Hundreds more Catholic clerics abused children in Illinois than were
previously reported by church leaders, according to a scathing
700-page report released Tuesday by the Illinois Attorney Generals
office following a roughly four-year investigation.
State investigators revealed the names and details of 451 Catholic
priests and religious brothers who abused at least 1,997 children
across all dioceses in Illinois. Prior to the report, Catholic leaders
in Illinois had only publicly listed 103 substantiated child sex
abusers, according to the Attorney Generals office.
