Syracuse Diocese agrees to tell DAs about child-molesting accusations against priests

The Catholic Diocese of Syracuse has signed an agreement with the seven top prosecutors in Central New York to immediately report suspected child-molesting by priests.
Bishop Robert Cunningham signed a "memorandum of understanding," along with the seven district attorneys in the diocese, that sets out how the diocese will respond to allegations against priests or other religious workers. No one involved in the agreement is saying what prompted it.
