The Archdiocese of Seattle has released the names of dozens of its clergy members accused of sexual abuse. Not only has it offered an exhaustive list of clergy members, it has offered an apology in a letter to "all who have been impacted by the sinful actions of sexual abuse of minors by clergy or religious brothers or sister."
"I express my deepest apologies for the actions of those who were in positions of trust and who violated that sacred trust by abusing the vulnerable in their care," said. Rev. J. Peter Sartain, Archbishop of Seattle. "Our work in this area will not be complete until all those who have been harmed have received assistance in healing, and until the evil of child sexual abuse has been eradicated from society."
