Amen!



A Kansas City bishop has been charged with failure to report suspected child abuse. Can you say, "AMEN!?"


Robert W. Finn was indicted by a grand jury on Friday. As recently as last December, Finn admitted he knew of a pornographic photograph of a young girl taken by one of his priests, Rev. Shawn Ratigan. Ratigan tried to commit suicide after the picture was discovered on his laptop, but unfortunately failed.


If convicted, Bishop Finn faces monetary fines. He has vowed to fight the charges.


Interestingly, he also vowed three years ago to report suspected abusers as part of a $10 million settlement with abuse victims in Kansas City. That particular promise apparently meant nothing..
