PHOENIX —
The names of more than 100 clerics accused of abuse in the Diocese of Phoenix
were released Wednesday.
A group
of lawyers, victims, and advocates held a joint press conference in downtown
Phoenix to share the report in hopes of ‘bringing out of the dark’ information
that they claim has not been thoroughly provided by the Catholic diocese.
At the
press conference, they released a report containing 109 identities, histories,
photos and information of those accused of child sexual abuse.
“We
look at each of these names, 100 names and we could see 10, 20, 100 children
that are abused by each one of those that means that so many people are being
harmed and as long as this information is buried, then our communities are not
safe,” said Tim Lennon, an abuse
survivor.
“We
also know that there are so many more clerical offenders out there that have
been accused and or abused that are yet to be revealed so this part of a
process in which there can now be accountability and transparency and this is
just our best efforts to engage in more transparency than what the catholic
diocese has chosen to do,” said
Jeff Anderson, the lead lawyer in the efforts to hold the diocese accountable.

According
to those who compiled the report, more than half of those named have passed
away and another 25 priests' whereabouts are unknown.
In a
statement, church leaders in Phoenix say the names the group released had
previously been disclosed by the diocese or other branches within the Catholic
church.
"We
are reviewing the report released today at the press conference with survivors
of sexual abuse. The report appears to contain names currently published on our
website, as well as those previously published by other dioceses and religious
orders," the statement said. "Today’s report does not identify any clergy accused of
sexual abuse who are in active ministry in the Diocese of Phoenix."
The
Phoenix diocese has publicly released a list of 43 names of clergy who have
been "credibly accused" of abuse since the diocese was formed in 1969
and removes them from their clerical duties. Priests accused before that year
are disclosed by the Tucson and Gallup, New Mexico, dioceses, which oversaw
parts of the region before the new diocese was created.
The
diocese also laid out the actions it has taken to stop abuse, including listing
those credibly accused of abuse on its website , removing them from their
ministry, training 30,000 priests, employees and volunteers a year on spotting
and reporting sex abuse, and setting up an outside review board to review
accusations against priests.
Late last
year, the organization which oversees the placement of clergy at Jesuit
institutions in 12 states, including Arizona, released
its list of priests credibly accused of sexual misconduct.
Legislation
was passed in Arizona earlier this year to
extend the age limit for victims to bring forward claims of sexual abuse. The
new law, signed in May, gives victims until their 30th birthday to sue, and
victims who have missed the cutoff have a one-time window until 2020 to file.
