N.H. bishop reportedly coached priest on abuse reply By Stephen Kurkjian, 10/30/02 AFFREY, N.H. - Before becoming bishop of the Manchester Diocese, John B. McCormack spent much of the 1980s and 1990s as the aide to Cardinal Bernard F. Law who dealt with - and according to records, often coddled - priests accused of molesting children. In April, a flood tide of documents showed how McCormack threw a protective blanket over the Rev. Paul R. Shanley when others complained about Shanley's public support for men having sex with boys. Two weeks after the Shanley disclosures, McCormack resigned as chairman of a US bishops' committee on sexual abuse. In June, McCormack decided it was appropriate to reassign the Rev. Ronald P. Cote, 57, to St. Patrick's Church here, even though Cote had admitted to McCormack that he'd had sex with a teenage boy and that the diocese was arranging a secret and pricey settlement of a legal claim against the priest." http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe2/303/metro/N_H_bishop_reportedly_coached_priest_on_abuse_reply+.shtml
Boston's Law Hushed Ex-Altar Boy on Abuse -Lawyer - Oct. 31 — Boston (Reuters) - "Bernard Law, now the leader of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston, told a former Missouri altar boy to keep quiet about sexual abuse by a parish priest in the early 1980s, the alleged victim's lawyer said on Thursday. Confirming a report that first appeared in Thursday's Boston Herald newspaper, lawyer Stan Spero said Cardinal Law, who was then a bishop in Missouri, told his client to be careful with the information and warned that outsiders would use it to harm the church." http://abcnews.go.com/wire/US/reuters20021031_233.html
DOD Releases Project Shad Fact Sheets "The Department of Defense today released detailed fact sheets on six Cold War-era chemical and biological warfare tests....A DoD investigative team found that simulants were used in lieu of chemical and biological warfare agents in many of these tests, but a number did involve the use of actual chemical and biological warfare agents. Of the six tests detailed in today's release, three used live nerve agents, one used a live biological agent, and one used a simulant that, while believed to be harmless at the time, has subsequently been found to be hazardous. The sixth test used a non-hazardous simulant." http://www.defenselink.mil/news/May2002/b05232002_bt264-02.html <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
