The recent Catholic priest abuse scandal in Europe
brought attention to the worldwide church and frustration to at least
one Utah priest. He says bishops in America created a program to protect
children eight years ago.
ust before and during Easter week, another Catholic priest scandal broke, this time in Europe. "Frankly, when those reports came in, I was shocked that they hadn't
handled the situation over there, knowing what had happened here," says
Father Robert Moriarty, pastor at the St. Francis Xavior Catholic
Parish.
