Arizona Clergy Abuse Attorney
Catholic Priest Sexual Abuse in Arizona
Among the Arizona Roman Catholic Dioceses, there have been many accusations of sexual abuse brought forward by the abuse survivors and their families. Unfortunately, many of the children and adolescents who suffered abuse at the hands of clergymen were unable or unwilling to report the inflicted abuse.
There are allegations that bishops and high-ranking church members were aware of sexual abuse in Arizona. In fact, Bishop Thomas O'Brien of the Phoenix diocese has been criminally investigated for sheltering priests accused of sexual abuse in his sphere of control. This is an extremely unjust and illegal activity that could have resulted in countless other victims suffering at the hands of abusers.
