Statement by Barbara Dorris of St. Louis, Outreach Director of SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (314 503 0003, SNAPdorris@gmail.com)

We're glad a high ranking Twin Cities Catholic official will be deposed again and hope his archbishop will also insist that he be questioned by police too.

Fr. Kevin McDonough very likely knows more about clergy sex crimes and cover ups than any church employee in Minnesota. For years he was the "go to guy" in pedophile priest cases in the Twin Cities area. We believe that dozens of kids were assaulted because Fr. McDonough misled parishioners and protected predators. And we believe that Fr. McDonough should be defrocked.

(SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, is the world’s oldest and largest support group for clergy abuse victims. We’ve been around for 25 years and have more than 20,000 members. Despite the word “priest” in our title, we have members who were molested by religious figures of all denominations, including nuns, rabbis, bishops, and Protestant ministers. Our website is SNAPnetwork.org)
