Self-reports of forgetting and remembering childhood sexual abuse in a nationally representative sample of US women. Wilsnack SC, Wonderlich SA, Kristjanson AF, Vogeltanz-Holm ND, Wilsnack RW Child Abuse Negl 2002 Feb; 26(2):139-47 "The findings indicate that, among women who report CSA, forgetting and subsequently remembering abuse experiences is not uncommon. According to the women surveyed, however, very few (1.8%) of those who felt abused recovered memories of CSA with help from therapists or other professionals. As one of the few studies of CSA memories in a nationally representative sample, this study suggests that therapist-assisted recall is not a major source of CSA memories among women in the US general population."

No extension for sex-abuse suits - Dane Smith - Star Tribune - 4/10/02 "Against the backdrop of a widening national scandal involving child sexual abuse by Catholic priests, the Minnesota House quashed an amendment Tuesday that would give victims more time to sue their abusers. That prompted abuse victims and their advocates to claim that powerful interest groups representing churches, schools and other groups that care for children were protecting themselves at the expense of those children." http://www.startribune.com/stories/462/2219640.html Report: DA to Convene Special Jury - By Diego Ibarguen - New York (AP) - "In what lawyers say would be a first in the nation, a district attorney is seeking to convene a special grand jury to investigate child-sex allegations against priests, according to a published report..... It would be the first time in the United States that a special grand jury was convened solely to conduct a broad-ranging investigation of sexual abuse allegations against priests, several lawyers said....Since January, dozens of Catholic priests out of more than 47,000 nationwide have been suspended or forced to resign on suspicion of child molestation, in a scandal that began in Boston. The Archdioceses of New York and Boston, as well as dioceses in Cincinnati, New Hampshire and Maine, have agreed to turn over to prosecutors information on priests accused of molesting children."
