Betrayal by Boston Globe
With this expose, The "Boston Globe" aims to present the single most comprehensive account of the cover-ups, hush money and emotional manipulation used by the Catholic Church to keep its long history of sexual abuse secret. The case of Father John Geoghan, who has been sentenced to 10 years in prison and whose 130 victims have been awarded $30 million, has dominated news headlines. The newspaper maintains that the 2000 related civil suits pending against the Church are just the tip of the iceberg. With the same incisive reportage that first broke the scandal open, The "Boston Globe"'s team of investigative reporters also provides important analyses of what's at stake and what this "crisis of faith" means for Catholics everywhere.
The Boston Globe is one of the largest daily newspapers in America and in November 2001 they petitioned the Massachusetts Superior Court and forced the Boston Archdiocese to release secret documents - and won.
