Re: FW: Interesting question: Portland Archdiocese Filing Chapter 11

The background check only ensure they are not HIRING a pedophile.  It cannot insulate the church from its own knowledge of multiple child victims.  That is the knowledge that is driving the various fraudulent concealment arguments.   Marci   I mean, if fraud is premised upon guilty knowledge, then a church's good faith execution of a plan under which anyone contacting minors is subjected to a criminal background check would seem to be doing what it should and what it can to insure that no one that it knows of is an abuser.
