Investigating child sexual abuse in the Catholic church
Article Abstract:
Oral history techniques were used to investigate reactions of residents of the predominantly Catholic town of Lafayette, LA, to the sexual abuse of 11 altar boys by Father Gilbert Gauthe. Parents of the abused boys, their lawyers,priests, nuns, lawyers and the police were among those interviewed. Any investigation involving the Roman Catholic Church should start with the assumption that the church will coverup wrongdoings committed by its clergy.
