Devil in Disguise

Jerry Kobs wanted to take Communion before Christmas. It was a cold, windy morning in December of 2007 when he stepped inside St. Patrick’s, the near-South Side church where he grew up and the scene of all his childhood terror. TV stations had been covering the bizarre news of a nun accused of sexually abusing – more than 160 times – two boys back in the 1960s, back when Jerry was a bewildered seventh-grade victim. Kobs couldn’t help worrying that maybe someone would recognize him. There he is, one of those guys molested by the nun, Sister Norma Giannini.
