Survivors Network of
those Abused by Priests
SNAP Press
Statement
On Remarks
by Pope Regarding Clergy Abuse Problem
For immediate release:
Saturday, October 28, 2006
Statement by Peter Isely, board chairman of
SNAP, cell 414-429-7259
Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests
The Pope is merely acknowledging what millions of Catholics have known
for years: clergy sex abuse leaves devastating scars. Actions speak louder
than words. Acknowledging wounds and condemning abuse is meaningless until
bishops who are responsible for horrific child sex crimes are disciplined
or ousted. Until then nothing will change.
