400 kids. In one moderate sized city. 400.

It was a lot worse in Alaska. Pedophile priests, but I repeat myself, were sent to Alaska to get them as far away from the parishes where they had molested little boys. It was like putting a kid in a candy store. They raped their way across the state in every little village, where Alaska Native children were much more vulnerable and trusting. The Fairbanks Archdiocese has already been bankrupted. Now the same needs to happen in Anchorage and Juneau. One cannot begin to imagine the damage inflicted on our youth by this filthy scum.
