The Harrisburg diocese has not confirmed or discredited any of the accusations.
Harrisburg Diocese Outlines Sex Abuse Reforms
But releasing the list of accused pedophiles is just one step in Gainer’s march toward greater transparency, the Bishop said in a press release. The Harrisburg diocese is currently making a list of all buildings and properties named after clergy members; it plans to remove the names of priests accused of abuse.
The church has also taken the unusual step of rescinding its right to confidentiality so that details from past settlement agreements can be released into the public domain. Going forward, the diocese has committed itself to new abuse reporting procedures.
From here on out, all complaints of sex abuse will be immediately forwarded to law enforcement officials. Anyone working for the church, including volunteers, will receive background checks. A new training program will be required for all diocese employees.
