Vast archive on abuse aids victims, scholars - Database lists 3,000 accused priests By Michael Paulson Globe Staff - 1/29/2008 Waltham - In a drab office building on Main Street, Terry McKiernan and Anne Barrett Doyle are quietly amassing a vast archive of abuse: thousands and thousands of documents chronicling the sprawling crisis that has confronted the Catholic Church....A closet-sized room is lined with file cabinets, filled with 100 boxfuls of papers donated by a Texas lawyer who painstakingly amassed a database of 3,000 Catholic priests nationwide accused of abuse....This is the headquarters of bishopaccountability.org, a fast-growing website that is fashioning itself as a kind of cross between The Smoking Gun and an academ ic archive, aiming to be the first place to post the most sought-after new documents, as well as a repository of records for historical purposes. The site now has 93,000 files on the Internet and 647,000 paper files, and the collection is growing. The site has become a resource for journalists, academics, and filmmakers interested in the abuse crisis and a key source of information for abuse victims and their families who are seeking more information about their abusers and church officials. _http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2008/01/29/vast_archive_on_abuse_aids_victims_scholars/?page=1_ (http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2008/01/29/vast_archive_on_abuse_aids_victims_scholars/?page=1) describes crimes - Officers: Thousands of Child Porn Suspects Not Investigated 2/6/08 by Dena Potter Richmond, Va. (AP)....Law enforcement officials have identified more than 19,000 individual computers with such hard-core child pornography files on them in Virginia, but said they simply do not have the resources to investigate all of the suspected sexual predators. Members from Virginia's two Internet Crimes Against Children task forces were in Richmond on Wednesday to push "Alicia's Law," named after a Pennsylvania teen who was brought to Virginia by an online predator, raped and tortured....Virginia ranks eighth per capita nationwide in the number of transactions of child pornography over the Internet, according to software that tracks peer-to-peer file transactions. Since 2005, the ICAC task forces have identified more than 215,000 folders containing child pornography that Virginians have shared on Web sites commonly used to share music and other files....Officers have identified 1,956 computers containing child pornography in Virginia Beach _ the most of any Virginia locality. The problem exists even in the state's small towns, with tiny Pound in far southwest Virginia being home to 53 unique hard drives containing child porn. The ICAC team has identified one computer in Sandston near Richmond that has made at least 187 transactions, sharing pictures and videos of infants and young children being brutally raped and molested.....A 2005 Department of Justice study suggested that 55 percent of those convicted of possessing child pornography admitted to illegal contact with children. The ICAC task forces have found that local children are the victims in about 30 percent of the discovered files. _http://www.wtop.com/?nid=600&sid=1331687_ (http://www.wtop.com/?nid=600&sid=1331687) **************Biggest Grammy Award surprises of all time on AOL Music.
