[Man] I am here because... I recognize...
2
00:01:02,758 --> 00:01:07,110
in my life there has been a major imbalance,
3
00:01:07,154 --> 00:01:11,114
mainly caused by what I have done
4
00:01:11,158 --> 00:01:13,812
in a criminal way.
5
00:01:13,856 --> 00:01:16,380
I want to promise myself
6
00:01:16,424 --> 00:01:19,166
that this is going to be the most honest
7
00:01:19,209 --> 00:01:21,994
confession of my life,
8
00:01:22,038 --> 00:01:25,389
and in doing that,
9
00:01:25,433 --> 00:01:29,480
I need to make the long journey backwards
10
00:01:29,524 --> 00:01:31,482
to understand what I did,
11
00:01:31,526 --> 00:01:35,138
to acknowledge that,
12
00:01:35,182 --> 00:01:38,359
in some way to make reparation for it,
13
00:01:38,402 --> 00:01:41,623
and to let those whom I have offended
14
00:01:41,666 --> 00:01:45,583
know that, if possible.
15
00:01:45,627 --> 00:01:47,498
Basically what I want to say to them is, you know,
16
00:01:47,542 --> 00:01:49,021
it should not have happened.
17
00:01:49,065 --> 00:01:52,112
It should not have happened.
18
00:02:14,351 --> 00:02:17,093
When I saw him
the first time,
19
00:02:17,137 --> 00:02:20,531
oh, I think it was
love at first sight.
20
00:02:20,575 --> 00:02:22,881
I agree.
I really do.
21
00:02:22,925 --> 00:02:25,188
It was easy
to talk to her.
22
00:02:25,232 --> 00:02:28,148
It must be. We've been
together 41 years now.
23
00:02:30,802 --> 00:02:33,718
[Maria Jyono]
But he wasn't really
practicing Buddhism.
24
00:02:33,762 --> 00:02:35,851
He used to go
with me to church.
25
00:02:35,894 --> 00:02:38,114
[Bob Jyono] Yeah. Before I even met you,
26
00:02:38,158 --> 00:02:40,595
I think I used to go to the chapel,
27
00:02:40,638 --> 00:02:43,250
just for peace and quiet, you know, so--
28
00:02:43,293 --> 00:02:45,469
but then I still had to go to Ireland
29
00:02:45,513 --> 00:02:47,993
and talk to Maria's dad and ask for her hand.
30
00:02:48,037 --> 00:02:49,691
By then
you were baptized. Yeah.
31
00:02:49,734 --> 00:02:52,346
I think that
was a big concern
for my family.
32
00:02:52,389 --> 00:02:57,307
We got married
December 26, 1964.
33
00:02:57,351 --> 00:03:00,484
I told Maria, I said, "Would you like to go to the States?"
34
00:03:00,528 --> 00:03:01,746
It was a big step,
35
00:03:01,790 --> 00:03:03,531
but, you know,
I was willing
36
00:03:03,574 --> 00:03:05,402
to go anywhere
Bob was going.
37
00:03:05,446 --> 00:03:06,447
Yeah.
38
00:03:06,490 --> 00:03:10,277
Ann was born
May 9, 1966.
39
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,279
Yeah, a bundle of joy, really.
40
00:03:12,322 --> 00:03:13,715
She really was. Yeah.
41
00:03:13,758 --> 00:03:15,630
'Cause Bob was working
12 hours a day.
42
00:03:15,673 --> 00:03:17,893
We'd get dressed up,
and we'd go outside
43
00:03:17,936 --> 00:03:20,112
and wait for Bob
when he was coming home.
44
00:03:20,156 --> 00:03:21,418
Oh, she'd say, "Hi, Daddy,"
45
00:03:21,462 --> 00:03:23,638
and give me a hug and kiss, you know.
46
00:03:23,681 --> 00:03:25,553
She was a perfect
little lady, you know.
47
00:03:25,596 --> 00:03:27,076
You could
take her anyplace.
48
00:03:27,119 --> 00:03:28,643
In her own little way,
49
00:03:28,686 --> 00:03:30,427
she was
taking care of me.
50
00:03:30,471 --> 00:03:32,951
So then I went to work
one day a week,
51
00:03:32,995 --> 00:03:35,389
and then we decided
we'd buy a house--
this one.
52
00:03:35,432 --> 00:03:36,651
This one here.
53
00:03:36,694 --> 00:03:39,219
The one and only house we bought.
54
00:03:39,262 --> 00:03:42,091
I was raised a really
strict Catholic in Ireland.
55
00:03:42,134 --> 00:03:43,353
I mean, that was our life.
56
00:03:43,397 --> 00:03:44,354
Yeah, and--
57
00:03:44,398 --> 00:03:46,269
There is no other religion.
58
00:03:46,313 --> 00:03:48,532
I thought she was
a shining example
59
00:03:48,576 --> 00:03:50,055
of a good Catholic
60
00:03:50,099 --> 00:03:52,319
who had faith
in her religion
61
00:03:52,362 --> 00:03:55,278
whether I accepted
all the beliefs
of the Catholic Church
62
00:03:55,322 --> 00:03:56,671
or not.
63
00:03:56,714 --> 00:03:58,325
But I believed something--
64
00:03:58,368 --> 00:04:00,892
And, you know,
you raise your kids
that way, you know.
65
00:04:00,936 --> 00:04:02,198
That was
part of our life.
66
00:04:02,242 --> 00:04:03,417
It was our life,
actually.
67
00:04:03,460 --> 00:04:06,246
It sure was.
I found peace there,
68
00:04:06,289 --> 00:04:09,510
and, you know,
comfort, I guess.

I like-- I like helping people,
73
00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:38,930
and, as one of my priest friends said to me once,
74
00:04:38,974 --> 00:04:40,497
he said, "You're a people person."
75
00:04:40,541 --> 00:04:42,238
And I think that helped a lot
76
00:04:42,282 --> 00:04:46,329
to say, "Hey, I finally reached what-- all I'd like to do.
77
00:04:46,373 --> 00:04:48,549
"I think this is what I want to do.

I felt I was good with children.
82
00:04:58,515 --> 00:04:59,908
I've often asked myself,
83
00:04:59,951 --> 00:05:02,302
Why--Why did I...
84
00:05:02,345 --> 00:05:04,129
Why--Why do I like children so much?

00:05:04,173 --> 00:05:06,958
What--What do I want to do for them?

I feel compassionate to children

00:05:11,398 --> 00:05:15,576
who image what I was when I was their age,
89
00:05:15,619 --> 00:05:19,231
and did not have, um...
90
00:05:19,275 --> 00:05:21,277
somebody to turn to.

[Maria]
First time we met him
was in 1971.
93
00:05:26,717 --> 00:05:29,372
I was so excited
to meet somebody
from home.
94
00:05:29,416 --> 00:05:30,808
And
I'd only been here,
95
00:05:30,852 --> 00:05:32,332
like, five years
at that time.
96
00:05:32,375 --> 00:05:36,553
He would,
uh, come and spend
his days off here.
97
00:05:36,597 --> 00:05:39,991
Uh, he had a really
strong Irish accent
at that time,
98
00:05:40,035 --> 00:05:42,254
so we used to help him
with his sermons,
99
00:05:42,298 --> 00:05:44,344
and Ann would go
places with him.

[Oliver O'Grady] Ann Jyono.
101
00:05:47,259 --> 00:05:50,262
Little Ann, one of the first people I met there,
102
00:05:50,306 --> 00:05:51,742
or at least her parents.
103
00:05:51,786 --> 00:05:56,051
Her mother was Irish, father was Japanese--
104
00:05:56,094 --> 00:05:58,358
of Japanese extraction, I think--
105
00:05:58,401 --> 00:06:01,404
and was very welcome at their home
106
00:06:01,448 --> 00:06:05,452
for--for many, many years of my time in Lodi.
107
00:06:05,495 --> 00:06:10,282
I could, and was often invited to sleep over there.
108
00:06:10,326 --> 00:06:13,416
Perhaps that's where some of the problems began
109
00:06:13,460 --> 00:06:15,897
in that-- in Ann's situation.
110
00:06:21,468 --> 00:06:24,427
There are two types
of people in the Church:
111
00:06:24,471 --> 00:06:28,605
the hierarchy in the sacred
pastures, as they call them,
112
00:06:28,649 --> 00:06:31,129
who are picked out
by God to lead,
113
00:06:31,173 --> 00:06:33,349
and the vast throng
who are the lay people,
114
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:36,787
and their duty
obedient followers.
115
00:06:36,831 --> 00:06:38,354
It says that.
116
00:06:38,398 --> 00:06:40,312
The system,
it's a monarchy.
117
00:06:40,356 --> 00:06:43,185
All power
rests in individuals,
118
00:06:43,228 --> 00:06:46,101
and so the system
protects those individuals
119
00:06:46,144 --> 00:06:48,016
because it believes
that that is the will
120
00:06:48,059 --> 00:06:50,148
of the higher power,
of the Almighty:
121
00:06:50,192 --> 00:06:52,368
that He wants
those individuals
122
00:06:52,412 --> 00:06:56,024
to be powerful
in order to control
123
00:06:56,067 --> 00:06:58,940
this portion of reality
called Earth.
124
00:06:58,983 --> 00:07:01,159
And that's, I think, is--
125
00:07:01,203 --> 00:07:04,336
It may sound simplistic
and like science fiction,
126
00:07:04,380 --> 00:07:06,382
but that, in fact,
is what it is.
127
00:07:09,951 --> 00:07:12,606
I was, um...
128
00:07:12,649 --> 00:07:14,521
a student for eight years
at Holy Spirit,
129
00:07:14,564 --> 00:07:17,088
which is in
the Sacramento Diocese,
130
00:07:17,132 --> 00:07:20,135
and they had some kind of advertisement to Camp Pendola,
131
00:07:20,178 --> 00:07:22,920
and it was my first time ever going away to camp.
132
00:07:22,964 --> 00:07:25,488
None of my friends went to school there.
133
00:07:25,532 --> 00:07:27,969
Um, I didn't know anybody else there,
134
00:07:28,012 --> 00:07:30,624
and I actually wrote a letter to my mom
135
00:07:30,667 --> 00:07:32,277
that she had--
136
00:07:32,321 --> 00:07:33,844
Um, on the back of the envelope,
137
00:07:33,888 --> 00:07:35,455
I said I met a new friend,
138
00:07:35,498 --> 00:07:37,239
and his name was Father O'Grady.
139
00:07:37,282 --> 00:07:39,720
I remember him coming on a sleep-over
140
00:07:39,763 --> 00:07:41,286
with the other girls,
141
00:07:41,330 --> 00:07:43,158
and a couple of days later,
142
00:07:43,201 --> 00:07:45,552
the other girls
breaking out with poison oak,
143
00:07:45,595 --> 00:07:47,815
and them telling me
that I didn't have poison oak
144
00:07:47,858 --> 00:07:49,556
'cause I slept with Father.
145
00:07:52,559 --> 00:07:55,344
[O'Grady] And I think the thing that I'm going to regret most
146
00:07:55,387 --> 00:07:57,520
is that I allowed myself
147
00:07:57,564 --> 00:08:01,002
to--just to cuddling Nancy inside her bed one night
148
00:08:01,045 --> 00:08:03,091
when she was visiting with me.
149
00:08:03,134 --> 00:08:07,443
I would...label it love and concern--
150
00:08:07,487 --> 00:08:10,141
hugging, embracing.
151
00:08:10,185 --> 00:08:13,449
That-- That tended to, uh...
152
00:08:13,493 --> 00:08:17,235
satisfy me and...
153
00:08:17,279 --> 00:08:20,630
in a way that took care of my need
154
00:08:20,674 --> 00:08:23,677
to reach out to somebody, you know.
155
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:27,550
From there, I don't know
how the relationship started,
156
00:08:27,594 --> 00:08:29,813
that he got my address,
157
00:08:29,857 --> 00:08:33,469
that he got in contact
with my parents.
158
00:08:33,513 --> 00:08:36,733
He, um...
159
00:08:36,777 --> 00:08:39,475
came over to the house
a couple of times.
160
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:41,521
Uh, my mother's from Argentina,
161
00:08:41,564 --> 00:08:45,699
so she has more of a trusting attitude.
162
00:08:45,742 --> 00:08:47,918
She had told him, I think,
163
00:08:47,962 --> 00:08:51,574
that I was pulling away
from the family a little bit.
164
00:08:51,618 --> 00:08:53,533
Um, she thought
it was a good idea
165
00:08:53,576 --> 00:08:55,143
for me
to spend time with him.
166
00:09:00,191 --> 00:09:01,584

a variety of--
of areas to consider,
174
00:09:19,602 --> 00:09:21,256

I'd have to say
175

certainly
on the younger level.
176
00:09:23,954 --> 00:09:28,393

a lot of that surfaced.

And if they said,
178
00:09:29,786 --> 00:09:32,702
"Well, do you feel aroused
when you see women?"
179
00:09:32,746 --> 00:09:34,399
I'd probably say no.
180
00:09:34,443 --> 00:09:35,966
"Do you feel aroused
when you see men?" No.
181
00:09:36,010 --> 00:09:38,099
"Do you feel aroused
if you've seen children?"
182
00:09:38,142 --> 00:09:39,579
I'd say, "Well, maybe."
183
00:09:39,622 --> 00:09:43,495
"How about children
who are...in swimsuits?"
184
00:09:43,539 --> 00:09:45,410
I'd say, "Yeah."
185
00:09:45,454 --> 00:09:47,282
"How about children
in underwear?"
186
00:09:47,325 --> 00:09:50,372
I'd say, "Yeah," you know?
187
00:09:50,415 --> 00:09:52,592
I would--"If you thought
you saw children naked?"
188
00:09:52,635 --> 00:09:54,028
and I'd say, "Mmm, yeah."
189
00:09:55,377 --> 00:09:59,686
My last memory...of Oliver
190
00:09:59,729 --> 00:10:02,166
is severe...
191
00:10:05,605 --> 00:10:06,736
pain...
192
00:10:09,043 --> 00:10:10,784
before I black out.
193
00:10:16,006 --> 00:10:17,660
[Woman] Years ago,
194
00:10:17,704 --> 00:10:20,837
Case was Pastor of St. Anne's,
195
00:10:20,881 --> 00:10:25,233
and, uh, the parents called Case,
196
00:10:25,276 --> 00:10:29,063
and said to him, uh,
197
00:10:29,106 --> 00:10:33,023
"You know, when we
picked up our daughter,
198
00:10:33,067 --> 00:10:36,679
"she was not herself
at all.
199
00:10:36,723 --> 00:10:41,728
"She was very nervous
and looked very jumpy
200
00:10:41,771 --> 00:10:45,688
and looked extremely,
uh, anxious."
201
00:10:45,732 --> 00:10:48,256
[Nancy]
I mean, he took me
out of the house.
202
00:10:48,299 --> 00:10:51,041
I said, you know,
"Sometimes I get
carsick on the road."
203
00:10:51,085 --> 00:10:53,043
He said, "Put
your head on my lap,"
204
00:10:53,087 --> 00:10:54,349
and boom,
the abuse started.
205
00:10:54,392 --> 00:10:55,916
I mean,
I was on Highway 12,
206
00:10:55,959 --> 00:10:57,831
you know, two minutes
away from my house,
207
00:10:57,874 --> 00:10:59,049
when it started.
208
00:10:59,093 --> 00:11:01,008
And for 96 hours,
209
00:11:01,051 --> 00:11:03,706
that abuse was happening
until my parents came
210
00:11:03,750 --> 00:11:05,621
and said, "Did you
have fun with Father?"
211
00:11:05,665 --> 00:11:07,536
And I'm, like,
"He tickled me
too much."
212
00:11:07,579 --> 00:11:08,798
How do you
tell your parents
213
00:11:08,842 --> 00:11:10,147
what you just
went through?
214
00:11:10,191 --> 00:11:12,584
They finally
got it out of her
215
00:11:12,628 --> 00:11:15,326
that, uh,
during the night,
216
00:11:15,370 --> 00:11:18,460
Ollie
had come into her room
217
00:11:18,503 --> 00:11:21,158
and had molested her.
218
00:11:21,202 --> 00:11:25,728
I think I tried
to be affectionate with her
219
00:11:25,772 --> 00:11:27,730
by kissing her on the mouth.
220
00:11:27,774 --> 00:11:32,300
And I know
that my hand went down,
221
00:11:32,343 --> 00:11:34,868
and I think I brought up
her night dress
222
00:11:34,911 --> 00:11:37,348
and tried to--
223
00:11:37,392 --> 00:11:42,266
not tried to, I did touch her
in the genital area,
224
00:11:42,310 --> 00:11:44,704
perhaps outside her clothing
at first
225
00:11:44,747 --> 00:11:47,576
and maybe, although
I can't be specific,
226
00:11:47,619 --> 00:11:48,795
I think I probably tried
227
00:11:48,838 --> 00:11:52,320
to put my hand
inside her underwear,
228
00:11:52,363 --> 00:11:54,539
and I think
that's about the time
229
00:11:54,583 --> 00:11:57,499
I realized that...
230
00:11:57,542 --> 00:12:00,197
it was not correct
to continue,
231
00:12:00,241 --> 00:12:04,462
and--although I'm not...
232
00:12:04,506 --> 00:12:07,509
paraphrasing exactly
what I remember I did,
233
00:12:07,552 --> 00:12:09,293
but I think I want to say
234
00:12:09,337 --> 00:12:11,731
that I stopped
shortly afterwards
235
00:12:11,774 --> 00:12:16,387
and...left the bed,
left the room,
236
00:12:16,431 --> 00:12:18,999
and went back to my own bed.
237
00:12:19,042 --> 00:12:21,697
Case said, "Have you
ever done this before?"
238
00:12:21,741 --> 00:12:23,046
And "No."
239
00:12:23,090 --> 00:12:25,005
And--
So he told him.
240
00:12:25,048 --> 00:12:29,574
He said, "Ollie,
this is outrageous.
241
00:12:29,618 --> 00:12:32,316
"This is
the very type of thing
242
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,624
"that people
can go to prison for.
243
00:12:35,667 --> 00:12:37,582
"I want you to sit down
244
00:12:37,626 --> 00:12:40,803
and write a letter
of apology."
245
00:12:40,847 --> 00:12:43,588
[O'Grady] I took, you know, the occasion
246
00:12:43,632 --> 00:12:46,504
to write my letter to the victim,
247
00:12:46,548 --> 00:12:50,465
and to say, "Hey, I'm sorry."
248
00:12:50,508 --> 00:12:52,032
[Nancy]
"May I say first of all
249
00:12:52,075 --> 00:12:53,598
"that this
is a difficult letter
250
00:12:53,642 --> 00:12:55,513
"for me to write.
251
00:12:55,557 --> 00:12:57,820
"I have come
to like Nancy very much
252
00:12:57,864 --> 00:13:00,954
"and wanted to express
my friendship and love
for her
253
00:13:00,997 --> 00:13:03,739
"by having her
come stay with me.
254
00:13:05,567 --> 00:13:06,829
"I also must admit
255
00:13:06,873 --> 00:13:09,527
"that I feel
very affectionate
towards Nancy,
256
00:13:09,571 --> 00:13:11,791
"as I am sure I have
displayed many times,
257
00:13:11,834 --> 00:13:14,619
"even
in your presence.
258
00:13:14,663 --> 00:13:16,796
"Now comes
the difficult part.
259
00:13:18,841 --> 00:13:21,061
"Did I touch Nancy
260
00:13:21,104 --> 00:13:23,977
"in areas
which I shouldn't have?
261
00:13:24,020 --> 00:13:29,156
"I have to admit that I did
on a few occasions.
262
00:13:29,199 --> 00:13:32,246
"I guess I became
overly affectionate,
263
00:13:32,289 --> 00:13:34,683
"and took advantage
of the situation
264
00:13:34,726 --> 00:13:37,381
"and went
a little too far.
265
00:13:37,425 --> 00:13:41,864
"I have already written
for an appointment
with my bishop.
266
00:13:41,908 --> 00:13:44,824
"I realize
the big responsibility
267
00:13:44,867 --> 00:13:46,434
"I have as a priest,
268
00:13:46,477 --> 00:13:50,830
"and the high ideals
which I must uphold.
269
00:13:50,873 --> 00:13:53,267
"But I am
also painfully aware
270
00:13:53,310 --> 00:13:55,095
"of my own weakness,
271
00:13:55,138 --> 00:13:59,490
"and how hard it is
at times
272
00:13:59,534 --> 00:14:02,842
"to keep
the ideals of priesthood
273
00:14:02,885 --> 00:14:04,669
"in front of me...
274
00:14:11,415 --> 00:14:16,899
"when temptations
to satisfy one's own ego
275
00:14:16,943 --> 00:14:19,249
present themselves."
276
00:14:23,471 --> 00:14:25,952
He said, "You need to know
277
00:14:25,995 --> 00:14:29,869
I've already called
Bishop Guilfoyle,"
278
00:14:29,912 --> 00:14:32,741
who was the bishop
at the time,
279
00:14:32,784 --> 00:14:37,702
and, uh, "As soon as
our talk is finished here,
280
00:14:37,746 --> 00:14:38,965
you're getting
right in the car."
281
00:14:39,008 --> 00:14:41,228
I mean, my mother says
282
00:14:41,271 --> 00:14:43,970
that when she was having
the meeting with Guilfoyle,
283
00:14:44,013 --> 00:14:45,841
he was completely saying,
284
00:14:45,885 --> 00:14:48,496
"Oh, I'm sure Nancy just
misunderstood his actions.
285
00:14:48,539 --> 00:14:50,063
"I'm sure she--
286
00:14:50,106 --> 00:14:51,934
what she says happened
really didn't happen."
287
00:14:51,978 --> 00:14:55,503
Even though Oliver had
already made an appointment,
288
00:14:55,546 --> 00:14:59,463
Guilfoyle had already talked
to Case DeGroot about it.
289
00:14:59,507 --> 00:15:01,509
My mom's having this meeting,
290
00:15:01,552 --> 00:15:03,990
and he's saying, "Oh, I'm sure
nothing really happened,"
291
00:15:04,033 --> 00:15:04,991
blah, blah, blah.
292
00:15:05,034 --> 00:15:06,557
My mom pulls out this letter,
293
00:15:06,601 --> 00:15:08,124
and she said
his face went beet-red.
294
00:15:08,168 --> 00:15:09,952
He was furious
because of the letter.
295
00:15:09,996 --> 00:15:12,737
[Man]
Why was he
angry about that?
296
00:15:12,781 --> 00:15:15,305
Uh, for legal reasons,
I'm sure.
297
00:15:15,349 --> 00:15:17,917
Of the, you know--
I think he was anxious
298
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,964
that, uh, the letter
be destroyed
299
00:15:22,008 --> 00:15:25,446
or in some way...
300
00:15:25,489 --> 00:15:26,969
disappear.
301
00:15:29,015 --> 00:15:31,452
Case wanted to make sure
302
00:15:31,495 --> 00:15:36,979
that Ollie was going
to be getting counseling
for this,
303
00:15:37,023 --> 00:15:40,722
but when he inquired,
304
00:15:40,765 --> 00:15:44,117
the bishop felt that,
uh...
305
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,858
he had done his part,
he had brought him down,
306
00:15:46,902 --> 00:15:50,950
and in essence,
his part was over,
307
00:15:50,993 --> 00:15:55,867
and he should not continue
to be a part of this.
308
00:16:31,077 --> 00:16:35,124
I remember saying
one time to Case--
309
00:16:35,168 --> 00:16:36,908
we were driving somewhere,
310
00:16:36,952 --> 00:16:41,348
and Ollie's name came up
for one or another reason:
311
00:16:41,391 --> 00:16:44,003
what he does
on his day off, you know,
312
00:16:44,046 --> 00:16:46,179
and...
313
00:16:46,222 --> 00:16:48,224
when I said,
"Well, you know,
314
00:16:48,268 --> 00:16:52,750
he sleeps over
at Maria's house,"
315
00:16:52,794 --> 00:16:58,017
and I could see
he got so, like, nervous,
316
00:16:58,060 --> 00:17:01,063
but he didn't say
anything to me.
317
00:17:02,108 --> 00:17:04,371
[Bob]
The reasons we asked him
318
00:17:04,414 --> 00:17:06,329
to stay overnight sometimes
319
00:17:06,373 --> 00:17:09,115
is because the church
can be hectic,
320
00:17:09,158 --> 00:17:12,335
and, like, a priest
can be on 24-hour duty
321
00:17:12,379 --> 00:17:16,687
because parishioners
may need help,
322
00:17:16,731 --> 00:17:18,602
and it was
kind of like a relief
323
00:17:18,646 --> 00:17:20,039
to get away from work.
324
00:17:20,082 --> 00:17:24,086
The duties that a priest
has to perform
325
00:17:24,130 --> 00:17:26,219
shouldn't take up
all his time.
326
00:17:26,262 --> 00:17:29,091
And I do remember
one time, I think--
327
00:17:29,135 --> 00:17:32,094
And that was his answer
to non-married priests.
328
00:17:32,138 --> 00:17:34,140
In other religions
they're married.Yeah.
329
00:17:34,183 --> 00:17:36,968
It would be so much
easier to help people
330
00:17:37,012 --> 00:17:38,361
in the Catholic
religion--
331
00:17:38,405 --> 00:17:39,971
'Cause you know
what a family's like.
332
00:17:40,015 --> 00:17:42,104
...if they had
a family of their own,
333
00:17:42,148 --> 00:17:44,106
and he used to say
he couldn't do that.
334
00:17:44,150 --> 00:17:45,368
He couldn't do both.
335
00:17:45,412 --> 00:17:48,110
Yeah, 'cause of the work
with the church
336
00:17:48,154 --> 00:17:49,546
that, you know,
337
00:17:49,590 --> 00:17:53,028
what he says is dedication
to the Church, you know.
338
00:17:53,072 --> 00:17:55,857
You have to have celibacy
because you can't give--
339
00:17:55,900 --> 00:17:59,643
But I says, "How do you know
how a family functions?"
340
00:17:59,687 --> 00:18:04,170
And he would say, "Well,
by education, school."
341
00:18:04,213 --> 00:18:06,433
[Woman]
You know, looking back
at it now in reflection,
342
00:18:06,476 --> 00:18:08,391
it's more
like a power trip
343
00:18:08,435 --> 00:18:11,046
that he would have us
robe him,
344
00:18:11,090 --> 00:18:13,048
like he was a deity,
you know?
345
00:18:13,092 --> 00:18:15,920
Like he was the king
or something, you know?
346
00:18:15,964 --> 00:18:20,186
He would call us
out of class, you know.
347
00:18:20,229 --> 00:18:22,536
He would--He had
total control of us
348
00:18:22,579 --> 00:18:24,103
'cause
he was at our school,
349
00:18:24,146 --> 00:18:27,715
he was at our home,
he was at church.
350
00:18:27,758 --> 00:18:29,804
In a Catholic lifestyle,
351
00:18:29,847 --> 00:18:32,154
what else is left
after that?
352
00:18:32,198 --> 00:18:34,896
What part of my life
wasn't he at?
353
00:18:34,939 --> 00:18:36,027
I absolutely, you know.
354
00:18:36,071 --> 00:18:38,204
I mean, there's an awful
lot of my areas
355
00:18:38,247 --> 00:18:41,120
that I was ill-equipped
to handle, you know.
356
00:18:41,163 --> 00:18:42,643
Counseling would be
one of them.
357
00:18:42,686 --> 00:18:45,124
If I were back in,
I'd never counsel people,
358
00:18:45,167 --> 00:18:47,038
unless I took training
in it, you know.
359
00:18:47,082 --> 00:18:51,217
Because apparently I wasn't
able to spot the differences,
360
00:18:51,260 --> 00:18:55,264
spot the elements
that, uh...
361
00:18:55,308 --> 00:18:57,048
There were danger signals,
362
00:18:57,092 --> 00:18:59,790
that--that a therapist,
you know, would know
363
00:18:59,834 --> 00:19:02,967
to say, "Oh, there's
transference here,"
you know.
364
00:19:03,011 --> 00:19:05,492
This person is not alone,
coming to me once a week.
365
00:19:05,535 --> 00:19:08,538
This person is calling me
on the phone twice a day.
366
00:19:08,582 --> 00:19:11,193
This person
is calling me on the phone
367
00:19:11,237 --> 00:19:14,153
about things that are
insignificant right now.
368
00:19:14,196 --> 00:19:16,067
"My God, what do I have
for dinner?"
369
00:19:16,111 --> 00:19:18,157
Whatever you like.
Why are you calling me?
370
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,117
You've had dinner before.
You'll have dinner again.
371
00:19:22,161 --> 00:19:24,206
But, you know,
what was there about me
372
00:19:24,250 --> 00:19:27,688
that kind of said
"You cancall me,"
373
00:19:27,731 --> 00:19:29,820
you know?
374
00:19:29,864 --> 00:19:32,954
This was somebody
that we knew
for 23 years,
375
00:19:32,997 --> 00:19:35,086
totally trusted.
376
00:19:35,130 --> 00:19:36,262
We trusted him
because--
377
00:19:36,305 --> 00:19:38,220
And now, you know,
I hear, you know,
378
00:19:38,264 --> 00:19:40,222
things he did
with other families,
379
00:19:40,266 --> 00:19:43,834
and...
380
00:19:43,878 --> 00:19:45,923
I just feel, uh...
381
00:19:45,967 --> 00:19:48,926
I never saw
that side of him.
382
00:19:48,970 --> 00:19:50,406
You know,
we were supporting him
383
00:19:50,450 --> 00:19:52,756
up to the very,
very end,
384
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:56,934
'cause he was--
he was the perfect...
385
00:19:56,978 --> 00:19:59,937
example of what you
would think a priest
would be
386
00:19:59,981 --> 00:20:02,201
when he was
here in our house.
387
00:20:02,244 --> 00:20:04,986
I mean, he was
always respectful.
388
00:20:05,029 --> 00:20:08,163
He was--
Anything that I saw
with him with the kids,
389
00:20:08,207 --> 00:20:09,556
he was fine.
390
00:20:09,599 --> 00:20:10,948
He would stay here.
391
00:20:10,992 --> 00:20:13,212
I mean, you'd see him
in here in the morning
392
00:20:13,255 --> 00:20:14,648
reading his Bible.
393
00:20:14,691 --> 00:20:16,084
He was everything that I--
394
00:20:16,127 --> 00:20:17,390
I'd go to work and--
395
00:20:17,433 --> 00:20:19,740
He was the closest
thing to God that we knew.
396
00:20:19,783 --> 00:20:21,959
[chanting in Latin]
397
00:20:24,484 --> 00:20:25,876
[Man] Being Catholic
398
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:30,664
is, uh, not like
being a Lutheran
399
00:20:30,707 --> 00:20:32,318
or a Presbyterian.
400
00:20:32,361 --> 00:20:34,755
The thing that,
for a lot of non-Catholics
401
00:20:34,798 --> 00:20:36,365
is hard to understand is,
402
00:20:36,409 --> 00:20:39,150
the Church teaches
to salvation, way
403
00:20:39,194 --> 00:20:41,152
if you're Catholic,
is through the Church,
404
00:20:41,196 --> 00:20:43,329
and if you're not in communion with the Church,
405
00:20:43,372 --> 00:20:44,634
you're damned to hell.
406
00:20:44,678 --> 00:20:47,115
And it's not just kind of like without-God hell.
407
00:20:47,158 --> 00:20:50,161
It's fire and brimstone hell for eternity.
408
00:20:50,205 --> 00:20:51,293
Well, the Eucharist,
409
00:20:51,337 --> 00:20:53,469
as we call it
in Catholic theology,
410
00:20:53,513 --> 00:20:56,298
the Holy Communion
of the bread and wine
411
00:20:56,342 --> 00:20:58,779
that for some is the body and blood of Christ,
412
00:20:58,822 --> 00:21:00,998
for others represents the body and blood of Christ.
413
00:21:01,042 --> 00:21:03,218
No matter what you call-- what rules you use,
414
00:21:03,262 --> 00:21:04,611
it's essential to Catholicism.
415
00:21:04,654 --> 00:21:07,614
The power
of the Eucharist
416
00:21:07,657 --> 00:21:10,312
is what the Church
has held over people,
417
00:21:10,356 --> 00:21:11,835
that "I,
as an ordained person
418
00:21:11,879 --> 00:21:13,402
"with
an indelible mark,
419
00:21:13,446 --> 00:21:14,969
"can make
Holy Communion
420
00:21:15,012 --> 00:21:17,754
"is what separates
you from me,
421
00:21:17,798 --> 00:21:19,321
"what separates me
422
00:21:19,365 --> 00:21:21,367
from the average person
going down the street."
423
00:21:21,410 --> 00:21:22,977
And if you think of,
you know,
424
00:21:23,020 --> 00:21:25,806
the earliest commun--
church comminutes,
425
00:21:25,849 --> 00:21:27,764
it wasn't controlled
by the clergy.
426
00:21:27,808 --> 00:21:29,200
It was breaking of bread
427
00:21:29,244 --> 00:21:30,463
and passed around to believing people
428
00:21:30,506 --> 00:21:32,943
as the symbol of Christ's presence--
429
00:21:32,987 --> 00:21:34,554
spiritual presence among us.
430
00:21:34,597 --> 00:21:37,774
But then it has become controlled in many ways,
431
00:21:37,818 --> 00:21:39,385
and politicized.
432
00:21:39,428 --> 00:21:41,865
So, for instance, if you're married and divorced
433
00:21:41,909 --> 00:21:43,911
and remarried but not by a priest,
434
00:21:43,954 --> 00:21:45,173
you can't go to Communion.
435
00:21:45,216 --> 00:21:46,435
If you're gay
436
00:21:46,479 --> 00:21:48,655
and you're not absolutely chaste and celibate,
437
00:21:48,698 --> 00:21:50,047
you can't go to Communion.
438
00:21:50,091 --> 00:21:52,006
If you vote for somebody
439
00:21:52,049 --> 00:21:54,356
who, uh,
approves of abortion,
440
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,315
you can't go to Communion,
according to some.
441
00:21:56,358 --> 00:22:00,362
So it's become a kind
of a politicized reward
442
00:22:00,406 --> 00:22:01,885
for thinking the right way,
443
00:22:01,929 --> 00:22:03,800
when, in effect,
it's none of the above.
444
00:22:03,844 --> 00:22:06,237
[John Manly] I can't think of anything more evil
445
00:22:06,281 --> 00:22:08,239
than a priest using his office,
446
00:22:08,283 --> 00:22:10,633
what the Catholics would callalter Christus,
447
00:22:10,677 --> 00:22:13,244
when the priest raises that host at Mass
448
00:22:13,288 --> 00:22:15,290
and consecrates that host,
449
00:22:15,334 --> 00:22:16,813
the priest becomes one with Christ.
450
00:22:16,857 --> 00:22:18,380
The Catholics believe,
451
00:22:18,424 --> 00:22:20,164
and we're all taught as little kids,
452
00:22:20,208 --> 00:22:21,992
that it's truly Jesus Christ.
453
00:22:22,036 --> 00:22:23,559
To take that hand,
454
00:22:23,603 --> 00:22:26,301
within moments
before or after that,
455
00:22:26,345 --> 00:22:29,783
and place them
and abuse him--nitals
456
00:22:29,826 --> 00:22:31,350
And I think that was part
457
00:22:31,393 --> 00:22:34,483
of the terrible
destruction to the child
458
00:22:34,527 --> 00:22:37,356
that in addition
to all the other...
459
00:22:37,399 --> 00:22:39,445
consequences--
long-term consequences
460
00:22:39,488 --> 00:22:41,577
of being sexually abused,
461
00:22:41,621 --> 00:22:46,147
the spiritual abuse,
um, of being abused
462
00:22:46,190 --> 00:22:50,586
by a--a embodiment
of the divine,
if you will,
463
00:22:50,630 --> 00:22:53,372
um,
was just devastating.
464
00:22:55,417 --> 00:22:58,246
[Nancy] I asked for a meeting with Oliver O'Grady
465
00:22:58,289 --> 00:23:00,509
in '86,
466
00:23:00,553 --> 00:23:02,772
and they told me, you know,
467
00:23:02,816 --> 00:23:04,295
"Vengeance is wrong.
468
00:23:04,339 --> 00:23:06,341
"He's a virtue of priesthood now.
469
00:23:06,385 --> 00:23:09,431
"He's in counseling.
Check your motives.
470
00:23:09,475 --> 00:23:12,260
"God will delve out punishments.
471
00:23:12,303 --> 00:23:13,609
You don't need to."
472
00:23:13,653 --> 00:23:17,439
[Man]
When Nancy Sloan came
to you in the '80s,
473
00:23:17,483 --> 00:23:19,310
she was distressed,
correct?
474
00:23:19,354 --> 00:23:21,095
1986, was it?
475
00:23:21,138 --> 00:23:23,619
Was she distressed?
476
00:23:23,663 --> 00:23:26,100
No, she--she wasn't.
477
00:23:27,971 --> 00:23:30,234
Was she just doing
just fine?
478
00:23:30,278 --> 00:23:32,889
She--
The first time I saw her
479
00:23:32,933 --> 00:23:34,717
was that--that day.
480
00:23:34,761 --> 00:23:38,504
I hadn't known
anything about her.
481
00:23:38,547 --> 00:23:42,899
Uh, she seemed
very composed.
482
00:23:42,943 --> 00:23:44,466
He just went on and on,
483
00:23:44,510 --> 00:23:46,555
lashing out
all this guilt on me,
484
00:23:46,599 --> 00:23:48,122
when I told him, you know,
485
00:23:48,165 --> 00:23:50,516
I just want him
to understand the depth
486
00:23:50,559 --> 00:23:52,866
of the pain that I suffer
on a regular basis,
487
00:23:52,909 --> 00:23:57,174
that how, when I see
a Dodge Duster,
488
00:23:57,218 --> 00:23:59,873
which was the car
that he drove at the time,
489
00:23:59,916 --> 00:24:02,353
how I still pull over
and dry heave.
490
00:24:02,397 --> 00:24:03,485
[Man]
What did she want?
491
00:24:03,529 --> 00:24:05,574
She wanted to know
492
00:24:05,618 --> 00:24:10,492
whether Father O'Grady
was continuing
493
00:24:10,536 --> 00:24:13,539
in, uh, therapy.
494
00:24:13,582 --> 00:24:14,801
What did you tell her?
495
00:24:14,844 --> 00:24:17,891
I told that I would--
I--I thought he was,
496
00:24:17,934 --> 00:24:20,284
but I would check
on it for sure.
497
00:24:20,328 --> 00:24:22,112
Was he?
Yes.
498
00:24:22,156 --> 00:24:25,812
I told him, "You knew
that I was being abused.
499
00:24:25,855 --> 00:24:28,510
"You knew that the abuse
was happening.
500
00:24:28,554 --> 00:24:30,207
How could you not
have done something?"
501
00:24:30,251 --> 00:24:33,559
So Bishop Montrose knew
O'Grady was an abuser?
502
00:24:33,602 --> 00:24:37,040
He knew that O'Grady
had been accused of, uh,
503
00:24:37,084 --> 00:24:40,435
inappropriate touching
in '76.
504
00:24:40,479 --> 00:24:45,309
Just like every other bishop
after '76.
505
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:51,838
Right?
506
00:24:51,881 --> 00:24:53,927
Yes.
507
00:24:53,970 --> 00:24:56,364
[Nancy] And he said,
508
00:24:56,407 --> 00:24:58,758
"We knew that you
were being abused,
509
00:24:58,801 --> 00:25:01,500
"but you were a girl,
510
00:25:01,543 --> 00:25:04,546
"so we thought
it was normal curiosity.
511
00:25:04,590 --> 00:25:06,156
"Had you been a boy,
512
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,376
"we would have thought
something was wrong with it.
513
00:25:08,419 --> 00:25:10,160
"That would have been obscene
514
00:25:10,204 --> 00:25:13,424
"for him
to have abused a boy,
515
00:25:13,468 --> 00:25:15,557
like homosexual."
516
00:25:18,995 --> 00:25:21,476
[O'Grady] The situation was, I'm alone with the boy.
517
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:25,480
There wasn't anybody else in the rectory at the time.
518
00:25:25,524 --> 00:25:27,003
I brought him in.
519
00:25:27,047 --> 00:25:29,179
I had been affectionate with him before,
520
00:25:29,223 --> 00:25:30,616
so being affectionate again with him
521
00:25:30,659 --> 00:25:35,316
wasn't that difficult a thing to do, which I was.
522
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,492
And I remember, uh,
523
00:25:37,536 --> 00:25:39,450
just holding him and hugging him
524
00:25:39,494 --> 00:25:42,062
and probably saying some nice things to him,
525
00:25:42,105 --> 00:25:45,544
and he was responding as well, you know.
526
00:25:45,587 --> 00:25:49,112
And the thought that had gone to my mind, actually,
527
00:25:49,156 --> 00:25:51,680
was to...
528
00:25:51,724 --> 00:25:53,900
to take off all his clothes
529
00:25:53,943 --> 00:25:57,468
and to molest him that way.
530
00:25:57,512 --> 00:26:02,125
And I think I may have taken off his T-shirt,
531
00:26:02,169 --> 00:26:06,826
and then I was going to unbuckle his pants,
532
00:26:06,869 --> 00:26:08,218
and there was a feeling--
533
00:26:08,262 --> 00:26:10,394
I didn't know if I wanted to go--
534
00:26:10,438 --> 00:26:12,309
There was a conflict in my mind about,
535
00:26:12,353 --> 00:26:14,268
"Do I really want to do this?
536
00:26:14,311 --> 00:26:17,010
"Uh, here's somebody that I like.
537
00:26:17,053 --> 00:26:20,883
"Here's somebody that I...I respect,
538
00:26:20,927 --> 00:26:22,668
"a family I respect.
539
00:26:22,711 --> 00:26:26,889
Uh, what would he feel like at the end of this?"
540
00:26:26,933 --> 00:26:28,630
Yet, at the other side,
541
00:26:28,674 --> 00:26:33,548
there was urges within me to--to be sexual with him,
542
00:26:33,592 --> 00:26:36,333
and this is an opportunity to be sexual with him
543
00:26:36,377 --> 00:26:39,423
because I wouldn't have this opportunity again
544
00:26:39,467 --> 00:26:41,991
God knows when.
545
00:26:42,035 --> 00:26:47,518
And so I decided not to be affectionate with him,
546
00:26:47,562 --> 00:26:51,827
and yet later, I brought him back into my bedroom again,
547
00:26:51,871 --> 00:26:56,963
and I did unbutton his pants,
548
00:26:57,006 --> 00:26:58,399
take out his penis,
549
00:26:58,442 --> 00:27:01,184
and I began to masturbate him at that time.
550
00:27:01,228 --> 00:27:02,533
And...
551
00:27:05,406 --> 00:27:07,669
I think what I-- in doing that,
552
00:27:07,713 --> 00:27:10,193
I'm not too sure what he was feeling with all--
553
00:27:10,237 --> 00:27:11,717
I think, looking at his face
554
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,676
kind of told me that he was, uh...
555
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,636
a little uneasy about this.
556
00:27:17,679 --> 00:27:21,727
I thought at one point he was going to cry, you know.
557
00:27:21,770 --> 00:27:24,294
One of the few times it had ever happened to me,
558
00:27:24,338 --> 00:27:27,602
I had an orgasm myself...
559
00:27:27,646 --> 00:27:29,430
without him touching me,
560
00:27:29,473 --> 00:27:32,651
and I think that--that ended it right there and then.
561
00:27:32,694 --> 00:27:35,784
So I just tidied him up,
562
00:27:35,828 --> 00:27:41,442
and perhaps I took care of myself, too, in the bathroom alone,
563
00:27:41,485 --> 00:27:44,097
but I tidied him up and put on his T-shirt,
564
00:27:44,140 --> 00:27:47,013
and then I made a decision right there and then.
565
00:27:47,056 --> 00:27:49,624
I was not going to do that again to this boy.
566
00:28:00,983 --> 00:28:02,811
There's Ireland.
567
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:05,118
Yeah.
568
00:28:05,161 --> 00:28:06,336
He went with us.
569
00:28:06,380 --> 00:28:07,555
Yeah.
570
00:28:07,598 --> 00:28:09,122
There he is
with Grandma and Grandpa.
571
00:28:09,165 --> 00:28:10,689
That's right.
That's you.
572
00:28:10,732 --> 00:28:11,690
Yep.
573
00:28:11,733 --> 00:28:12,691
You're standing there.
574
00:28:12,734 --> 00:28:14,170
Behind the car.
575
00:28:14,214 --> 00:28:15,302
Yeah.
576
00:28:17,608 --> 00:28:19,001
That's your
Communion picture.
577
00:28:19,045 --> 00:28:20,002
Yep.
578
00:28:20,046 --> 00:28:21,700
With Mahony.
579
00:28:28,881 --> 00:28:31,753
I'm angry at Mahony
580
00:28:31,797 --> 00:28:36,889
for claiming that he had
absolutely no knowledge
581
00:28:36,932 --> 00:28:38,455
of this pedophile
582
00:28:38,499 --> 00:28:41,545
who had a file,
a sub-secrete file,
583
00:28:41,589 --> 00:28:43,765
that had pieces of evidence,
584
00:28:43,809 --> 00:28:46,115
that had, you know,
585
00:28:46,159 --> 00:28:49,771
a, um, a father who had--
586
00:28:49,815 --> 00:28:51,730
the Howard father
who had come forward
587
00:28:51,773 --> 00:28:53,819
with his concerns
about the amount of time
588
00:28:53,862 --> 00:28:57,648
that his children were alone
on Oliver O'Grady's days off.
589
00:29:39,952 --> 00:29:43,216
'76 to '84,
590
00:29:43,259 --> 00:29:48,221
that's, I think, when
a lot of the Howards'
situation took place,
591
00:29:48,264 --> 00:29:51,790
and, you know, if I was
involved with them,
592
00:29:51,833 --> 00:29:53,835
I was a danger to them,
593
00:29:53,879 --> 00:29:55,924
but I would have been
a danger to others
as well.
594
00:29:55,968 --> 00:29:57,621
[Man]
Were you concerned
595
00:29:57,665 --> 00:29:58,971
about Father O'Grady's
conduct
596
00:29:59,014 --> 00:30:02,844
with regard to the Howard
family in 1980?
597
00:30:02,888 --> 00:30:05,499
I called him in
598
00:30:05,542 --> 00:30:08,589
and told him that he was
to cease and desist
599
00:30:08,632 --> 00:30:11,244
any more conduct--
uh, contact
600
00:30:11,287 --> 00:30:13,724
with Mrs. Howard
or the Howard family.
601
00:30:13,768 --> 00:30:15,726
He promised to do so,
602
00:30:15,770 --> 00:30:17,990
and I never had
another report
603
00:30:18,033 --> 00:30:20,122
about him
and the Howards.
604
00:30:20,166 --> 00:30:21,863
[O'Grady] I visited with the bishop,
605
00:30:21,907 --> 00:30:25,084
and we had a conference,
606
00:30:25,127 --> 00:30:28,000
and I had mentioned that perhaps I should need some counseling
607
00:30:28,043 --> 00:30:30,916
to get an understanding of this,
608
00:30:30,959 --> 00:30:33,353
and the bishop kind of at that time
609
00:30:33,396 --> 00:30:34,920
said, "Okay, go ahead and do that."
610
00:30:34,963 --> 00:30:39,315
You know, I'd say,
"Bless me, Father,
for I have sinned. I..."
611
00:30:39,359 --> 00:30:41,535
Sometimes it's good
to give them a time limit
612
00:30:41,578 --> 00:30:43,102
as to when your last
confession was,
613
00:30:43,145 --> 00:30:45,626
and so I'm--"Well, I
was with some friends
of mine yesterday,
614
00:30:45,669 --> 00:30:47,193
"and some of them
are young children,
615
00:30:47,236 --> 00:30:48,455
"and I had
the opportunity
616
00:30:48,498 --> 00:30:50,849
"to be alone
with one of them,
617
00:30:50,892 --> 00:30:54,156
"and I did some things
618
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:55,897
"such as to touch
his private parts,
619
00:30:55,941 --> 00:30:59,858
"and took occasion
to do that a few times
620
00:30:59,901 --> 00:31:01,903
"when he was alone with me,
621
00:31:01,947 --> 00:31:05,907
"and...I want to confess
that right now,
622
00:31:05,951 --> 00:31:08,214
ask forgiveness
and absolution."
623
00:31:11,434 --> 00:31:13,045
If it had come
to your attention
624
00:31:13,088 --> 00:31:17,266
that Father O'Grady told
a, uh, your vicar-general
625
00:31:17,310 --> 00:31:20,661
that he had sexual urges
towards a 9-year-old
626
00:31:20,704 --> 00:31:22,924
or 10-year-old
or an 11-year old,
627
00:31:22,968 --> 00:31:27,450
is that cause to remove him
from ministry?
628
00:31:27,494 --> 00:31:28,451
No.
629
00:31:28,495 --> 00:31:31,106
And the Church
just moved him
630
00:31:31,150 --> 00:31:34,501
to another place
where they have kids.
631
00:31:34,544 --> 00:31:36,938
Why didn't they
just take him out?
632
00:31:36,982 --> 00:31:39,941
Why didn't they admit it?
633
00:31:39,985 --> 00:31:42,901
There was no action
taken
634
00:31:42,944 --> 00:31:47,557
that would remove him
from children,
635
00:31:47,601 --> 00:31:52,388
and so when you transfer him
from one place to another,
636
00:31:52,432 --> 00:31:58,481
it's...just a tragedy
waiting to happen.
637
00:32:35,170 --> 00:32:36,563
[O'Grady] Like again,
638
00:32:36,606 --> 00:32:38,173
the '84 situation, what brought it up
639
00:32:38,217 --> 00:32:40,871
was, you know, I'm not feeling right inside.
640
00:32:40,915 --> 00:32:42,047
There's something not right.
641
00:32:42,090 --> 00:32:44,005
I need to take care of this.
642
00:32:44,049 --> 00:32:46,007
When I had mentioned it to my counselor,
643
00:32:46,051 --> 00:32:47,878
this time a professional counselor--
644
00:32:47,922 --> 00:32:49,924
uh, he was a layman--
645
00:32:49,968 --> 00:32:52,753
He was very helpful, you know?
646
00:32:52,796 --> 00:32:57,018
And, uh, he about pulled the whole tablecloth
647
00:32:57,062 --> 00:32:59,020
out from under me, you know?
648
00:32:59,064 --> 00:33:01,457
And, uh, all of a sudden,
649
00:33:01,501 --> 00:33:05,026
I saw this massive... problem, you know,
650
00:33:05,070 --> 00:33:08,073
that I had,
651
00:33:08,116 --> 00:33:11,946
these tendencies that I had,
652
00:33:11,990 --> 00:33:14,035
and this vale of destruction
653
00:33:14,079 --> 00:33:16,690
that I had created as a result of that.
654
00:33:16,733 --> 00:33:19,040
And that was very frightening,
655
00:33:19,084 --> 00:33:22,739
very difficult to, uh, to comprehend,
656
00:33:22,783 --> 00:33:24,872
and even to want to comprehend
657
00:33:24,915 --> 00:33:26,613
at that particular time
658
00:33:26,656 --> 00:33:29,137
that that was going on.
659
00:33:29,181 --> 00:33:32,749
But that's what he did
when he confronted me,
660
00:33:32,793 --> 00:33:37,406
and said, "I need--
I need to report this,"
661
00:33:37,450 --> 00:33:40,322
and he meant report it
to the authorities--
662
00:33:40,366 --> 00:33:42,150
police department--
663
00:33:42,194 --> 00:33:44,022
and that really
scared me, you know?
664
00:33:44,065 --> 00:33:45,023
That really woke me up.
665
00:33:58,732 --> 00:34:00,081
My counselor suggested
666
00:34:00,125 --> 00:34:05,173
that I now talk
to the bishop's office.
667
00:34:05,217 --> 00:34:06,957
Well, I'm aware right now
668
00:34:07,001 --> 00:34:10,004
that a personnel file
is kept on each person,
669
00:34:10,048 --> 00:34:12,050
so I would
tend to think that,
670
00:34:12,093 --> 00:34:14,095
knowing Mahony as he is,
671
00:34:14,139 --> 00:34:16,010
that he would have
gone through all those
672
00:34:16,054 --> 00:34:17,968
and would have seen
any references
673
00:34:18,012 --> 00:34:19,927
that would have been
in the file
674
00:34:19,970 --> 00:34:23,670
regarding the 1973
and 1976 issues,
675
00:34:23,713 --> 00:34:25,411
and that, I think
should have told him
676
00:34:25,454 --> 00:34:28,718
that there was, you know,
not just a one-shot deal,
677
00:34:28,762 --> 00:34:32,026
but there was at least
two prior situations
678
00:34:32,070 --> 00:34:33,636
that needed
to be dealt with.
679
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:35,986
I should have been
removed--
680
00:34:36,030 --> 00:34:38,163
Ahem--
681
00:34:38,206 --> 00:34:39,860
...and attended to,
682
00:34:39,903 --> 00:34:42,558
and he should also,
then, have followed up
683
00:34:42,602 --> 00:34:45,735
by attending to the people
that I harmed.
684
00:34:45,779 --> 00:34:48,303
I'd like
if he had done that,
685
00:34:48,347 --> 00:34:51,001
like if all of
the bishops had done that.
686
00:34:51,045 --> 00:34:54,570
Now, I didn't talk
to Mahony right away.
687
00:34:54,614 --> 00:34:57,878
I think I talked
to the other monsignor.
688
00:34:57,921 --> 00:34:59,184
There was
a Monsignor Cain.
689
00:34:59,227 --> 00:35:03,144
Did you think it was
important in 1984
690
00:35:03,188 --> 00:35:06,974
that the Stockton
Police Department
691
00:35:07,017 --> 00:35:12,762
be advised not only
of the information
692
00:35:12,806 --> 00:35:14,155
concerning
young Mr. Howard,
693
00:35:14,199 --> 00:35:15,939
but also
that there had been
694
00:35:15,983 --> 00:35:20,335
a prior allegation
by Nancy Sloan's family
695
00:35:20,379 --> 00:35:23,599
of inappropriate touching?
696
00:35:23,643 --> 00:35:24,774
No.
697
00:35:24,818 --> 00:35:26,820
Well, how would they
uncover
698
00:35:26,863 --> 00:35:28,778
what happened
to Nancy Sloan,
699
00:35:28,822 --> 00:35:31,520
unless someone
from the diocese
told them?
700
00:35:31,564 --> 00:35:32,869
They wouldn't,
701
00:35:32,913 --> 00:35:35,307
and at the time,
702
00:35:35,350 --> 00:35:37,396
the two just
were not related.
703
00:35:37,439 --> 00:35:40,181
They just didn't
coordinate.
704
00:35:40,225 --> 00:35:42,705
What do you mean when you say
they weren't related,
705
00:35:42,749 --> 00:35:44,142
they didn't coordinate?
706
00:35:44,185 --> 00:35:45,926
Well,
at the time of--of..
707
00:35:45,969 --> 00:35:49,103
that he came in in '84
708
00:35:49,147 --> 00:35:51,888
to talk about
this incident,
709
00:35:51,932 --> 00:35:53,934
certainly...
710
00:35:55,892 --> 00:35:58,112
I knew the one in '76
took place,
711
00:35:58,156 --> 00:36:00,375
but I didn't
put the two together.
712
00:36:00,419 --> 00:36:02,203
One was a girl.
713
00:36:02,247 --> 00:36:04,379
It was inappropriate
touching.
714
00:36:04,423 --> 00:36:07,121
The other was a boy,
he said,
715
00:36:07,165 --> 00:36:11,081
so I just didn't
hook them up
in my own mind.
716
00:36:11,125 --> 00:36:12,866
[O'Grady]
Monsignor Cain
then suggested
717
00:36:12,909 --> 00:36:14,694
I talk
to the diocesan
attorney.
718
00:36:14,737 --> 00:36:16,348
Oh, it was very
difficult, yeah,
719
00:36:16,391 --> 00:36:19,089
because I was,
you know, kind of--
720
00:36:19,133 --> 00:36:21,353
you know that kind
of unknowing thing?
721
00:36:21,396 --> 00:36:24,094
Um, I could
be arrested.
722
00:36:24,138 --> 00:36:25,922
Where could I
end up, you know?
723
00:36:25,966 --> 00:36:27,228
This could be...
724
00:36:27,272 --> 00:36:29,404
What will my family think?
725
00:36:29,448 --> 00:36:31,319
What will anybody think
726
00:36:31,363 --> 00:36:33,278
when this happens,
you know?
727
00:36:33,321 --> 00:36:36,150
Mahony did call me.
He was out of town
with some meeting.
728
00:36:36,194 --> 00:36:37,717
I can't remember where.
729
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,154
But when he did get back,
he did talk to me.
730
00:36:40,198 --> 00:36:41,242
I remember
saying to him,
731
00:36:41,286 --> 00:36:42,374
I said,
"You know, Bishop,
732
00:36:42,417 --> 00:36:44,376
"this whole thing
has been going on
733
00:36:44,419 --> 00:36:48,206
for the past"--
and I'd been keeping
a record of the days--
734
00:36:48,249 --> 00:36:49,859
"40 days."
735
00:36:49,903 --> 00:36:52,253
It was, like,
actually 40 days.
736
00:36:52,297 --> 00:36:53,733
I said, "It's"--
737
00:36:53,776 --> 00:36:56,866
I said, "It's been a real
desert experience for me,"
738
00:36:56,910 --> 00:36:59,129
using an analogy
from the Scripture
739
00:36:59,173 --> 00:37:01,784
and, you know, the whole
40 years in the desert
740
00:37:01,828 --> 00:37:03,308
type of thing.
741
00:37:03,351 --> 00:37:06,659
I said, "It's been
a real Lenten
experience for me,
742
00:37:06,702 --> 00:37:09,270
I guess," I said,
"even outside of Lent."
743
00:37:09,314 --> 00:37:11,838
And he was very
supportive, you know.
744
00:37:11,881 --> 00:37:13,187
He was
very compassionate.
745
00:37:13,231 --> 00:37:14,536
I felt at the time--
746
00:37:14,580 --> 00:37:16,234
I think
he was merely calling
747
00:37:16,277 --> 00:37:18,627
to, uh, check
how I was doing,
748
00:37:18,671 --> 00:37:20,368
because
he obviously knew
749
00:37:20,412 --> 00:37:22,152
I had been
very stressed out
over the situation,
750
00:37:22,196 --> 00:37:23,980
and I told him that,
you know.
751
00:37:24,024 --> 00:37:25,286
And he got back to me
752
00:37:25,330 --> 00:37:27,549
and said,
"This is where we are:
753
00:37:27,593 --> 00:37:30,378
Uh, "No charge
is being filed,
754
00:37:30,422 --> 00:37:32,206
"but we are
moving you on,
755
00:37:32,250 --> 00:37:36,123
and here's a couple
of other parts
to the package deal."
756
00:37:36,166 --> 00:37:37,690
The bishop,
the attorneys,
757
00:37:37,733 --> 00:37:38,952
and the police
department
758
00:37:38,995 --> 00:37:40,867
decided that maybe
it was best
759
00:37:40,910 --> 00:37:43,130
to move me on
to another situation
760
00:37:43,173 --> 00:37:44,653
out of the particular
county
761
00:37:44,697 --> 00:37:47,177
in which these
charges will be filed,
762
00:37:47,221 --> 00:37:48,788
and then to, uh--
763
00:37:48,831 --> 00:37:52,270
they'll let me take care
of the business there.
764
00:37:52,313 --> 00:37:57,405
And Mahony's people
promised the police
765
00:37:57,449 --> 00:38:00,234
that he would never
have another parish,
766
00:38:00,278 --> 00:38:02,323
that he wouldn't
be around kids,
767
00:38:02,367 --> 00:38:03,977
and they'd
take care of it.
768
00:38:04,020 --> 00:38:09,287
In the Vatican
Ecclesiastical system,
769
00:38:09,330 --> 00:38:11,419
there's this term
that's used.
770
00:38:11,463 --> 00:38:12,986
It's called bella figura.
771
00:38:13,029 --> 00:38:14,292
It's an Italian word
772
00:38:14,335 --> 00:38:17,643
which means good impression,
good image.
773
00:38:17,686 --> 00:38:22,169
One of the aspects,
one of the--the factors
774
00:38:22,212 --> 00:38:24,476
in a man being successful
in the Church
775
00:38:24,519 --> 00:38:26,478
is that he create
a good image,
776
00:38:26,521 --> 00:38:29,394
and that's what Roger was
very much concerned about,
777
00:38:29,437 --> 00:38:31,221
that there be this image
778
00:38:31,265 --> 00:38:34,616
of a very upright, loyal,
orthodox bishop,
779
00:38:34,660 --> 00:38:37,227
soon to become Archbishop
hopefully,
780
00:38:37,271 --> 00:38:39,447
because he would be the only
choice for the pope
781
00:38:39,491 --> 00:38:41,319
to be the Archbishop
of Los Angeles.
782
00:38:41,362 --> 00:38:43,886
And the thing
he had to do, then,
783
00:38:43,930 --> 00:38:46,324
was to take O'Grady,
784
00:38:46,367 --> 00:38:48,369
to avoid scandal,
785
00:38:48,413 --> 00:38:52,721
and any--any scrutiny
on him in particular,
786
00:38:52,765 --> 00:38:56,421
uh, was to move him
to an outlying parish
787
00:38:56,464 --> 00:39:00,860
far away from where
the police would have
jurisdiction,
788
00:39:00,903 --> 00:39:03,384
which was in Stockton
at the time,
789
00:39:03,428 --> 00:39:05,430
and move him out
to San Andreas--
790
00:39:05,473 --> 00:39:07,257
St. Andrew's in San Andreas--
791
00:39:07,301 --> 00:39:09,259
way out there
in the hinterland,
792
00:39:09,303 --> 00:39:10,478
and put him out there
793
00:39:10,522 --> 00:39:13,263
in a very quiet little bucolic setting,
794
00:39:13,307 --> 00:39:16,397
where there was no other supervisor, just O'Grady,
795
00:39:16,441 --> 00:39:18,181
and nobody would know,
796
00:39:18,225 --> 00:39:20,227
and the police wouldn't know,
797
00:39:20,270 --> 00:39:21,794
the public wouldn't know,
798
00:39:21,837 --> 00:39:24,710
the parishioners and the victims over there wouldn't know,
799
00:39:24,753 --> 00:39:26,320
and Rome wouldn't know.
800
00:39:26,364 --> 00:39:28,670
I'd taken the depositions
801
00:39:28,714 --> 00:39:32,326
of cardinals,
archbishops, and bishops
across this country
802
00:39:32,370 --> 00:39:34,372
for 23 years,
803
00:39:34,415 --> 00:39:39,420
and what I've encountered
is deception, perjury,
804
00:39:39,464 --> 00:39:40,856
denial, and deceit
805
00:39:40,900 --> 00:39:43,293
at the highest levels
of the Catholic Church.
806
00:39:43,337 --> 00:39:46,340
Somebody has represented
to the police,
807
00:39:46,384 --> 00:39:49,387
in the middle of their
active investigation,
808
00:39:49,430 --> 00:39:52,433
that they are going
to transfer O'Grady
out of the parish--
809
00:39:52,477 --> 00:39:53,608
Mm-hmm.
810
00:39:53,652 --> 00:39:56,655
That he will be working
only with adults
811
00:39:56,698 --> 00:39:58,134
and away from children,
812
00:39:58,178 --> 00:40:00,354
and Monsignor Cain
has denied
813
00:40:00,398 --> 00:40:02,312
that he was possessed
of that knowledge.
814
00:40:02,356 --> 00:40:03,313
Mm-hmm.
815
00:40:03,357 --> 00:40:04,314
Under oath.
816
00:40:04,358 --> 00:40:05,533
Uh-huh.
817
00:40:05,577 --> 00:40:08,449
You're the captain
of the ship,
818
00:40:08,493 --> 00:40:09,450
the bishop
if the diocese,
819
00:40:09,494 --> 00:40:11,321
the ordinary in charge.
820
00:40:11,365 --> 00:40:15,325
Um, who else, if you weren't
possessed of this knowledge
821
00:40:15,369 --> 00:40:19,112
and Monsignor Cain wasn't
possessed of this knowledge,
822
00:40:19,155 --> 00:40:21,114
do you think
could have been,
823
00:40:21,157 --> 00:40:23,464
knowing the way
the diocese works
824
00:40:23,508 --> 00:40:26,162
or at least worked in 1984?
825
00:40:26,206 --> 00:40:29,731
Uh, I--I--I just have
no idea of knowing.
826
00:40:29,775 --> 00:40:30,993
I don't know.
827
00:40:31,037 --> 00:40:33,082
I know
that Monsignor Cain
828
00:40:33,126 --> 00:40:37,217
knew that last sentence
existed,
829
00:40:37,260 --> 00:40:39,349
he certainly would
have said something.
830
00:40:39,393 --> 00:40:41,830
He would not have
just let us go ahead
831
00:40:41,874 --> 00:40:43,702
and move him
to San Andreas.
832
00:40:43,745 --> 00:40:45,138
I know that.
833
00:40:45,181 --> 00:40:46,574
So I don't know who--
834
00:40:46,618 --> 00:40:49,447
When they say
"This unit was advised,"
835
00:40:49,490 --> 00:40:53,233
uh...it's--I don't know
who they're referring to.
836
00:40:53,276 --> 00:40:54,495
I have no idea.
837
00:41:16,909 --> 00:41:18,388
To quote the cardinal's
appointment letter,
838
00:41:18,432 --> 00:41:19,912
he put him in "full care
839
00:41:19,955 --> 00:41:22,610
of the souls of that parish
in California."
840
00:41:22,654 --> 00:41:25,134
[O'Grady] This way, it would have been the first time
841
00:41:25,178 --> 00:41:27,354
that I had the total responsibility for a parish.
842
00:41:27,397 --> 00:41:29,487
Up to that time, I was an associate.
843
00:41:29,530 --> 00:41:33,534
It was again working out in a nice, nice way for him
844
00:41:33,578 --> 00:41:38,408
that another situation had been smoothly handled.
845
00:41:38,452 --> 00:41:39,671
[Jeff Anderson]
Do you remember,
846
00:41:39,714 --> 00:41:43,457
uh, receiving this letter
from Father O'Grady?
847
00:41:43,501 --> 00:41:45,546
I don't remember it,
but I recall--
848
00:41:45,590 --> 00:41:47,026
You know,
you show it to me.
849
00:41:47,069 --> 00:41:48,506
I presume I received it.
850
00:41:48,549 --> 00:41:50,333
Okay.
Next sentence states,
851
00:41:50,377 --> 00:41:52,422
"I would like
to write to you
852
00:41:52,466 --> 00:41:54,250
"as one
of the first persons
853
00:41:54,294 --> 00:41:57,993
to whom I owe a great
deal of gratitude."
854
00:41:58,037 --> 00:41:59,604
Period.
855
00:41:59,647 --> 00:42:01,475
"I sincerely thank you
856
00:42:01,519 --> 00:42:03,564
"for all that you
have done for me
857
00:42:03,608 --> 00:42:06,219
in the past few months."
858
00:42:06,262 --> 00:42:10,484
Uh, what did you think
he was referring to there
859
00:42:10,528 --> 00:42:13,226
when he
made that statement?
860
00:42:13,269 --> 00:42:15,402
Uh, nothing in particular.
861
00:42:15,445 --> 00:42:18,536
I thought this was
a overly effusive letter.
862
00:42:18,579 --> 00:42:20,581
I didn't really have
that much relations--
863
00:42:20,625 --> 00:42:22,235
personal relationship
with him.
864
00:42:22,278 --> 00:42:25,238
He was not a priest
that I would golf with
865
00:42:25,281 --> 00:42:26,935
or have dinner with
or anything else,
866
00:42:26,979 --> 00:42:29,503
so he was, I think,
867
00:42:29,547 --> 00:42:32,288
quite flowery
and effusive, basically.
868
00:42:32,332 --> 00:42:33,638
I honestly don't know.
869
00:42:33,681 --> 00:42:35,204
As I say, when I first--
870
00:42:35,248 --> 00:42:36,597
when I saw this again,
871
00:42:36,641 --> 00:42:38,599
and I suspect
the time when I got it,
872
00:42:38,643 --> 00:42:42,342
it's just an overly
effusive letter
873
00:42:42,385 --> 00:42:44,474
that, uh...
874
00:42:44,518 --> 00:42:46,868
Next paragraph states,
quote,
875
00:42:46,912 --> 00:42:49,610
"I am particularly
grateful to you
876
00:42:49,654 --> 00:42:53,527
for your sensitivity to me
and my needs at this time."
877
00:42:53,571 --> 00:42:56,269
What did you think
he referred to there?
878
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,054
Uh, I don't remember.
879
00:42:59,098 --> 00:43:00,621
Really, as I say, I--
880
00:43:00,665 --> 00:43:02,405
I just found
the whole letter
881
00:43:02,449 --> 00:43:04,756
terribly, uh, overstated,
882
00:43:04,799 --> 00:43:06,627
and I imagine at the time
883
00:43:06,671 --> 00:43:10,631
I read it cursorily
and filed it, uh, after--
884
00:43:10,675 --> 00:43:11,632
It probably
would have then--
885
00:43:11,676 --> 00:43:13,460
I didn't answer it
for some time.
886
00:43:13,503 --> 00:43:15,723
I--I didn't feel
it was, uh...
887
00:43:15,767 --> 00:43:18,334
it was important or...
888
00:43:18,378 --> 00:43:20,032
I--I have no idea.
889
00:43:20,075 --> 00:43:23,339
At this point, uh,
looking back at this
12 years ago,
890
00:43:23,383 --> 00:43:24,645
I can't remember
what I thought
891
00:43:24,689 --> 00:43:25,907
when I read this letter.
892
00:43:25,951 --> 00:43:28,127
When I read this,
I was just very puzzled.
893
00:43:28,170 --> 00:43:30,564
I couldn't imagine
what he was referring to.
894
00:43:30,608 --> 00:43:32,000
I--I--I just didn't--
895
00:43:32,044 --> 00:43:34,437
I personally didn't pay
that much attention to it.
896
00:43:34,481 --> 00:43:35,700
You'll notice
I didn't answer it
897
00:43:35,743 --> 00:43:37,745
till almost
three weeks later.
898
00:43:58,897 --> 00:44:00,681
What Cardinal Mahony
did is,
899
00:44:00,725 --> 00:44:02,161
he picked his own career,
900
00:44:02,204 --> 00:44:06,774
and he picked power
and glory
901
00:44:06,818 --> 00:44:07,993
over the children.
902
00:44:08,036 --> 00:44:09,603
It's like the scene
in the Gospel
903
00:44:09,647 --> 00:44:12,171
where it says
that Satan took Christ
904
00:44:12,214 --> 00:44:14,608
to the, uh,
top of a mountain,
905
00:44:14,652 --> 00:44:16,566
and showed Him
all the cities in the world
906
00:44:16,610 --> 00:44:18,394
and all the glory
over the world,
907
00:44:18,438 --> 00:44:19,961
and said,
"This all can be yours
908
00:44:20,005 --> 00:44:21,876
if you'll just bow down
and worship me."
909
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:23,704
I think that's what
Cardinal Mahony did.
910
00:44:23,748 --> 00:44:26,141
It was the only thing
he could do
911
00:44:26,185 --> 00:44:27,708
to keep his status
912
00:44:27,752 --> 00:44:31,712
and ultimately be exalted
to Cardinal as he was,
913
00:44:31,756 --> 00:44:35,455
uh, not two years later.

917
00:44:52,690 --> 00:44:55,388
you go through a series of classes

with the priest that, uh,
that you're dealing with.
919
00:44:58,130 --> 00:45:01,350
In our case,
it was Oliver O'Grady.
920
00:45:01,394 --> 00:45:02,961
Uh, those classes--
921
00:45:03,004 --> 00:45:04,702
From what I've heard now,
922
00:45:04,745 --> 00:45:08,096
run between six
and seven weeks,
923
00:45:08,140 --> 00:45:10,969
or six or seven sessions.
924
00:45:11,012 --> 00:45:14,102
Uh, my wife and I
went in for our classes.

00:45:14,146 --> 00:45:17,540
We met with the p--
with O'Grady one time.
926
00:45:17,584 --> 00:45:20,195
Uh, he found out that I was
in law enforcement,
927
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,676

that we did not need

with Oliver O'Grady
presiding at our wedding.
932

for one of the churches that encompassed half the county,
934
00:45:40,868 --> 00:45:44,829
uh, so he played a major role
935
00:45:44,872 --> 00:45:46,134
in a lot of people's lives,
936
00:45:46,178 --> 00:45:48,658
uh, a lot of families in Calaveras County.

[Manly] He's admitted
938
00:45:50,269 --> 00:45:52,793
that he spent as much time grooming victims
939
00:45:52,837 --> 00:45:54,752
as he did being a priest,
940
00:45:54,795 --> 00:45:57,232
and he was a priest for over 30 years,
941
00:45:57,276 --> 00:46:00,061
spending every waking hour
942
00:46:00,105 --> 00:46:02,847
planning abuse, executing abuse,
943
00:46:02,890 --> 00:46:04,762
thinking about abuse.
944
00:46:04,805 --> 00:46:08,678
So 365 days a year times 30.
945
00:46:08,722 --> 00:46:10,419
He has so many victims,
946
00:46:10,463 --> 00:46:12,204
I don't think he can keep track,
947
00:46:12,247 --> 00:46:14,423
and I think it's in the hundreds.
948
00:46:17,862 --> 00:46:20,734
How young
are the molested kids?
949
00:46:20,778 --> 00:46:22,736
One's what,
3 months, 9 months?
950
00:46:22,780 --> 00:46:24,782
That was
his youngest victim.
951
00:46:24,825 --> 00:46:25,783
Right.
952
00:46:25,826 --> 00:46:26,784
You know, 9 months.
953
00:46:26,827 --> 00:46:28,394
9 months.
954
00:46:28,437 --> 00:46:30,178
To abuse an infant,
955
00:46:30,222 --> 00:46:31,440
you really--
956
00:46:31,484 --> 00:46:33,355
Part of what people
have to do
957
00:46:33,399 --> 00:46:34,661
when they're
talking about this--
958
00:46:34,704 --> 00:46:35,836
and it's so hard,
959
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:37,446
and no one
wants to do it--
960
00:46:37,490 --> 00:46:39,971
is to really try
to walk through
961
00:46:40,014 --> 00:46:44,671
and picture a grown man
962
00:46:44,714 --> 00:46:48,414
inserting--
forcing his penis
963
00:46:48,457 --> 00:46:50,851
into the vagina
of a baby.
964
00:46:50,895 --> 00:46:52,810
Oliver, have you
ever been diagnosed
965
00:46:52,853 --> 00:46:55,464
with a dissociative
disorder?
966
00:46:55,508 --> 00:46:57,902
I'm sure
I fit the category
967
00:46:57,945 --> 00:46:59,294
of a lot of disorders.
968
00:46:59,338 --> 00:47:00,774
Whatever they are,
969
00:47:00,818 --> 00:47:02,776
you name that,
I'll--I'll jump.
970
00:47:02,820 --> 00:47:04,604
I'm not trying
to be flippant here.
971
00:47:04,647 --> 00:47:06,432
And I am. I'm sorry.
972
00:47:06,475 --> 00:47:08,651
That's okay, but what
I'm trying to say is,
973
00:47:08,695 --> 00:47:10,523
has anybody ever told you
974
00:47:10,566 --> 00:47:13,874
you may dissociate
from events?
975
00:47:13,918 --> 00:47:15,615
I'm sure they have.
976
00:47:15,658 --> 00:47:16,616
Okay.
977
00:47:16,659 --> 00:47:17,835
Is it--
978
00:47:17,878 --> 00:47:20,881
I mean, to me,
as a lay person,
979
00:47:20,925 --> 00:47:22,970
when you molest somebody,
980
00:47:23,014 --> 00:47:24,537
it's sort of
black and white:
981
00:47:24,580 --> 00:47:25,843
either you do
or you don't.
982
00:47:25,886 --> 00:47:27,888
What I get from you,
Oliver, is,
983
00:47:27,932 --> 00:47:29,542
in some instances,
984
00:47:29,585 --> 00:47:31,109
you're not sure
if you molested people.
985
00:47:31,152 --> 00:47:32,458
Correct.
986
00:47:32,501 --> 00:47:34,808
Do you think that's
because it didn't happen,
987
00:47:34,852 --> 00:47:36,897
or do you think
that's because,
988
00:47:36,941 --> 00:47:39,334
either to deal
with the trauma yourself,
989
00:47:39,378 --> 00:47:41,859
or to justify it
or deal with guilt,
990
00:47:41,902 --> 00:47:44,339
whatever
the malady you had was,
991
00:47:44,383 --> 00:47:46,211
do you may be
disassociating
992
00:47:46,254 --> 00:47:48,474
from the reality
of what actually occurred?
993
00:47:48,517 --> 00:47:50,824
I think that would
be accurate, yes.
994
00:47:50,868 --> 00:47:52,913
[Mary Frawley-O'Dea]
He's a very dangerous man,
995
00:47:52,957 --> 00:47:59,354
and a--a aggressive,
assaultive person,
996
00:47:59,398 --> 00:48:02,140
uh, who apparently
would do anything
997
00:48:02,183 --> 00:48:03,663
to get to his victims,
998
00:48:03,706 --> 00:48:06,405
including having sex
with their parents.
999
00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:27,643
When I was little, I was
always talking to everybody.
1000
00:48:27,687 --> 00:48:32,257
Uh, and I feel like I had
a lot of...
1001
00:48:32,300 --> 00:48:35,651
more hope in me
than--than, uh, doubt.
1002
00:48:35,695 --> 00:48:38,132
I'm sure you could ask
all my teachers,
1003
00:48:38,176 --> 00:48:40,004
and they'd go, "Yeah.
1004
00:48:40,047 --> 00:48:44,660
Uh, smart guy.
I don't know
what happened to him."
1005
00:48:50,014 --> 00:48:54,322
O'Grady saw an easy mark in us
1006
00:48:54,366 --> 00:48:55,889
because we're brought up--
1007
00:48:55,933 --> 00:48:57,804
I was brought up Catholic,
1008
00:48:57,847 --> 00:49:02,287
so automatically you see
a guy with a...collar on...
1009
00:49:02,330 --> 00:49:04,550
you automatically trust him.
1010
00:49:04,593 --> 00:49:06,769
So he moved right in,
1011
00:49:06,813 --> 00:49:11,426
and, uh, Becky fell
hook, line, and sinker.
1012
00:49:11,470 --> 00:49:14,038
You know, he was the wolf,
1013
00:49:14,081 --> 00:49:15,561
and I was the gatekeeper,
1014
00:49:15,604 --> 00:49:17,911
and I let the wolf
through the gate.
1015
00:49:17,955 --> 00:49:21,132
That's what it's always
felt like to me, you know?
1016
00:49:21,175 --> 00:49:23,134
And to know
that you could be--
1017
00:49:23,177 --> 00:49:25,963
that I could be so wrong.
1018
00:49:26,006 --> 00:49:30,619
I mean, how wrong
could I have been?
1019
00:49:30,663 --> 00:49:33,274
I mean, to be
so horribly wrong...
1020
00:49:35,798 --> 00:49:37,757
was absolutely devastating.
1021
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:41,456
His whole thing, he would
get into the family
1022
00:49:41,500 --> 00:49:44,546
more than just
with the children, you know,
1023
00:49:44,590 --> 00:49:48,637
so my mom had been,
uh, involved with him,
1024
00:49:48,681 --> 00:49:50,900
and I think that was the--
1025
00:49:50,944 --> 00:49:53,686
that was the killer one
there, you know?
1026
00:49:54,992 --> 00:49:57,037
And early on I real--
1027
00:49:57,081 --> 00:50:00,040
I realized early on
that there was
something wrong,
1028
00:50:00,084 --> 00:50:05,045
but my upbringing told me,
nah, that can't happen.
1029
00:50:05,089 --> 00:50:09,267
I talk with a lot of, like,
female survivors,
1030
00:50:09,310 --> 00:50:12,052
and they talk about,
like, little--little games
1031
00:50:12,096 --> 00:50:16,056
to sort of...
segue toward it,
1032
00:50:16,100 --> 00:50:17,927
but with--it wasn't
like that with me.
1033
00:50:17,971 --> 00:50:21,714
He just started in--
started right in:
1034
00:50:21,757 --> 00:50:26,023
grabbing me, touching me,
making me touch him...
1035
00:50:26,066 --> 00:50:29,504
telling me that--why would
my folks have brought me here
1036
00:50:29,548 --> 00:50:31,680
if they didn't think
it was okay?
1037
00:50:31,724 --> 00:50:34,683
Why would they
even have thought that?
1038
00:50:34,727 --> 00:50:36,772
Those are the things
that he said.
1039
00:50:42,822 --> 00:50:48,567
I failed them once,
and it was huge,
1040
00:50:48,610 --> 00:50:51,352
and I'll never do it again.
1041
00:50:51,396 --> 00:50:54,355
No, it will never
happen again.
1042
00:50:54,399 --> 00:50:57,793
I will not ever...
1043
00:50:57,837 --> 00:51:00,144
I will never fail them again.
1044
00:51:00,187 --> 00:51:04,017
I was trimming those bushes,
right there,
1045
00:51:04,061 --> 00:51:06,150
those little bushes,
1046
00:51:06,193 --> 00:51:08,065
the first time it happened.
1047
00:51:08,108 --> 00:51:10,023
I went into the house
to eat lunch,
1048
00:51:10,067 --> 00:51:15,811
and then he just came in
and closed the door
1049
00:51:15,855 --> 00:51:20,033
and he just held me down,
held my head down,
1050
00:51:20,077 --> 00:51:23,167
and he fucking sodomized me
right in there.
1051
00:51:23,210 --> 00:51:26,605
Right there.
1052
00:51:26,648 --> 00:51:29,173
That's not easy to say,
you know.
1053
00:51:29,216 --> 00:51:33,829
Fuck, for years
I never even spoke of it,
1054
00:51:33,873 --> 00:51:37,616
and every time
I'd get close to a girl
1055
00:51:37,659 --> 00:51:42,838
or every time I'd feel like
something was done wrong to me,
1056
00:51:42,882 --> 00:51:45,189
I'd go right there.
1057
00:51:45,232 --> 00:51:47,843
It would just go in
the bin with it.
1058
00:51:47,887 --> 00:51:50,846
That's the kind of--
That's what this shit does.
1059
00:51:50,890 --> 00:51:54,633
It doesn't just hurt you.
1060
00:51:54,676 --> 00:51:57,157
[Mike Walker] In July of 1993 we had a family
1061
00:51:57,201 --> 00:52:00,073
that contacted the Calaveras County Sheriff's Department.
1062
00:52:00,117 --> 00:52:05,426
to report that a priest
in San Andreas
in Calaveras County
1063
00:52:05,470 --> 00:52:07,863
was molesting members
of the family,
1064
00:52:07,907 --> 00:52:11,040
in the family.
specifically two young boys
1065
00:52:11,084 --> 00:52:14,653
So the next day
he called me
1066
00:52:14,696 --> 00:52:16,872
and he said
he was having a problem.
1067
00:52:16,916 --> 00:52:18,439
and he was away
from the parish.
1068
00:52:18,483 --> 00:52:23,052
I knew just talking to him
that there was something wrong.
1069
00:52:23,096 --> 00:52:25,098
Then we told him
we would help him.
1070
00:52:25,142 --> 00:52:27,100
I said,
"If you didn't do
any of these things
1071
00:52:27,144 --> 00:52:29,668
"to children,
you have no problem.
1072
00:52:29,711 --> 00:52:32,671
There's no way anybody
can accuse you of-- "
1073
00:52:32,714 --> 00:52:36,109
Even the word "molestation"
never even entered my mind.
1074
00:52:36,153 --> 00:52:37,676
It was just "touching."
1075
00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:39,112
I said,
"If you didn't touch
these kids
1076
00:52:39,156 --> 00:52:42,898
"in an inappropriate way
or touched them sexually,
1077
00:52:42,942 --> 00:52:44,248
"you don't have anything
to worry about.
1078
00:52:44,291 --> 00:52:45,901
You don't have a record."
1079
00:52:45,945 --> 00:52:49,383
Then he said,
"Well, I had a problem
nine years ago."
1080
00:52:49,427 --> 00:52:51,124
When we started
our investigation,
1081
00:52:51,168 --> 00:52:55,694
we found out that this had not
been the first incident
1082
00:52:55,737 --> 00:52:58,087
that he had been involved in.
1083
00:52:58,131 --> 00:53:01,700
Going back as far
as the mid-seventies
1084
00:53:01,743 --> 00:53:06,531
he had been involved
with molesting children.
1085
00:53:09,142 --> 00:53:12,101
It appeared to us
1086
00:53:12,145 --> 00:53:16,932
that there was a lot
of knowledge about that
1087
00:53:16,976 --> 00:53:18,717
outside of our community
1088
00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:21,633
but none of that information
had reached us.
1089
00:53:21,676 --> 00:53:24,505
At that point
we were supporting him.
1090
00:53:24,549 --> 00:53:26,507
[Bob sniffles]
Yeah.
1091
00:53:26,551 --> 00:53:30,729
Then he was concerned
about his family and stuff.
1092
00:53:30,772 --> 00:53:32,513
So I talked
to his family in Ireland
1093
00:53:32,557 --> 00:53:35,299
and told them
that we would support him
1094
00:53:35,342 --> 00:53:37,170
and make sure he got
represented
1095
00:53:37,214 --> 00:53:38,258
and everything like that.
1096
00:53:38,302 --> 00:53:40,173
[Walker] At that point we obtained
1097
00:53:40,217 --> 00:53:41,740
arrest warrants for Oliver O'Grady
1098
00:53:41,783 --> 00:53:46,179
for multiple counts of lewd and lascivious acts with minors.
1099
00:53:46,223 --> 00:53:50,314
We served search warrants
at the parish
here in San Andreas,
1100
00:53:50,357 --> 00:53:54,318
the rectory here
in San Andreas,
1101
00:53:54,361 --> 00:53:56,755
the diocese in Stockton,
1102
00:53:56,798 --> 00:54:00,193
and in law offices--
Not law offices,
1103
00:54:00,237 --> 00:54:03,762
but the offices
of Cardinal Mahony
in Los Angeles.
1104
00:54:03,805 --> 00:54:05,981
[Maria] Then when he asked for the bail money
1105
00:54:06,025 --> 00:54:07,156
Bob went and got it.
1106
00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:09,202
I went to work
Monday morning--
1107
00:54:09,246 --> 00:54:10,551
And I did.
1108
00:54:10,595 --> 00:54:15,164
And everybody at work
knew who he was.
1109
00:54:15,208 --> 00:54:17,993
They knew he was my friend.
1110
00:54:18,037 --> 00:54:18,994
The newspapers had--
1111
00:54:19,038 --> 00:54:20,561
It was kind of quiet.
1112
00:54:20,605 --> 00:54:22,346
I remember saying,
"What's the matter
with you guys?
1113
00:54:22,389 --> 00:54:26,001
How come you're all
acting this way
this morning?"
1114
00:54:26,045 --> 00:54:28,003
They said,
"Did you read the paper?"
1115
00:54:28,047 --> 00:54:29,788
I said, "No,
I haven't had time to
read the paper yet.
1116
00:54:29,831 --> 00:54:31,746
Yeah.
1117
00:54:31,790 --> 00:54:34,183
It was exploded
all over the front page
of the newspaper.
1118
00:54:34,227 --> 00:54:38,797
I said,
"There's no way Ollie
would touch our kids."
1119
00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:41,234
We didn't suspect. We didn't say anything.
1120
00:54:41,278 --> 00:54:42,366
Just no way.
1121
00:54:42,409 --> 00:54:44,106
Then I called Bob at work
1122
00:54:44,150 --> 00:54:47,371
and told him what I saw
in the paper and everything.
1123
00:54:47,414 --> 00:54:50,591
I said--
And he said the same
thing to me.
1124
00:54:50,635 --> 00:54:51,853
He said, "No way.
1125
00:54:51,897 --> 00:54:55,030
There's no way
he would touch our kids."
1126
00:54:55,074 --> 00:55:01,036
Then it was almost like
the fear of God got in me.
1127
00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:03,038
I told--
He said, "Well,
we have to ask them."
1128
00:55:03,082 --> 00:55:04,388
But then we went--
1129
00:55:04,431 --> 00:55:06,825
I called her and I said,
1130
00:55:06,868 --> 00:55:08,392
"Ann, did you
see the paper?
1131
00:55:08,435 --> 00:55:12,047
Did you read about
Father Ollie in the paper?"
1132
00:55:12,091 --> 00:55:16,617
She said she didn't
watch the news or something.
1133
00:55:16,661 --> 00:55:21,230
I said, "There's all these
allegations against him."
1134
00:55:21,274 --> 00:55:25,234
The boys from--
It was the Howard kids
at that time.
1135
00:55:25,278 --> 00:55:28,063
And, um...
1136
00:55:28,107 --> 00:55:30,065
I was ex--
When I said it to her
1137
00:55:30,109 --> 00:55:33,417
I was expecting a response
like "Who's doing this?"
1138
00:55:33,460 --> 00:55:37,246
And it was nothing.
It was just absolute silence.
1139
00:55:37,290 --> 00:55:39,074
Then I said to her--
I said,
1140
00:55:39,118 --> 00:55:40,728
"Ann, I have to ask you."
1141
00:55:40,772 --> 00:55:43,296
I said, "Did he ever touch you
when you were a little girl?"
1142
00:55:43,340 --> 00:55:45,254
And she--
"I got to go, Mom.
1143
00:55:45,298 --> 00:55:48,083
I got to take care
of the dog."
1144
00:55:48,127 --> 00:55:50,085
I just knew right then.
1145
00:55:50,129 --> 00:55:53,088
I just felt it.
1146
00:55:53,132 --> 00:55:54,220
She still wouldn't answer.
1147
00:55:54,263 --> 00:55:56,178
I said, "Bob,
you have to call her."
1148
00:55:56,222 --> 00:55:59,660
I knew she wouldn't
lie to Bob.
1149
00:55:59,704 --> 00:56:00,879
So I asked her.
1150
00:56:00,922 --> 00:56:02,271
She called him.
1151
00:56:02,315 --> 00:56:05,318
You called her.
1152
00:56:05,362 --> 00:56:09,888
I asked her
if he had molested you.
1153
00:56:09,931 --> 00:56:11,324
You said,
"Did he ever touch you?"
1154
00:56:11,368 --> 00:56:13,892
Yeah.
"Did he ever touch-- "
1155
00:56:13,935 --> 00:56:16,895
And she said yes.
1156
00:56:16,938 --> 00:56:21,116
And the whole world
collapsed.
1157
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:22,422
I could hear him crying.
1158
00:56:22,466 --> 00:56:24,337
I could hear Ann crying
on the other side--
1159
00:56:24,381 --> 00:56:28,123
I gave her back the phone,
and...
1160
00:56:28,167 --> 00:56:30,909
She came over
1161
00:56:30,952 --> 00:56:32,563
and Case DeGroot
came over.
1162
00:56:32,606 --> 00:56:37,350
At that point,
it destroyed our lives.
1163
00:56:37,394 --> 00:56:38,699
From that day on
it just--
1164
00:56:38,743 --> 00:56:40,353
Destroyed our family.
1165
00:56:40,397 --> 00:56:41,441
Everything.
1166
00:56:41,485 --> 00:56:44,357
Then it's like
you have flashbacks.
1167
00:56:44,401 --> 00:56:45,314
Why didn't I see this?
1168
00:56:45,358 --> 00:56:46,707
Why didn't I see that?
1169
00:56:46,751 --> 00:56:47,708
Right.
1170
00:56:47,752 --> 00:56:49,710
It was like...
1171
00:56:49,754 --> 00:56:50,929
It was terrible.
1172
00:56:50,972 --> 00:56:53,366
I kind of handed Ann
over to this bastard
1173
00:56:53,410 --> 00:56:56,717
on a silver platter,
just about.
1174
00:56:56,761 --> 00:56:57,936
How did he do it?
1175
00:56:57,979 --> 00:56:59,111
He just destroyed--
1176
00:56:59,154 --> 00:57:01,374
How did we get fooled
by him so much?
1177
00:57:01,418 --> 00:57:03,463
I used to go to work
and he'd be here
1178
00:57:03,507 --> 00:57:07,380
saying his morning prayers.
1179
00:57:07,424 --> 00:57:08,729
Had the Bible in his hand
1180
00:57:08,773 --> 00:57:10,383
and he's saying
morning prayers.
1181
00:57:10,427 --> 00:57:12,733
I said, "Good morning, Ollie."
1182
00:57:12,777 --> 00:57:15,736
Then he'd be in there
at nighttime molesting Ann.
1183
00:57:15,780 --> 00:57:19,348
And during the night
he's molesting my daughter.
1184
00:57:19,392 --> 00:57:20,349
Raping her!
1185
00:57:20,393 --> 00:57:23,527
Not molesting her!
Raping her!
1186
00:57:23,570 --> 00:57:25,746
At five years old!
1187
00:57:25,790 --> 00:57:28,532
God's sakes!
1188
00:57:28,575 --> 00:57:32,753
How could that happen?
1189
00:57:32,797 --> 00:57:34,407
But that's what he did.
1190
00:57:43,242 --> 00:57:45,766
It's futile to ask
"How can this be?
1191
00:57:45,810 --> 00:57:47,376
Why does this happen?"
1192
00:57:47,420 --> 00:57:49,553
The system,
the monarchical,
1193
00:57:49,596 --> 00:57:52,556
hierarchical
governmental system
1194
00:57:52,599 --> 00:57:55,384
that the people in charge
of the Roman Catholic Church
1195
00:57:55,428 --> 00:58:01,434
from the Pope on down
firmly believe was willed
by almighty God
1196
00:58:01,478 --> 00:58:05,046
is the reason why
Roger Mahony
1197
00:58:05,090 --> 00:58:06,221
is believed to be
1198
00:58:06,265 --> 00:58:09,442
substantially
more important and better
1199
00:58:09,486 --> 00:58:13,751
than the children
who were ravished by
Oliver O'Grady.
1200
00:58:13,794 --> 00:58:17,406
My father won't
walk me down the aisle
1201
00:58:17,450 --> 00:58:20,235
because he can't
step in the church.
1202
00:58:20,279 --> 00:58:22,411
He's taken my wedding
away from me,
1203
00:58:22,455 --> 00:58:24,239
everything in the future.
1204
00:58:24,283 --> 00:58:29,418
I constantly am battling
to regain my life back.
1205
00:58:29,462 --> 00:58:31,246
Constantly.
1206
00:58:31,290 --> 00:58:34,249
I have never
conceived a child.
1207
00:58:34,293 --> 00:58:36,251
I'm not married.
1208
00:58:36,295 --> 00:58:39,428
I'm 40 years old almost.
1209
00:58:39,472 --> 00:58:40,821
I'm 39.
1210
00:58:40,865 --> 00:58:46,479
I'm approaching 40
and it's still not over.
1211
00:58:46,523 --> 00:58:48,437
When did it stop?
When she was 13?
1212
00:58:48,481 --> 00:58:50,439
12.
12, okay.
1213
00:58:50,483 --> 00:58:56,097
I asked her,
"Why didn't you tell us
earlier? Why?"
1214
00:58:57,664 --> 00:59:01,842
And her answer was to me
1215
00:59:01,886 --> 00:59:07,500
that I used to say
that anybody who tried
to hurt you,
1216
00:59:07,544 --> 00:59:10,285
I would kill him!
1217
00:59:10,329 --> 00:59:11,504
And...
1218
00:59:12,679 --> 00:59:15,421
I shouldn't have made
that statement.
1219
00:59:15,464 --> 00:59:16,509
She told me that--
1220
00:59:16,553 --> 00:59:19,294
She wouldn't say anything!
1221
00:59:19,338 --> 00:59:21,296
She asked a little girl
what would happen
1222
00:59:21,340 --> 00:59:23,647
if your Dad killed somebody,
1223
00:59:23,690 --> 00:59:25,866
and they said
that he would go
to jail forever and ever
1224
00:59:25,910 --> 00:59:27,868
and never come out.
1225
00:59:27,912 --> 00:59:31,655
She said that day I decided
I could never tell anybody
1226
00:59:31,698 --> 00:59:34,745
because she said,
"I knew Dad would kill him."
1227
00:59:34,788 --> 00:59:39,663
It was her love for me
that kept her from telling me.
1228
00:59:39,706 --> 00:59:43,667
And my love for her--
1229
00:59:43,710 --> 00:59:47,496
I feel guilty about that,
1230
00:59:47,540 --> 00:59:51,500
but I feel betrayed
by the Church.
1231
00:59:51,544 --> 00:59:56,680
The Church had betrayed me
and my family!
1232
00:59:56,723 --> 00:59:59,552
They destroyed it.
1233
00:59:59,596 --> 01:00:02,729
By golly,
I'm not going to let it
destroy me now.
1234
01:00:03,730 --> 01:00:06,907
My name is Tom Doyle.
1235
01:00:06,951 --> 01:00:11,129
I've been a Catholic priest
for 35 years.
1236
01:00:11,172 --> 01:00:13,697
I've been fired
from two major positions
1237
01:00:13,740 --> 01:00:19,528
and sidetracked
from two careers
as a priest in the Church
1238
01:00:19,572 --> 01:00:24,577
because I've openly
advocated for the victims
1239
01:00:24,621 --> 01:00:27,711
of clergy sexual abuse,
1240
01:00:27,754 --> 01:00:28,929
and according to some,
1241
01:00:28,973 --> 01:00:32,585
been much too critical
and much too vocal
1242
01:00:32,629 --> 01:00:35,544
about the source
of the cover-up:
1243
01:00:35,588 --> 01:00:39,723
the manipulation,
the dishonesty
1244
01:00:39,766 --> 01:00:41,028
that comes from the top.
1245
01:00:41,072 --> 01:00:43,727
When we were serving
the search warrants
1246
01:00:43,770 --> 01:00:46,555
the members of the Church
that were responsible
1247
01:00:46,599 --> 01:00:51,952
for keeping those records
threw up a lot of roadblocks
1248
01:00:51,996 --> 01:00:54,563
in having to contact
their attorneys
1249
01:00:54,607 --> 01:00:57,610
to find out what
they had to give to us.
1250
01:00:57,654 --> 01:00:59,177
[Man]
Your duties as chancellor
1251
01:00:59,220 --> 01:01:02,746
encompass the entire diocese,
correct?
1252
01:01:02,789 --> 01:01:03,790
Yes.
1253
01:01:03,834 --> 01:01:05,574
If a child had been
sexually abused
1254
01:01:05,618 --> 01:01:07,228
during those years,
1255
01:01:07,272 --> 01:01:08,969
is it fair to say
that that would have come
to your attention
1256
01:01:09,013 --> 01:01:12,756
as Chancellor/Vicar General/
Auxiliary Bishop?
1257
01:01:12,799 --> 01:01:15,193
[Man 2]
Calls for speculation.
1258
01:01:15,236 --> 01:01:16,760
During which years?
1259
01:01:16,803 --> 01:01:19,588
[Man]
When you were an officer
of the Diocese of Fresno
1260
01:01:19,632 --> 01:01:20,981
in any of those three offices.
1261
01:01:21,025 --> 01:01:25,769
[Man 2]
Object to the term
"officer of the diocese."
1262
01:01:25,812 --> 01:01:26,813
[Man]
Go ahead.
1263
01:01:30,251 --> 01:01:33,602
I imagine I would have
become aware of that
during that time.
1264
01:01:33,646 --> 01:01:38,607
Your testimony is that
no such event occurred?
1265
01:01:38,651 --> 01:01:41,654
No, my testimony is
that I cannot recall
1266
01:01:41,698 --> 01:01:43,656
something like that
occurring during that time.
1267
01:01:43,700 --> 01:01:47,442
Do you think if a child
were raped during
your tenure at Fresno
1268
01:01:47,486 --> 01:01:49,793
that that would be something
that you would forget?
1269
01:01:49,836 --> 01:01:52,621
[Man 2]
Object. Argumentative.
1270
01:01:52,665 --> 01:01:55,668
Harassing.
Instruct the witness
not to answer.
1271
01:01:55,712 --> 01:01:57,583
[Man]
Do you think if a child
molestation allegation
1272
01:01:57,626 --> 01:02:01,021
had been leveled,
your Eminence,
1273
01:02:01,065 --> 01:02:04,242
while you were there
acting as an official
of the diocese
1274
01:02:04,285 --> 01:02:05,460
and it came
to your attention,
1275
01:02:05,504 --> 01:02:08,028
that would be something
you would forget?
1276
01:02:08,072 --> 01:02:09,638
[Man 2]
I'm going to object.
1277
01:02:09,682 --> 01:02:14,252
Harassing.
Argumentative.
1278
01:02:14,295 --> 01:02:15,819
Asked and answered.
1279
01:02:15,862 --> 01:02:17,821
Instruct the witness
not to answer.
1280
01:02:17,864 --> 01:02:19,474
[Man]
He hasn't answered
that question.
1281
01:02:19,518 --> 01:02:21,738
[Man 2]
Yes, he has.
1282
01:02:21,781 --> 01:02:24,262
[Man]
When the diocese was
relating to the police
1283
01:02:24,305 --> 01:02:25,829
and they
didn't disclose the fact
1284
01:02:25,872 --> 01:02:28,701
that O'Grady had been
previously accused,
1285
01:02:28,745 --> 01:02:32,705
do you think they were telling
the whole truth?
1286
01:02:32,749 --> 01:02:34,054
Repeat that please.
1287
01:02:34,098 --> 01:02:37,841
In '84, when the diocese
was talking to the police,
1288
01:02:37,884 --> 01:02:39,103
okay.
1289
01:02:39,146 --> 01:02:41,714
The diocese did not talk
to the police in '84.
1290
01:02:41,758 --> 01:02:43,847
The diocese attorney did.
1291
01:02:43,890 --> 01:02:45,500
I didn't know that
at the time.
1292
01:02:45,544 --> 01:02:47,285
Okay.
1293
01:02:47,328 --> 01:02:49,853
Do you think that
somebody should have told
the cops, Father--
1294
01:02:49,896 --> 01:02:51,680
Or Monsignor, forgive me--
1295
01:02:51,724 --> 01:02:54,727
that O'Grady had been
previously accused?
1296
01:02:59,514 --> 01:03:01,299
It was in the hands
of our attorney.
1297
01:03:01,342 --> 01:03:03,736
Now, hat should be done
or what should not be done
1298
01:03:03,780 --> 01:03:05,738
would be his decision.
1299
01:03:09,133 --> 01:03:12,876
So basically you left it
to your lawyer to decide
1300
01:03:12,919 --> 01:03:15,313
whether or not
to tell the truth.
1301
01:03:15,356 --> 01:03:20,318
We left it to our lawyer
to work in the investigation.
1302
01:03:20,361 --> 01:03:23,756
At that time,
investigationolice
1303
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:25,062
that we had,
1304
01:03:25,105 --> 01:03:27,760
there was one guy
who could speak the truth
1305
01:03:27,804 --> 01:03:30,545
and blow the whistle
on Roger Mahony
1306
01:03:30,589 --> 01:03:32,765
having known about
Olive O'Grady for years,
1307
01:03:32,809 --> 01:03:34,723
and that was Oliver O'Grady.
1308
01:03:34,767 --> 01:03:39,119
The night before
he was scheduled to
testify in that trial
1309
01:03:39,163 --> 01:03:44,559
the attorneys for
Roger Mahony went to
his jail cell,
1310
01:03:44,603 --> 01:03:47,780
cut a deal with him,
1311
01:03:47,824 --> 01:03:49,564
a very dark deal that said,
1312
01:03:49,608 --> 01:03:52,785
"Oliver, you take
the contempt citation
1313
01:03:52,829 --> 01:03:56,571
"and refuse to testify
even though you've
been ordered to,
1314
01:03:56,615 --> 01:03:57,790
and we'll take care of you."
1315
01:03:57,834 --> 01:03:58,791
And they did.
1316
01:03:58,835 --> 01:04:00,749
Does the diocese of Stockton
1317
01:04:00,793 --> 01:04:03,143
or any of its representatives
1318
01:04:03,187 --> 01:04:06,799
provide for
any economic support
for you right now?
1319
01:04:09,628 --> 01:04:11,586
Not at the moment.
1320
01:04:11,630 --> 01:04:12,979
Have they in the past?
1321
01:04:15,634 --> 01:04:18,593
Not since I left
the priesthood.
1322
01:04:18,637 --> 01:04:21,379
They didn't buy you
an annuity?
1323
01:04:21,422 --> 01:04:22,946
I believe they did.
1324
01:04:22,989 --> 01:04:24,773
Do you get a check
from that annuity?
1325
01:04:24,817 --> 01:04:27,385
No, that will not
come into effect
1326
01:04:27,428 --> 01:04:30,823
until I'm 65.
1327
01:04:30,867 --> 01:04:32,781
Who holds that annuity?
1328
01:04:32,825 --> 01:04:36,176
I believe
the diocese holds it.
1329
01:04:36,220 --> 01:04:37,612
Are you at all
concerned, Oliver,
1330
01:04:37,656 --> 01:04:39,963
that if you give testimony
that hurts the diocese
1331
01:04:40,006 --> 01:04:44,619
that they might revoke that?
1332
01:04:44,663 --> 01:04:46,839
I have a lot of concerns
about a lot of things,
1333
01:04:46,883 --> 01:04:49,973
and I guess that would
be one of them.
1334
01:04:50,016 --> 01:04:52,627
My parents don't get
a pension from the Church.
1335
01:04:52,671 --> 01:04:55,804
They lost their whole
financial stability from this.
1336
01:04:55,848 --> 01:04:56,805
[Bob]
Yeah.
1337
01:04:56,849 --> 01:04:59,808
They will never ever
be the same.
1338
01:04:59,852 --> 01:05:01,810
My mother is forced
into retirement.
1339
01:05:01,854 --> 01:05:05,423
My dad has to quit his job
to take care of her.
1340
01:05:05,466 --> 01:05:07,642
Because of what?
1341
01:05:07,686 --> 01:05:08,948
Mm-hmm.
1342
01:05:08,992 --> 01:05:12,647
Because of some jackass
that was running around
1343
01:05:12,691 --> 01:05:14,432
juggling 50 kids at a time,
1344
01:05:14,475 --> 01:05:17,000
and some raping mothers.
1345
01:05:17,043 --> 01:05:21,004
He abused my parents, too.
1346
01:05:21,047 --> 01:05:23,658
The Church abused
my parents, too.
1347
01:05:23,702 --> 01:05:27,010
They took our tithes,
they took our tuition money,
1348
01:05:27,053 --> 01:05:30,448
and they haven't returned
any of that back to my family.
1349
01:05:30,491 --> 01:05:32,667
They deserve all of that back.
1350
01:05:32,711 --> 01:05:33,842
There is no excuse
1351
01:05:33,886 --> 01:05:36,671
that you pay to send
your kid to school
1352
01:05:36,715 --> 01:05:39,022
to get raped, you know,
1353
01:05:39,065 --> 01:05:41,024
and to be molested
in the basement
1354
01:05:41,067 --> 01:05:43,852
where you're supposed
to be getting an education
1355
01:05:43,896 --> 01:05:45,942
or being called
in his office
1356
01:05:45,985 --> 01:05:51,077
where he has full reign
to do whatever he wants to you
and send you back to class.
1357
01:05:53,297 --> 01:05:54,733
[Anderson] This case,
1358
01:05:54,776 --> 01:05:57,257
from the start to finish, was less than two months.
1359
01:05:57,301 --> 01:06:01,261
It was strange the speed in which that operated.
1360
01:06:01,305 --> 01:06:05,048
We just felt that there was a lot of things that were left hanging
1361
01:06:05,091 --> 01:06:07,702
in this investigation,
1362
01:06:07,746 --> 01:06:12,272
but because of the speed with which it went
1363
01:06:12,316 --> 01:06:15,884
we just weren't able to do our jobs as effectively as we could have.
1364
01:06:15,928 --> 01:06:20,498
But they were afraid
of civil discoveryowers
1365
01:06:20,541 --> 01:06:22,717
the civil attorneys
were going to find out
1366
01:06:22,761 --> 01:06:27,070
that the Church knew
prior to Oliver's ordination
1367
01:06:27,113 --> 01:06:29,376
that he probably offended.
1368
01:06:56,012 --> 01:07:00,103
He got to serve seven years,
1369
01:07:00,146 --> 01:07:02,757
and I testified in the case
that convicted him,
1370
01:07:02,801 --> 01:07:07,110
and he's over there
living the life of Reilly.
1371
01:07:07,153 --> 01:07:10,983
He's having tea
and living like
a normal person.
1372
01:07:11,027 --> 01:07:14,421
He doesn't even have to report
like people here do.
1373
01:07:25,041 --> 01:07:28,957
[Doyle] Seeing Oliver walk around loose with kidsis one thing,
1374
01:07:29,001 --> 01:07:32,004
but knowing that
he was set up to do that
1375
01:07:32,048 --> 01:07:33,353
and he's allowed to do that
1376
01:07:33,397 --> 01:07:35,964
and he's going to be paid
to do that by the Church
1377
01:07:36,008 --> 01:07:37,140
makes me furious.
1378
01:07:37,183 --> 01:07:39,794
I have to agree
with Frank Keating.
1379
01:07:39,838 --> 01:07:41,579
He was the former governor
of Oklahoma.
1380
01:07:41,622 --> 01:07:45,365
He compared this diocese and the Cardinal
1381
01:07:45,409 --> 01:07:47,019
to La Cosa Nostra.
1382
01:07:47,063 --> 01:07:49,804
[Man] In 2002, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops
1383
01:07:49,848 --> 01:07:52,590
asked former Oklahoma governor Frank Keating
1384
01:07:52,633 --> 01:07:54,374
to head a national review board
1385
01:07:54,418 --> 01:07:56,159
to scrutinize the Catholic Church,
1386
01:07:56,202 --> 01:07:57,812
hold bishops accountable,
1387
01:07:57,856 --> 01:08:00,163
and guide the Church in how to prevent, report,
1388
01:08:00,206 --> 01:08:02,600
and disclose sexual abuse.
1389
01:08:02,643 --> 01:08:05,168
Keating resigned after making critical comments
1390
01:08:05,211 --> 01:08:09,607
about how some diocese, including Los Angeles,
1391
01:08:09,650 --> 01:08:13,176
were and continue to be less than open with the public
1392
01:08:13,219 --> 01:08:15,917
and less than honest with themselves.
1393
01:08:15,961 --> 01:08:20,052
If you take the position
that you won't get anything
out of me without a subpoena,
1394
01:08:20,096 --> 01:08:22,185
the suggestion is
you have something to hide.
1395
01:08:22,228 --> 01:08:25,405
For a faith institution,
that's a terrible suggestion.
1396
01:08:25,449 --> 01:08:30,018
In Los Angeles,
the documentation,oduce
1397
01:08:30,062 --> 01:08:31,324
the records--
1398
01:08:31,368 --> 01:08:33,413
Where you find the truth,
or most of the truth--
1399
01:08:33,457 --> 01:08:37,200
by the District Attorney
of Los Angeles County,
1400
01:08:37,243 --> 01:08:40,028
Cardinal Mahony's lawyers
cooked up this myth
1401
01:08:40,072 --> 01:08:41,856
called "formation privilege"
1402
01:08:41,900 --> 01:08:45,077
which has no basis
in canon law, civil law,
1403
01:08:45,121 --> 01:08:47,079
history, or theology,
1404
01:08:47,123 --> 01:08:50,648
that every communication
between a bishop
and one of his priests
1405
01:08:50,691 --> 01:08:56,175
is equal to confessional
as far as confidentiality
is concerned.
1406
01:08:56,219 --> 01:08:58,873
There are a lot of
privileged communications
1407
01:08:58,917 --> 01:09:01,659
in the state of California.
1408
01:09:01,702 --> 01:09:06,446
One of them is reporters
in news media of sources.
1409
01:09:06,490 --> 01:09:11,886
That's a very highly
protected protection
that you have.
1410
01:09:11,930 --> 01:09:16,891
There are between
a husband and wife testifying
against each other.
1411
01:09:16,935 --> 01:09:18,676
There are a whole list
of them.
1412
01:09:18,719 --> 01:09:21,461
Those are protected
communications,
1413
01:09:21,505 --> 01:09:24,072
and so a priest
talking to his bishop
1414
01:09:24,116 --> 01:09:25,944
is a protected
communication.
1415
01:09:27,293 --> 01:09:30,905
As Christian adults,
1416
01:09:30,949 --> 01:09:32,690
Catholic, non-Catholic,
1417
01:09:32,733 --> 01:09:36,084
Jewish, whatever,
1418
01:09:36,128 --> 01:09:38,086
we should always be
in the business
1419
01:09:38,130 --> 01:09:40,176
of protecting children.
1420
01:09:42,743 --> 01:09:47,095
The one thing
that always stuck with me
1421
01:09:47,139 --> 01:09:52,536
that Mahony didn't...
1422
01:09:59,543 --> 01:10:01,109
the children.
1423
01:10:01,153 --> 01:10:04,939
He didn't protect them.
1424
01:10:04,983 --> 01:10:06,941
He didn't come clean.
1425
01:10:06,985 --> 01:10:10,249
He has presided over, um...
1426
01:10:10,293 --> 01:10:13,513
the wholesale,
uh, sexual abuse
1427
01:10:13,557 --> 01:10:15,733
of dozens and dozens
and dozens of children
1428
01:10:15,776 --> 01:10:16,734
in his diocese.
1429
01:10:16,777 --> 01:10:18,170
Let me put it this way.
1430
01:10:18,214 --> 01:10:19,302
Cardinal Mahony's argument about the documents
1431
01:10:19,345 --> 01:10:22,740
is an argument David Koresh would love.
1432
01:10:22,783 --> 01:10:27,135
Basically, if doctrine lets you rape kids,
1433
01:10:27,179 --> 01:10:32,184
I guess that makes the Archdiocese of Los Angeles
1434
01:10:32,228 --> 01:10:33,229
an official cult.
1435
01:10:38,016 --> 01:10:40,148
The last place we found O'Grady
1436
01:10:40,192 --> 01:10:43,195
was living with a family in Thurles
1437
01:10:43,239 --> 01:10:45,980
in the shadow of the seminary he'd attended
1438
01:10:46,024 --> 01:10:47,417
with the full knowledge of the bishop,
1439
01:10:47,460 --> 01:10:49,984
of the rector of the seminary, with the full knowledge
1440
01:10:50,028 --> 01:10:52,770
and the family he was living with didn't know.
1441
01:10:52,813 --> 01:10:55,947
And the Garda, the police in Ireland, didn't know.
1442
01:10:58,819 --> 01:11:00,995
[O'Grady] I could say that my life has been a failure.
1443
01:11:01,039 --> 01:11:05,348
I'd like to think that I can still make some good decisions
1444
01:11:05,391 --> 01:11:11,005
and even bright future for myself as a result.
1445
01:11:11,049 --> 01:11:14,008
So, do I always
do the right things?
1446
01:11:14,052 --> 01:11:15,358
Obviously not, but--
1447
01:11:15,401 --> 01:11:16,794
Heh heh.
1448
01:11:16,837 --> 01:11:21,233
I think what I'm doing
right now is not alone.
1449
01:11:21,277 --> 01:11:23,366
The best thing,
but I think the only thing,
1450
01:11:23,409 --> 01:11:25,803
I'm thinking
of writing a letter
1451
01:11:25,846 --> 01:11:31,591
to each person that
I have offended sexually
in the past.
1452
01:11:31,635 --> 01:11:33,811
I do want
to apologize to them.
1453
01:11:33,854 --> 01:11:37,597
I am--
But I don't want that
1454
01:11:37,641 --> 01:11:39,251
to be a simple statement.
1455
01:11:39,295 --> 01:11:42,210
I think they--
1456
01:11:42,254 --> 01:11:43,821
Basically what I want
to say to them:
1457
01:11:43,864 --> 01:11:45,213
It should not have happened.
1458
01:11:45,257 --> 01:11:49,217
It should not have happened.
1459
01:11:49,261 --> 01:11:50,393
If I could invite these people
1460
01:11:50,436 --> 01:11:53,831
to come and meet with me one on one
1461
01:11:53,874 --> 01:11:58,836
and give them the opportunity to, again, talk to me,
1462
01:11:58,879 --> 01:12:01,273
tell me what I did to them.
1463
01:12:01,317 --> 01:12:02,318
I need to hear that
1464
01:12:02,361 --> 01:12:04,624
and I think they need to say that.
1465
01:12:04,668 --> 01:12:06,409
I can't say it's hard to do this.
1466
01:12:06,452 --> 01:12:08,280
I'm kind of happy that I am doing it,
1467
01:12:08,324 --> 01:12:12,632
but it's going to be a very interesting reunion.
1468
01:12:12,676 --> 01:12:17,855
And I really, really, really hope they come.
1469
01:12:17,898 --> 01:12:20,248
"I'm writing
this letter to you
1470
01:12:20,292 --> 01:12:22,381
"to invite you
to meet with me.
1471
01:12:22,425 --> 01:12:26,080
"I would like
to apologize to you again
1472
01:12:26,124 --> 01:12:29,649
"for the wrong
I did to you.
1473
01:12:29,693 --> 01:12:33,871
"It is my hope
that this opportunity
will allow you
1474
01:12:33,914 --> 01:12:37,265
"the freedom to continue
with your life
1475
01:12:37,309 --> 01:12:42,096
"knowing that I have
acknowledged my actions
of the past,
1476
01:12:42,140 --> 01:12:45,361
"and hopefully enabling you
1477
01:12:45,404 --> 01:12:50,104
to continue your life
in a better way from now on."
1478
01:12:50,148 --> 01:12:52,759
"I need to acknowledge
to you face to face
1479
01:12:52,803 --> 01:12:57,590
that I have molested
you sexually for many years
many years ago."
1480
01:12:57,634 --> 01:13:00,680
"In this way I will be able
to respond and apologize
1481
01:13:00,724 --> 01:13:03,291
to all those I have offended
in a sexual way."
1482
01:13:03,335 --> 01:13:04,510
[scoffs]
1483
01:13:11,387 --> 01:13:13,389
[crying]
1484
01:13:19,395 --> 01:13:21,919
[Ann]
He's a piece of crap, man.
1485
01:13:21,962 --> 01:13:24,704
He remembered
all of our names.
1486
01:13:24,748 --> 01:13:29,187
I get so angry to even think
that that guy's alive.
1487
01:13:30,971 --> 01:13:33,452
I would kill his mother.
1488
01:13:33,496 --> 01:13:35,715
I won't be quoting Scripture.
1489
01:13:35,759 --> 01:13:37,717
It won't open with a prayer,
1490
01:13:37,761 --> 01:13:40,938
except if anybody wants to,
be they need a--
1491
01:13:40,981 --> 01:13:44,332
It might not even close
with a prayer.
1492
01:13:44,376 --> 01:13:46,944
I don't expect people
to hug me when they leave.
1493
01:13:46,987 --> 01:13:48,336
I don't expect people--
1494
01:13:48,380 --> 01:13:51,165
I hope they might
shake hands with me,
1495
01:13:51,209 --> 01:13:53,516
and say, "Hey, yeah,
it's over right now."
1496
01:13:53,559 --> 01:13:56,344
And I let them
get on with their lives,
1497
01:13:56,388 --> 01:13:59,696
and I'm sure they'd be happy
to let me get on with mine.
1498
01:13:59,739 --> 01:14:01,393
Come on down, you know?
1499
01:14:01,437 --> 01:14:03,177
We'll have a barbe--
It's stupid.
1500
01:14:03,221 --> 01:14:04,527
[laughing]
1501
01:14:04,570 --> 01:14:07,007
What the fuck is he thinking
writing these letters?
1502
01:14:10,010 --> 01:14:12,404
Yeah, that's what
we all need.
1503
01:14:12,448 --> 01:14:15,146
To see him?
Are you kidding me?
1504
01:14:15,189 --> 01:14:17,409
We don't need
anything from him.
1505
01:14:17,453 --> 01:14:19,063
I want to know
what his motivation is.
1506
01:14:19,106 --> 01:14:22,414
I do not want to go over there
so he can get his jollies off
1507
01:14:22,458 --> 01:14:25,373
collecting his little family
of abuse victims.
1508
01:14:25,417 --> 01:14:28,768
[Ann]
Yeah, his little--
His little whatever.
1509
01:14:28,812 --> 01:14:30,553
My motivation
of going over there--
1510
01:14:30,596 --> 01:14:33,773
If I thought that
he had a heart
at all to touch,
1511
01:14:33,817 --> 01:14:34,861
it would be different.
1512
01:14:34,905 --> 01:14:36,994
But I think
he's so far gone--
1513
01:14:37,037 --> 01:14:40,388
But it would be to disclose
as much as you can
1514
01:14:40,432 --> 01:14:43,000
about what you did
while you were here
1515
01:14:43,043 --> 01:14:45,568
and putting the nail
in Mahony's coffin
1516
01:14:45,611 --> 01:14:49,397
to get the truth
about what he knew.
1517
01:14:49,441 --> 01:14:52,444
Those are the people.
1518
01:14:52,488 --> 01:14:54,011
Those are the letters,
1519
01:14:54,054 --> 01:14:59,277
and all I can say
is Godspeed.
1520
01:15:00,452 --> 01:15:02,585
I hope to see
all of you real soon.
1521
01:15:02,628 --> 01:15:07,590
I think the little girl
that's 5 years old
1522
01:15:07,633 --> 01:15:13,421
that's scared and afraid of him
is still afraid to go.
1523
01:15:13,465 --> 01:15:18,078
And then I think,
"I'm a big girl now...
1524
01:15:20,646 --> 01:15:24,650
"and what I didn't have
the courage as
a child to tell him...
1525
01:15:26,870 --> 01:15:32,049
it might be nice
to tell him something."
1526
01:15:32,092 --> 01:15:34,834
[Adam] Healing myself wasn't going to--
1527
01:15:34,878 --> 01:15:38,446
It was never pending
on what happened to him.
1528
01:15:38,490 --> 01:15:41,493
That's--
It's within me to get better,
1529
01:15:41,537 --> 01:15:45,497
not based on anything that--
1530
01:15:45,541 --> 01:15:48,065
I felt like
if I was relying
1531
01:15:48,108 --> 01:15:53,287
on his punishment
to heal myself,
1532
01:15:53,331 --> 01:15:56,943
it seems like that would be
giving too much clout
1533
01:15:56,987 --> 01:15:59,859
to the pain that
I'd gone through, you know?
1534
01:15:59,903 --> 01:16:03,646
To say that's what I am
and that's who I am--
1535
01:16:03,689 --> 01:16:07,301
That's not who I am, so...
1536
01:16:07,345 --> 01:16:12,089
When you were a little boy,
1537
01:16:12,132 --> 01:16:14,134
were you ever touched
sexually by a priest?
1538
01:16:18,138 --> 01:16:19,313
Yes.
1539
01:16:19,357 --> 01:16:23,100
And what was
that priest's name?
1540
01:16:23,143 --> 01:16:25,668
I can't remember.
1541
01:16:25,711 --> 01:16:28,496
Do you know where
it happened?
1542
01:16:28,540 --> 01:16:30,673
When I was an altar boy
at St. Michael's Church,
1543
01:16:30,716 --> 01:16:33,893
the event happened there.
1544
01:16:33,937 --> 01:16:35,721
How many times
did it happen, Oliver?
1545
01:16:40,944 --> 01:16:44,512
Not many.
I'd say two or three times.
1546
01:16:44,556 --> 01:16:46,558
I think we all go through
1547
01:16:46,602 --> 01:16:49,692
an exploratory stage
of that,
1548
01:16:49,735 --> 01:16:53,347
but my older brother
did abuse me.
1549
01:16:53,391 --> 01:16:56,568
Again, I find it hard
to say the word "abuse"
1550
01:16:56,612 --> 01:17:00,790
because I did not consider
that to be abuse at the time.
1551
01:17:00,833 --> 01:17:04,881
I think my older brother
initiated it with me.
1552
01:17:07,405 --> 01:17:10,147
I remember
in the early stages
1553
01:17:10,190 --> 01:17:13,585
feeling uncomfortable
with that.
1554
01:17:13,629 --> 01:17:15,369
But later when I found out
1555
01:17:15,413 --> 01:17:18,721
that he was also...
1556
01:17:18,764 --> 01:17:21,419
being sexual with my sister,
1557
01:17:22,986 --> 01:17:27,425
I became curious
and probably got
involved that way.
1558
01:17:30,210 --> 01:17:33,170
So the incidents
with your brother
at a younger age,
1559
01:17:33,213 --> 01:17:35,955
the incidents with
your brother at an older age
when you were 15?
1560
01:17:35,999 --> 01:17:36,956
Yes.
1561
01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:38,741
Multiple incidents
with your sister
1562
01:17:38,784 --> 01:17:40,394
when she was
approximately nine.
1563
01:17:40,438 --> 01:17:41,482
Correct.
1564
01:17:41,526 --> 01:17:43,963
Then you had
at least the two incidents
1565
01:17:44,007 --> 01:17:45,748
with the visiting priests
1566
01:17:45,791 --> 01:17:47,575
when you were 10 or 11.
1567
01:17:47,619 --> 01:17:48,794
Yes.
1568
01:17:52,450 --> 01:17:54,626
Have you ever thought,
Oliver,
1569
01:17:54,670 --> 01:17:57,977
that some of your problems
that you encountered as a priest
1570
01:17:58,021 --> 01:18:00,197
that led to your incarceration
1571
01:18:00,240 --> 01:18:01,633
may be related to that?
1572
01:18:04,244 --> 01:18:06,420
[O'Grady] I have thought about it,
1573
01:18:06,464 --> 01:18:08,814
but I can't seem to make a link.
1574
01:18:12,644 --> 01:18:15,995
I'm never going to get
what I want out of this.
1575
01:18:16,039 --> 01:18:17,127
[Maria]
Not from Mahony.
1576
01:18:17,170 --> 01:18:20,783
I'm never going to see them
all in jail.
1577
01:18:20,826 --> 01:18:22,654
So who gives a shit
what they think?
1578
01:18:22,698 --> 01:18:24,003
You just do
what you want to do
1579
01:18:24,047 --> 01:18:25,788
to take care of yourself.
1580
01:18:25,831 --> 01:18:28,616
To hell with them.
1581
01:18:28,660 --> 01:18:30,618
That's what you
got to do.
1582
01:18:30,662 --> 01:18:33,665
We're trying
to uncover the truth.
1583
01:18:33,709 --> 01:18:35,014
We're here to support you
1584
01:18:35,058 --> 01:18:38,017
and we're here to support
all of the other kids,
1585
01:18:38,061 --> 01:18:42,674
because this is big
business to the Church.
1586
01:18:42,718 --> 01:18:45,242
This is money
to the Church.
1587
01:18:45,285 --> 01:18:47,679
It's like a big
corporation.
1588
01:18:47,723 --> 01:18:49,246
We have to ask ourselves
1589
01:18:49,289 --> 01:18:52,249
who's paying
for this nightmare,
1590
01:18:52,292 --> 01:18:54,468
for this crisis?
1591
01:18:54,512 --> 01:18:55,818
Who is obliged
to get involved?
1592
01:18:55,861 --> 01:18:57,036
I think we all are.
1593
01:18:57,080 --> 01:18:59,038
One of the things
that I've seen
1594
01:18:59,082 --> 01:19:02,694
in my time with people
like yourselves
1595
01:19:02,738 --> 01:19:05,479
has been a change
in the understanding
of what church is.
1596
01:19:05,523 --> 01:19:07,046
Many of us,
when I ask you,
1597
01:19:07,090 --> 01:19:08,700
"When you hear
the word 'church,'
1598
01:19:08,744 --> 01:19:09,962
what comes to your mind?"
1599
01:19:10,006 --> 01:19:13,705
Most of us will think
of bishops, the Vatican,
1600
01:19:13,749 --> 01:19:16,839
the hierarchy,
church buildings.
1601
01:19:16,882 --> 01:19:18,666
That will be changing,
it is changing,
1602
01:19:18,710 --> 01:19:20,059
because church is us.
1603
01:19:20,103 --> 01:19:22,235
It's right here
in this room.
1604
01:19:22,279 --> 01:19:23,671
25 years ago,
1605
01:19:23,715 --> 01:19:28,285
Tom Doyle called
the bishops to action
1606
01:19:28,328 --> 01:19:31,854
and put a plan before
the U.S. Catholic
Conference of Bishops,
1607
01:19:31,897 --> 01:19:34,291
a comprehensive plan to address the crisis
1608
01:19:34,334 --> 01:19:35,858
of pedophilia in the priesthood.
1609
01:19:35,901 --> 01:19:37,511
Basically, they wrote a report
1610
01:19:37,555 --> 01:19:40,688
and said this is going to
be a massive crisis
1611
01:19:40,732 --> 01:19:44,301
that's going to cost the Church a billion dollars unless you do something.
1612
01:19:44,344 --> 01:19:49,306
[Wall] They found that there was a national crisis
1613
01:19:49,349 --> 01:19:52,875
of children being sexually abused by priests
1614
01:19:52,918 --> 01:19:55,529
on a massive scale.
1615
01:19:55,573 --> 01:19:56,879
[Doyle] I didn't know what they were doing.
1616
01:19:56,922 --> 01:19:58,750
I thought that they would take it and do something
1617
01:19:58,794 --> 01:20:00,143
because they were--
1618
01:20:00,186 --> 01:20:01,753
the Catholic Bishops
Conference in the United States
1619
01:20:01,797 --> 01:20:04,016
were forever giving
pronouncements on everything
1620
01:20:04,060 --> 01:20:08,542
from nuclear war to the Boy Scouts to animal husbandry
1621
01:20:08,586 --> 01:20:09,761
to chewing gum.
1622
01:20:09,805 --> 01:20:11,110
You name it, they were giving pronouncements
1623
01:20:11,154 --> 01:20:12,720
on the morality of just about everything.
1624
01:20:12,764 --> 01:20:14,940
But on this,
they stonewalled.
1625
01:20:14,984 --> 01:20:17,900
Cardinal Ratzinger,
now Pope Benedict,
1626
01:20:17,943 --> 01:20:21,773
was head of what's called the Office of the Congregation
1627
01:20:21,817 --> 01:20:24,341
for the Doctrine of the Faith.
1628
01:20:24,384 --> 01:20:28,780
The head of my church, the successor to Peter,
1629
01:20:28,824 --> 01:20:30,913
the Holy Father,
1630
01:20:30,956 --> 01:20:33,741
was the person in charge of making sure
1631
01:20:33,785 --> 01:20:35,918
that priests didn't hurt children.
1632
01:20:35,961 --> 01:20:40,748
He was in charge of that office from 1978 until 2005.
1633
01:20:40,792 --> 01:20:42,925
He did a very poor job,
1634
01:20:42,968 --> 01:20:46,363
and basically was the one person besides the Pope
1635
01:20:46,406 --> 01:20:49,801
who could have stopped it, and he didn't.
1636
01:20:49,845 --> 01:20:54,197
What the bishops did
is they squelched the report...
1637
01:20:56,852 --> 01:20:58,157
they went back
to their dioceses,
1638
01:20:58,201 --> 01:21:01,378
and they carried on as normal.
1639
01:21:01,421 --> 01:21:03,815
They knew children were being victimized,
1640
01:21:03,859 --> 01:21:06,383
and they did absolutely nothing
1641
01:21:06,426 --> 01:21:09,386
except insure that law enforcement and the public
1642
01:21:09,429 --> 01:21:11,779
and the faithful would not find out.
1643
01:21:11,823 --> 01:21:15,392
The bishops have known that bishops, priests, and deacons
1644
01:21:15,435 --> 01:21:19,396
have been sexually
the fourth century,nce
1645
01:21:19,439 --> 01:21:22,834
and it's been a severe
major, major problem,
1646
01:21:22,878 --> 01:21:24,967
and they've never really been able to curb it.
1647
01:21:25,010 --> 01:21:28,405
[Manly] Basically, you have a sexualized priesthood.
1648
01:21:28,448 --> 01:21:29,972
It's been sexualized for years,
1649
01:21:30,015 --> 01:21:32,409
that looks at child sexual abuse
1650
01:21:32,452 --> 01:21:35,847
no different than it does if you're having sex with a woman
1651
01:21:35,891 --> 01:21:40,634
because it's all a violation
of clerical celibacy.
1652
01:21:40,678 --> 01:21:44,812
If all sex by definition
was bad sex
1653
01:21:44,856 --> 01:21:46,945
because you weren't
supposed to be having it,
1654
01:21:46,989 --> 01:21:50,862
then pedophilia is just another kind of bad sex.
1655
01:21:50,906 --> 01:21:52,820
[Doyle] There is no basis in the scriptures
1656
01:21:52,864 --> 01:21:54,997
for mandatory celibacy.
1657
01:21:55,040 --> 01:21:57,434
It's not mandated by Christ.
1658
01:21:57,477 --> 01:22:00,437
It's not justified anywhere in the gospels
1659
01:22:00,480 --> 01:22:03,831
or in the life and times and sayings of Christ.
1660
01:22:03,875 --> 01:22:06,008
All 12 apostles were married,
1661
01:22:06,051 --> 01:22:09,011
with probably the exception of John.
1662
01:22:09,054 --> 01:22:13,841
The first several dozen
popes were married
1663
01:22:13,885 --> 01:22:15,582
and had children.
1664
01:22:15,626 --> 01:22:18,846
It's something that the institutional Church leaders
1665
01:22:18,890 --> 01:22:21,675
began to think about and tried to impose
1666
01:22:21,719 --> 01:22:24,461
at least from the fourth century.
1667
01:22:24,504 --> 01:22:26,680
Married priests, when they died,
1668
01:22:26,724 --> 01:22:30,032
their inheritance went to their oldest son.
1669
01:22:30,075 --> 01:22:32,904
So the institutionalized Church leaders,
1670
01:22:32,948 --> 01:22:36,473
desiring to stop this practice, began to mandate celibacy
1671
01:22:36,516 --> 01:22:40,912
so that when a priest's property had to pass after he died
1672
01:22:40,956 --> 01:22:43,262
it would go to the bishop or to the Church.
1673
01:22:43,306 --> 01:22:44,872
What we have to remember
is a lot of the priests
1674
01:22:44,916 --> 01:22:47,266
who have been reported
as offenders
1675
01:22:47,310 --> 01:22:50,704
went into the seminary
at a minor seminary
1676
01:22:50,748 --> 01:22:53,272
at ages 14, 15, 16.
1677
01:22:53,316 --> 01:22:56,884
They may have been thinking about a vocation even earlier.
1678
01:22:56,928 --> 01:22:59,191
They got stopped.
1679
01:22:59,235 --> 01:23:02,716
They got literally arrested in their psychosexual development.
1680
01:23:02,760 --> 01:23:06,503
[Doyle] They're nurtured in an attitude of negativity
1681
01:23:06,546 --> 01:23:09,506
toward relationships, toward women,
1682
01:23:09,549 --> 01:23:11,943
toward marriage, and toward sexuality,
1683
01:23:11,987 --> 01:23:13,901
and they never really fully understand
1684
01:23:13,945 --> 01:23:15,642
what any of these are all about.
1685
01:23:15,686 --> 01:23:17,949
[Frawley-O'Dea] So when these men
1686
01:23:17,993 --> 01:23:21,083
became unable to be celibate
1687
01:23:21,126 --> 01:23:24,521
or when their sexual urges overpowered them,
1688
01:23:24,564 --> 01:23:28,742
they sought out victims who they experienced at some level
1689
01:23:28,786 --> 01:23:31,006
as psychosexual peers.
1690
01:23:33,965 --> 01:23:35,749
The L.A. Timesrecently reported
1691
01:23:35,793 --> 01:23:40,754
that 10% of
the seminary graduates
from St. John's Seminary,
1692
01:23:40,798 --> 01:23:43,105
where the vast majority
of priests in the western U.S.
1693
01:23:43,148 --> 01:23:44,628
went to the seminary,
1694
01:23:44,671 --> 01:23:48,936
a full 10% since 1960
of their graduates
are pedophiles.
1695
01:23:48,980 --> 01:23:50,764
Perpetrators of children.
1696
01:23:50,808 --> 01:23:51,939
10%.
1697
01:23:51,983 --> 01:23:54,333
If Yale was producing
10% of its students
1698
01:23:54,377 --> 01:23:56,553
that became
to be perpetrators,
1699
01:23:56,596 --> 01:23:57,858
somebody would take action.
1700
01:23:57,902 --> 01:24:01,123
In Boston, after the final
settlements were made
1701
01:24:01,166 --> 01:24:05,953
for about $85 million
a couple of years ago,
1702
01:24:05,997 --> 01:24:08,782
one of the priests
said publicly
at an interview,
1703
01:24:08,826 --> 01:24:11,133
"Thank God this clergy
crisis is over.
1704
01:24:11,176 --> 01:24:13,309
Now we can get back
to normal."
1705
01:24:13,352 --> 01:24:15,354
The situation was far worse
1706
01:24:15,398 --> 01:24:19,358
than even what
the most hardened cynic
1707
01:24:19,402 --> 01:24:20,794
thought was going on.
1708
01:24:20,838 --> 01:24:24,494
Cardinal Law was the Archbishop of Boston.
1709
01:24:24,537 --> 01:24:27,888
Presided over some of the worst sexual abusers
1710
01:24:27,932 --> 01:24:30,195
in the history of the Church.
1711
01:24:30,239 --> 01:24:32,850
It was something
1712
01:24:32,893 --> 01:24:36,158
that ultimately caused Cardinal Law to step down.
1713
01:24:36,201 --> 01:24:38,116
You would think, if you presided
1714
01:24:38,160 --> 01:24:41,206
over the abuse of, uh, dozens of children,
1715
01:24:41,250 --> 01:24:44,427
that that would mean you would be sent to a punishment.
1716
01:24:44,470 --> 01:24:46,951
You know, the Vatican didn't even make it a secret.
1717
01:24:46,994 --> 01:24:49,127
They thought he was unfairly accused in the media.
1718
01:24:49,171 --> 01:24:51,347
They made him the Cardinal Archbishop
1719
01:24:51,390 --> 01:24:53,436
of this church in Rome,
1720
01:24:53,479 --> 01:24:57,570
and he actually presided at Pope John Paul II's funeral Mass.
1721
01:24:57,614 --> 01:24:59,398
What's happening
in Los Angeles
1722
01:24:59,442 --> 01:25:03,098
does in many ways dwarf
what happened in Boston.
1723
01:25:03,141 --> 01:25:05,361
As of June 2002,
1724
01:25:05,404 --> 01:25:09,800
we had over 100 criminal
investigations ongoing,
1725
01:25:09,843 --> 01:25:14,848
and that encompassed
over 100 individual priests.
1726
01:25:14,892 --> 01:25:16,459
What that tells you
1727
01:25:16,502 --> 01:25:20,158
is how large the scope
of this problem is.
1728
01:25:20,202 --> 01:25:23,727
I think the Vatican
is looking for a way
1729
01:25:23,770 --> 01:25:26,251
to say
"We've solved this,"
1730
01:25:26,295 --> 01:25:29,036
and they
are scapegoating--
1731
01:25:29,080 --> 01:25:32,170
because so many
of the victims
were male victims,
1732
01:25:32,214 --> 01:25:34,433
they're scapegoating
the homosexual priests
1733
01:25:34,477 --> 01:25:36,957
and saying "If we get rid
of the homosexual priests,
1734
01:25:37,001 --> 01:25:38,220
then we'll be rid
of this problem."
1735
01:25:38,263 --> 01:25:40,918
Most men
who abuse children
1736
01:25:40,961 --> 01:25:43,050
are heterosexual.
1737
01:25:43,094 --> 01:25:45,140
The Bishops' Conference,
I think,
1738
01:25:45,183 --> 01:25:47,881
would like to project
that this problem
is now over with.
1739
01:25:47,925 --> 01:25:50,188
It's taken care of.
They have solved it,
1740
01:25:50,232 --> 01:25:51,624
and it's now under control,
1741
01:25:51,668 --> 01:25:56,063
which is a normal
corporate approach
1742
01:25:56,107 --> 01:25:58,805
to something of this nature.
1743
01:25:58,849 --> 01:26:01,068
I'm sure that the guys
in Enron thought that, too,
1744
01:26:01,112 --> 01:26:02,896
when they were, uh,
discovered.
1745
01:26:02,940 --> 01:26:04,681
Every day, every week,
1746
01:26:04,724 --> 01:26:09,338
I learn of another, uh,
uh, child, young adult,
1747
01:26:09,381 --> 01:26:12,210
uh, uh, offended by a cleric
1748
01:26:12,254 --> 01:26:15,213
who hasn't been disclosed
before this day,
1749
01:26:15,257 --> 01:26:19,217
and my fear is, my belief is,
that there are not hundreds,
1750
01:26:19,261 --> 01:26:21,611
but there are thousands
of offenders
1751
01:26:21,654 --> 01:26:24,483
yet to be exposed
and disclosed
1752
01:26:24,527 --> 01:26:26,833
still roaming the churches
1753
01:26:26,877 --> 01:26:28,922
in the landscapes
in this U.S.,
1754
01:26:28,966 --> 01:26:30,620
and tens of thousands--
1755
01:26:30,663 --> 01:26:32,578
tens of thousands worldwide.
1756
01:26:32,622 --> 01:26:34,232
What is a good Catholic?
1757
01:26:34,276 --> 01:26:36,495
A good Catholic
traditionally
1758
01:26:36,539 --> 01:26:38,454
is someone who kept
their mouth shut,
1759
01:26:38,497 --> 01:26:40,412
their pocketbook open,
you know--
1760
01:26:40,456 --> 01:26:41,544
[light laughter]
1761
01:26:41,587 --> 01:26:43,023
Paid, prayed, and obeyed,
1762
01:26:43,067 --> 01:26:44,242
was docile, went to Mass,
1763
01:26:44,286 --> 01:26:45,809
obeyed
all the Commandments,
1764
01:26:45,852 --> 01:26:47,376
went to Confession
on a regular basis.
1765
01:26:47,419 --> 01:26:51,380
For the most part,
was ritualized,
obedient, and quiet.
1766
01:26:51,423 --> 01:26:53,599
But a good Catholic
is not that at all.
1767
01:26:53,643 --> 01:26:55,166
A good Catholic
is a Catholic
1768
01:26:55,210 --> 01:26:56,820
in the model
of Jesus Christ:
1769
01:26:56,863 --> 01:26:58,778
a revolutionary,
1770
01:26:58,822 --> 01:27:00,302
someone who's not afraid--
1771
01:27:00,345 --> 01:27:03,827
[applause]
1772
01:27:03,870 --> 01:27:05,394
Someone who's not afraid
1773
01:27:05,437 --> 01:27:07,831
to get up
and speak the truth.
1774
01:27:07,874 --> 01:27:11,791
Remember, the only time
Christ ever got angry
1775
01:27:11,835 --> 01:27:13,532
was when He went to church.
1776
01:27:13,576 --> 01:27:17,232
And as we speak,
Tom Doyle goes to Rome,
1777
01:27:17,275 --> 01:27:19,321
not because the Pope's
gonna hear him,
1778
01:27:19,364 --> 01:27:22,193
but because he has to do
what they should be
doing,
1779
01:27:22,237 --> 01:27:24,326
and making those
known offenders,
1780
01:27:24,369 --> 01:27:25,762
such
as Oliver O'Grady,
1781
01:27:25,805 --> 01:27:28,112
who now resides
in Ireland,
1782
01:27:28,155 --> 01:27:31,898
uh, known to the community
as an offender.
1783
01:27:31,942 --> 01:27:34,161
[Doyle] I think a lot of the people in Rome
1784
01:27:34,205 --> 01:27:35,467
are in deep denial
1785
01:27:35,511 --> 01:27:37,991
about just how serious this issue is.
1786
01:27:38,035 --> 01:27:40,777
Never attempted this
before, honestly.
1787
01:27:40,820 --> 01:27:43,127
Pronto.
1788
01:27:43,170 --> 01:27:45,608
Mi chiamo Patrizio Wall.
1789
01:27:45,651 --> 01:27:49,176
Uh, I'm calling,
uh, Father Tom Doyle,
1790
01:27:49,220 --> 01:27:51,266
who is in America.
1791
01:27:51,309 --> 01:27:54,225
Yes,
you know Father Thomas?
1792
01:27:54,269 --> 01:27:57,533
Yeah.
He will be coming to Rome.
1793
01:27:57,576 --> 01:28:00,057
As far as I know,
he's in Rome,
1794
01:28:00,100 --> 01:28:01,972
trying to help two victims,
1795
01:28:02,015 --> 01:28:04,017
one of whom's our client,
Ann Jyono.
1796
01:28:04,061 --> 01:28:06,324
Uh, they have an appointment
1797
01:28:06,368 --> 01:28:07,891
with somebody at the Holy See
1798
01:28:07,934 --> 01:28:10,415
to--to hear their-- their complaint.
1799
01:28:14,724 --> 01:28:17,379
[Bob] I'm doing this for my daughter,
1800
01:28:17,422 --> 01:28:18,771
but I said to her,
1801
01:28:18,815 --> 01:28:21,470
"if you do it
for the other victims
1802
01:28:21,513 --> 01:28:23,559
"and the children...
1803
01:28:23,602 --> 01:28:26,431
"or...
1804
01:28:26,475 --> 01:28:28,259
the kids..."
1805
01:28:30,043 --> 01:28:32,872
"I'll help."
1806
01:28:32,916 --> 01:28:34,787
By golly.
1807
01:28:36,223 --> 01:28:39,096
People got to know!
1808
01:28:39,139 --> 01:28:40,750
It's not right.
1809
01:28:40,793 --> 01:28:42,360
They haven't a clue,
you know,
1810
01:28:42,404 --> 01:28:44,971
if it hasn't
happened to them.
1811
01:28:45,015 --> 01:28:46,408
Nobody has a clue.
1812
01:28:46,451 --> 01:28:48,845
They have no idea
what it does to people.
1813
01:28:48,888 --> 01:28:50,281
And we're not victims--
1814
01:28:50,325 --> 01:28:51,674
Destroys you everywhere.
1815
01:28:51,717 --> 01:28:53,893
...in that sense,
but Ann was a victim.
1816
01:28:53,937 --> 01:28:57,375
She was raped
by this priest!
1817
01:28:57,419 --> 01:29:01,379
People understand,
he isn't a pedophile,
he's a rapist!
1818
01:29:02,598 --> 01:29:05,427
My anger's so hard.
1819
01:29:35,195 --> 01:29:36,849
[Doyle] Right now, I'm in Rome,
1820
01:29:36,893 --> 01:29:38,895
and I'm waiting to meet with the Jyonos,
1821
01:29:38,938 --> 01:29:40,287
a family whose children
1822
01:29:40,331 --> 01:29:43,465
have been sexually abused by Oliver O'Grady.
1823
01:29:43,508 --> 01:29:46,598
Uh, I've not met them. I'm going to meet them,
1824
01:29:46,642 --> 01:29:50,080
and my purpose is to hopefully help them
1825
01:29:50,123 --> 01:29:52,952
begin a healing process.
1826
01:29:52,996 --> 01:29:54,476
Good morning.
How are you doing?
1827
01:29:54,519 --> 01:29:55,520
Good morning.
1828
01:29:57,479 --> 01:29:59,394
How do you feel?
1829
01:30:06,488 --> 01:30:07,880
This is Ann.
1830
01:30:16,411 --> 01:30:17,934
[Doyle]
And what I'm gonna do is,
1831
01:30:17,977 --> 01:30:20,632
if we preface this
with a short sentence
1832
01:30:20,676 --> 01:30:22,765
and say...
1833
01:30:22,808 --> 01:30:25,942
bishops, archbishops,
and cardinals
1834
01:30:25,985 --> 01:30:28,553
have consistently lied
to us and to the public
1835
01:30:28,597 --> 01:30:30,729
and to law enforcement
agencies
1836
01:30:30,773 --> 01:30:32,818
about the cover-up
1837
01:30:32,862 --> 01:30:35,691
of sexual abuse
by the clergy, period.
1838
01:30:35,734 --> 01:30:38,607
Uh, we'll address it
to the Pope,
1839
01:30:38,650 --> 01:30:41,218
and it'll be from you
specifically,
1840
01:30:41,261 --> 01:30:43,873
but speaking in the name
of all those
1841
01:30:43,916 --> 01:30:45,962
who have been
victimized and molested,
1842
01:30:46,005 --> 01:30:48,486
and I'm gonna put it
in language that they will--
1843
01:30:48,530 --> 01:30:50,183
direct language
they'll understand.
1844
01:32:47,910 --> 01:32:50,913
A lot has changed
in the Catholic Church
this year,
1845
01:32:50,956 --> 01:32:52,610
but it's still having trouble
1846
01:32:52,654 --> 01:32:55,526
responding to the victims
of sexual abuse by priests.
1847
01:32:55,570 --> 01:32:58,834
Today, two American women
came to the Vatican
1848
01:32:58,877 --> 01:33:02,446
hoping to deliver a letter
to the new Pope.
1849
01:33:02,489 --> 01:33:04,927
The guards
wouldn't let them in.
1850
01:33:04,970 --> 01:33:09,584
Since we are survivors
of clergy abuse,
1851
01:33:09,627 --> 01:33:11,890
it has been a very
difficult journey,
1852
01:33:11,934 --> 01:33:14,632
and we have come
thousands of miles
1853
01:33:14,676 --> 01:33:16,895
to try to plead
1854
01:33:16,939 --> 01:33:20,246
for some sort of mercy
and assistance
1855
01:33:20,290 --> 01:33:23,685
with our journey
in pain and healing.
1856
01:33:23,728 --> 01:33:26,905
We seek, uh,
to regain our faith.
1857
01:33:37,437 --> 01:33:39,831
[Doyle] And instead of...
1858
01:33:39,875 --> 01:33:42,355
embracing them, reaching out to them,
1859
01:33:42,399 --> 01:33:44,880
the institutional church not only rejected them,
1860
01:33:44,923 --> 01:33:46,664
but they revictimized them.
1861
01:33:46,708 --> 01:33:49,362
They abused them by pointing them out to be--
1862
01:33:49,406 --> 01:33:51,626
making them out to be an enemy of the Church.
1863
01:33:51,669 --> 01:33:53,976
I--I got them alone at one point
1864
01:33:54,019 --> 01:33:56,979
and expressed a sincere apology,
1865
01:33:57,022 --> 01:33:59,503
my profound regrets as to what had happened to them,
1866
01:33:59,546 --> 01:34:00,722
and I apologized to them
1867
01:34:00,765 --> 01:34:02,027
in the name of the institution,
1868
01:34:02,071 --> 01:34:03,463
the clergy, and the priests,
1869
01:34:03,507 --> 01:34:05,683
which I am still legally a part of.
1870
01:34:05,727 --> 01:34:07,685
And both of them said,
1871
01:34:07,729 --> 01:34:10,645
"No one has ever said this to us before."
1872
01:34:50,423 --> 01:34:51,773
I made up my mind.
1873
01:34:51,816 --> 01:34:53,339
There is no God.
1874
01:34:53,383 --> 01:34:56,995
I do not believe
in a God, all right?
1875
01:34:57,039 --> 01:35:01,260
All of these rules,
everything...
1876
01:35:01,304 --> 01:35:04,611
they're made up
by man, you know?
1877
01:35:04,655 --> 01:35:08,572
I've tried to find...
1878
01:35:08,615 --> 01:35:11,836
what it is that...
1879
01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:14,230
brought religion
to where it is today,
1880
01:35:14,273 --> 01:35:16,580
why, you know,
1881
01:35:16,623 --> 01:35:20,845
what differences and, um...
1882
01:35:20,889 --> 01:35:23,456
the similarities
in all of them,
1883
01:35:23,500 --> 01:35:25,720
and I think that that's
a big thing for me
1884
01:35:25,763 --> 01:35:28,853
is that they all...
1885
01:35:28,897 --> 01:35:33,815
share some common theme
or philosophy at some level,
1886
01:35:33,858 --> 01:35:39,211
and you can't say
"This one, not that one"
1887
01:35:39,255 --> 01:35:42,301
without alienating
someone, so--
1888
01:35:42,345 --> 01:35:45,087
and that's not--
that wasn't the message
1889
01:35:45,130 --> 01:35:48,873
of Jesus or Buddha
or Mohammad or anybody,
1890
01:35:48,917 --> 01:35:51,789
so what's--
1891
01:35:51,833 --> 01:35:54,705
They're already off-base
at that point,
1892
01:35:54,749 --> 01:35:56,620
and that happened
a long time ago,
1893
01:35:56,663 --> 01:36:02,104
so...I think
it's just all...
1894
01:36:02,147 --> 01:36:03,801
all where...
1895
01:36:03,845 --> 01:36:05,760
the only place
it could have gone
1896
01:36:05,803 --> 01:36:07,849
is the wrong direction.
1897
01:36:07,892 --> 01:36:09,807
What we need to do
as a Church
1898
01:36:09,851 --> 01:36:12,810
is to acknowledge
our good days
and our bad days,
1899
01:36:12,854 --> 01:36:14,943
our good times
and our bad times.
1900
01:36:14,986 --> 01:36:17,293
Somehow we always
seem to look back
1901
01:36:17,336 --> 01:36:21,210
and say, "Well,
there were dark
moments and times
1902
01:36:21,253 --> 01:36:22,646
"in our history.
1903
01:36:22,689 --> 01:36:24,822
We would rather
not dwell on them."
1904
01:36:24,866 --> 01:36:26,824
In a very poetic way,
you see?

01:36:26,868 --> 01:36:28,652
And that's very nice.
1906
01:36:28,695 --> 01:36:30,523
But it's not reality.
1907
01:36:30,567 --> 01:36:32,438

to say, "Hey,
1908
01:36:32,482 --> 01:36:34,832
"you know, we had one
heck of an awful time
1909

there
in the Middle Ages."
1910
01:36:36,442 --> 01:36:40,490
But you know what?
We're still here.
1911
01:36:40,533 --> 01:36:42,797
And that's the point,
1912
01:36:42,840 --> 01:36:44,624
if the Church
could see it.
