600 Kids Were Sexually Abused , by Baltimore’s Catholic Church Over 6 Decades.
NBC News reports that on April 5, Attorney General
Anthony Brown accused Catholic Church officials in the
state of attempting to cover up years of sexual abuse.
Brown contends that a minimum of
600 children were victims, and some were
"preyed upon by multiple abusers over decades.".
600 children are known to have been abused by the 156 people included in this Report, but the number is likely far higher, Anthony Brown, Maryland Attorney General, via statement.
Time and again, members of the Church’s hierarchy resolutely refused to acknowledge allegations of child sexual abuse for as long as possible, Anthony Brown, Maryland Attorney General, via statement.
When denial became impossible, Church leadership would remove abusers from the parish or school, sometimes with promises that they would have no further contact with children.

Church documents reveal with disturbing clarity that the Archdiocese was more concerned with avoiding scandal and negative publicity than it was with protecting children, Anthony Brown, Maryland Attorney General, via statement.
Baltimore Archbishop William E.
Lori referred to the report as a "sad and painful reminder of the tremendous harm caused to innocent children and young people by some ministers of the Church.".
The detailed accounts of abuse are shocking and soul searing.
It is difficult for most to imagine that such evil acts could have actually occurred.
, William E.
Lori, Baltimore Archbishop, via statement.
For victim-survivors everywhere, they know the hard truth:
These evil acts did occur, William E.
