Revered, famous and iconic Chicago Catholic priest, Rev. George H. Clements, who has been credibly accused of childhood sexual abuse, is part of an $800,000.00 mediated settlement of a few months ago with the Archdiocese of Chicago along with three other credibly accused Chicago priests and a sexually abusive Irish Christian Brother who served in more than one Chicago Catholic High School.
All five (5) of the victims in the aforementioned mediated settlement are represented by Attorney Mitchell Garabedian
However, Cardinal Blase Cupich, the Archbishop of Chicago, has refused to place the name of Father George H. Clements on the updated list of credibly accused sexually abusive clergy. The three other clergymen and the Irish Christian Brother were added to the list. Why not Father George Clements?
Cardinal Cupich must immediately add Father George Clements’ name to the Archdiocese of Chicago website list of credible sexually abusive clergy.
What
A Zoom press conference demanding of Cardinal Blase Cupich that he place the name of Father George H. Clements on the public website list of credibly accused Archdiocese of Chicago clergy.
