A report from the Maryland Attorney General's Office reveals that more than 600 children were abused by clergy belonging to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Baltimore over a period stretching from the 1940s into the early 21st century, the Christian Post website reports today (April 7, 2023).
The report shows that the Archdiocese of Baltimore had 156 abusers in its ranks, which included priests, deacons, seminarians and other employees of the Church body.
The report speculated that "the number is likely far higher ," noting that sexual assault and rape are often underreported.
