They also caught one clergyman...I'm almost certain it was only one. That clergyman wasn't a Catholic priest...he was a Rabbi.
Spotlight” is a 2015 American biographical drama film directed by Tom McCarthy and written by McCarthy and Josh Singer. It tells the story of The Boston Globe’s “Spotlight” team, the oldest continuously operating newspaper investigative journalist unit in the United States, and their investigation into cases of widespread and systemic child sex abuse in the Boston area by numerous Catholic priests.0 The film stars Mark Ruffalo, Michael Keaton, Rachel McAdams, and Liev Schreiber.1 In 2001, editor Marty Baron of The Boston Globe assigns a team of journalists to investigate allegations against John Geoghan, an unfrocked priest accused of molesting more than 80 boys.2 The investigation led to the revelation of a massive scandal of child molestation and cover-up within the local Catholic Archdiocese, shaking the entire Catholic Church to its core.
Bah! Even before they “found out,” everybody more or less knew what was going on.
“Bloody Boston,” about organized crime in the city, is worth watching, though.
It sure has been peaceful today ;>)
