Pervasive, pernicious, and persistent -- that’s how Attorney General Anthony Brown describes the child sexual abuse uncovered by his office’s investigation into the Archdiocese of Baltimore.

We ask Brown about efforts by Catholic leaders to conceal and protect abusers, and with David Lorenz, Maryland leader of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, about his reaction to the report, and what is the path ahead.

People who want to come forward with stories of abuse can contact the Maryland Attorney General’s office at (410) 576-6312 or e-mail report@oag.state.md.us.

For survivors of sexual abuse, you can get connected to a local rape crisis center by calling 211. The National Sexual Assault Hotline is (1-800) 656-4673.
