Abuse survivor whose story was told in 'Spotlight', advocates for reform to PA's sex crime laws

Phil Saviano earned vindication in 2001 when a tough investigating team at the Boston Globe began to look into his claims that priests in that diocese had been molesting children for decades.
Saviano's story, which was depicted in the Academy Award-winning film "Spotlight," has been widely recognized and on Wednesday, the 63-year-old activist recounted that story as part of a panel discussion at the state Capitol on the need to reform the state's sex crime laws.
