(In case you got lost, the above answer reveals this logic:
We announce the names when we remove them,
but since we did not remove that one,
we did not announce his name.)
ANDERSON: Isn’t it true that up until the January 31, 2006 lawsuit we filed, the names weren’t made public? ANDERSON: Is it your testimony that the names of offender priests were posted on the Archdiocese website?
CARDINAL: Well, all the names of all priests in the Archdiocese were on the website, and anyone could write and ask for a complete file of the priest’s history and then they would know if there was an allegation.
(ME: Did you catch that? If you took time to read the files of every priest in the Archdiocese you could see which ones have allegations in their files. That is how the Archdiocese made the perpetrator names public.)
AND: What prevented you, as Cardinal Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Chicago, from making those names public until 2006?
CARD: They were public, sir.
AND: I'm talking about a list by the Archdiocese.
CARDINAL: The process wasn’t perfect, reasonable cause to suspect is a very, very low threshold and, therefore, it wasn’t perhaps fair --
(ME: FAIR!??@!@ These priests gave up their right to fair a few felonies back)
p. 290
AND: What does the archdiocese of Chicago do to care for victims of priest sex abuse?
CARD: When an allegation is made, even before we know there’s reasonable cause to suspect, the VAM is encouraged to reach out and offer spiritual help, counseling.
(ME: You think I can give Catholic professionals any credibility or trust when it comes to spiritual counseling? What an affront, an selfish offering that does not consider the victim or what they really need.)
