by Fr. Brennan himself that he spent evenings getting loaded with the minor and his mother spending a night in the SAME bed with a minor, letting him watch porn on his computer, etc., none of this is criminal, however it had to have really screwed up the kid! I don't think that excuses him to lie under oath, nor should the priest be prosecuted for something he did not do, but c'mon, Brennan is a scumbag. Anonymous you have also put Gallagher and Mcilmail in the same category as "in it for the money." Seems you have already made up your mind about a case that never even made it to trial because the witness is now deceased. Your generalizations of ALL accusers being liars is just as unjustified as the generalizations of ALL priests being pedophiles.

Opportunities for abuse have been squelched. Boundary issues crystal clear clarified and children protected tightly like a shield. Too many civiilians, including parental, teaching and volunteer witnesses around for a priest to abuse a kid. Plus, Archdiocese very willing to turn over abuse creator to the police at a drop of the hat.<br /><br />DA prosecutes not only church abuse cases but homicide and sexual assault cases as well. They scope each case looking for strong and credible evidence in order to make an arrest and they are always looking for those who have evaded arrest. Whenever possible, evidence presented to grand jury to indict and trials are held. Guilty ones sentenced to prison terms. Innocent ones freed.
