New York Attorney General Barbara Underwood (D) has subpoenaed all eight Roman Catholic dioceses in the state as part of a probe into the church's handling of sex abuse allegations, The Associated Press reported Thursday. A source told the AP that the subpoenas, which went out Thursday, are requesting documents related to sex abuse accusations, payments to victims or findings from internal church investigations.

Underwood's office is investigating how the Catholic Church reviewed and "potentially covered up allegations of extensive sexual abuse in NY,"

2016’is included in the four. Hopefully this will be a trend for Roman Catholics going forward.

Evangelicals have been one of the most solid and reliable conservative voting blocks dating back to 1980.

And why do you suppose Catholics voted for JFK? Could if had had something to do with the anti-Catholic venom that was deployed against him during the campaign?

Wow, yeah, clearly your personal experience defines reality for everyone else, and western New York is pretty much all there is to the world.

Blacks split 95-5, Jews split 80-20, Hispanics are basically the same, but Catholics are the only people who can be blamed for electing liberals.

Hm. I kinda doubt he has much, if any, evidence against anyone in these dioceses. This is probably just another Waco expedition.
