McGonigle, a lawyer from Connecticut, held a picture of herself at age 6, her sharply cut bangs above a child’s innocent eyes and smile. McGonigle said she was 6 when she was abused by a priest named Brendan Smyth, who left a trail of abuse in Britain and Ireland before he came to work in East Greenwich, R.I."
And yet our own government in Ireland connived with the church hierarchy to stop Irish clerical abusers being named in the Ryan report.. Instead of full criminal investigations and prosecutions , the state gave these well-connected clerics the same anonymnity normally afforded to victims of abuse . This has allowed the Christian Brothers cult the opportunty to rebrand itself as the Edmund Rice International and to extend its activities into the third world as an advocate of children's rights.
There is going to be a protest at the GPO next Sunday with an information stall manned by clerical abuse survivors and their supporters from 12-4 p.m. All welcome
i am pleased that the us goverment named child abusers brain cowen follow suit aslo corrrection the protest and stand will be at the gpo saturday not sunday as above all are welcome
