PA’s Top Prosecutor: 1,862 Calls Made To Clergy Abuse Hotline

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Pennsylvania’s top prosecutor says investigations remain underway after 1,862 calls were made to his office’s clergy abuse hotline in the past 12 months. The hotline was set up as his office released a landmark grand jury report exposing decades of child abuse within the state’s Roman Catholic dioceses. Attorney General Josh Shapiro said Tuesday about 90 percent of those calls concerned allegations of abuse or cover-ups within the Catholic church.
