Catholic Church protecting pedophiles, this time in Arkansas |
http://www.kfsm.com/Global/story.asp?S=3095346
FORT SMITH, Ark. Lawyers for Subiaco Academy are arguing that a man who says
he was abused by a priest who taught at the Catholic school can't file suit
because the statute of limitations is up.
The Catholic school filed a response in federal court to a suit filed
earlier this month by the accuser. The accuser's suit claimed he was abused
from 1976 to 1979. The priest and school are named as defendants. The priest
no longer teaches at the northern Arkansas school, but still lives and works
there.
Both the school and the priest deny the accuser's allegations.

I thought statutes of limitations only applied to criminal cases. This
sounds like a civil suit. Likely, the guy is still suffering from the
abuse, so he should be able to bring suit. Also, if the local church
covered it up (shocking! totally without precedent!) they are STILL
covering it up- so no statute has run out on it.

Some case law should should easily prove the "statute" issue easily. The
defense can make any claim they want but if there is no case law to support
it, it just turns into a stalling tatic.

I didn't think there was one on sex crimes.

So there's no proof he's guilty? Right? Which means your sensational thread
title is a farce.

What is not a farce is the fact that the Craptolic church has been guilty of
this crime many, many times in the past. So you automatically assume they
are guilty.

You should put as much time and effort into policing your own as you do
covering up for those who don't deserve it.

Which is why they're going to court, to get the proof necessary. The
thread is sensational, but not a farce. Not yet.
