By Christopher Carr, Georgia.gov - This abuse and cover-up by the Church prior to 2002 is horrific and indefensible. As I turned each page of this 267-page report and saw the pattern that emerged and the number of lives destroyed, it further sickened and angered me. It is a travesty of justice that this was ever allowed to occur, either in the Church or anywhere in the State of Georgia, but it must never be tolerated again.
