Another unfolding sexual abuse crisis is ongoing here in the Archdiocese of Washington. Within the past month I have learned our internationally renowned priest and former Vice Rector at the prestigious NAC Seminary in Rome is to be made a pastor at a parish. Only with Cardinal Gregory’s informed consent and written formal documentation can this placement of Fr Adam Park actually take place.
