PA- Abuse victim found dead

For immediate release Thursday, October 17, 2013

Statement by Karen Polesir of Philadelphia SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (267-992-9463, [email protected])

Our hearts ache for this family.

This brave man courageously exposed a child molesting cleric and protected others. He fought hard to get his day in court. Now that day will never come. We are deeply grateful for his bravery and deeply saddened for his friends and family

Now more than ever, it's crucial that every victim, witness and whistleblower come forward and work with law enforcement. Children are safe when predators are behind bars.

    I know that Our Lord, hates suffering and is compassionate, especially to the child that still lived within, as mine does with me. #SurviveInFaith
