Catholic Church hiding criminals
I was so angered by the story “Catholic responses vary on abuse crisis” [NWFriday, April 9].
The problem is the Catholic Church hides its criminals and does not put them in the proper system if members break the law.
I cannot tell you all that a child predator would be up against in the legal system, but it would not include praying for him to stop. I want the Catholics around the world to wake up and put these people in jail —not some beautiful, recreational property were they are free to continue their sexual deviance.
I do not appreciate the church not standing up for what is right. Any person —I do not care what his profession is — who molests 200 children should not be walking around. period. Shame on Catholics for not seeing that.
