Revealing Dark Secrets in The Creepy Chambers of the Catholic Church--Greg Gianforcaro Roar with Shari

I’m talking to Attorney Greg Gianforcaro who is a fierce fighter against the Catholic Church and the priests that sexually abused Greg's childhood friends.  Greg goes against the Catholic Church who Karney calls, "perpetrators by proxy".

Attorney and former altar boy as a child, Gianforcaro decided to represent many of his friends after they came forward as adults with allegations of sexual abuse by a priest at the St. James Parish in Mendham. 

It turned out to be not just a few cases, but dozens of his friends alleging abuse by Father James Hanley during his 10 years as a priest from 1973 to 1982. Hanley was never charged because the criminal statute of limitations had expired in all of the cases.

 “Priests do not become pedophiles, pedophiles become priests. In their role as priests for centuries, they had unfettered access to children,” says Gianforcaro.  

Listen to Greg and Shari Karney talk legal shop and dig into the details on the law for adult survivors of child sexual abuse and pedophilia within a religious context and the Catholic Church.  Shari Karney is a victims’ rights attorney who represents victims of child sexual abuse, sexual assault, rape, and sexual harassment. Currently, Karney and the nonprofit, Roar As One™ are working on educating Congress on the need to eliminate all statutes of limitations for survivors of child sexual abuse. There should be no time limits for justice for survivors of child sexual abuse.  Children so preyed on, exploited, and cruelly harmed should have human and civil rights.  Those who use power under a religious cloak should not be able to use their power to sexually abuse young helpless children. Karney believes that every victim deserves to have their voice heard. Through empowering victims of child sexual abuse, we stop the vicious generational cycle.
