Atonement requires revealing the truth - JSOnline

 

In a long-awaited court motion to be heard on Thursday in federal bankruptcy court in Milwaukee, 570 victims/survivors of childhood rape and sexual assault by Catholic clergy and other church personnel will petition Judge Susan V. Kelley to release the sealed testimony of the two former Milwaukee bishops most responsible for decades of concealing and transferring known offender priests, Archbishop Rembert Weakland and Bishop Richard Sklba.

Last week, Listecki claimed his principle objection to the release is that, although he couldn't explain how, it would result in the identification of victims' names and identities.

Nothing could be further from the truth. On this point, all parties involved in the bankruptcy agree: Not a single victim's name or identity will ever be made public, unless the survivor chooses to do so.
