Another good site (names all the names of the priests and the bishops who defended them):

Thank you, I hadn’t seen this site.
“Crosby, Donald J. - Accused in 1970s of abusing teenage girls at a Utica Catholic School. Reported to Msgr. H. Charles Sewall (now known abuser) but Sewall apparently did not report. Nothing found in Crosby’s files. Voluntarily left priesthood in 1975 and laicized in 1980. Working as school guidance counselor in 2003 but resigned shortly after school learned from the DA’s office about old allegations. One woman said her mother reported the abuse to the Diocese in the 1990s but no record found. Died 1/04.”
Un-freaking-believable.
Also knew this guy:
“Neary, Thomas E.-Man claimed Neary raped him at least 100 times over two years. Original accusation against Neary was made at a State Senate Hearing in Albany in 5/03. Diocese would not discuss case but said they offered to pay the man’s counseling bills. As of 1/04 diocese had paid $3000 in counseling bills. Neary died 9/01 at age 83. He had retired in 1995. 2008 articles reference numerous victims who have not made public allegations.”
I see the corruption went all the way to the top in our diocese. No wonder nothing was ever done.
