The Time Is 12:24 18 THE VIDEOGRAPHER: The time is 12:24. 12:24:26 19 This is Cassette 2 in the deposition of 12:24:59 20 Cardinal Law. We're on the record. 12:24:59 21 Q Cardinal Law, just so the record is clear, 12:25:02 22 before you left as vicar general of Jackson, 12:25:06 23 Mississippi, you had had this conversation with 12:25:11 24 Father Broussard; is that correct? 12:25:14 105 1 A That's correct. 12:25:14 2 Q And you took no action to notify the 12:25:15 3 individuals at St. Peter's Parish that you can 12:25:19 4 recall at this time; is that correct? 12:25:21 5 A That's correct. 12:25:25 6 Q And did you also know a Father Thomas Boyce? 12:25:25 7 A I did. 12:25:28 8 Q And was Father Thomas Boyce also an individual 12:25:29 9 who came to your attention as a priest who had 12:25:33 10 molested children in Jackson, Mississippi, when 12:25:36 11 you were serving as vicar general? 12:25:39 12 A I don't have an active recall of that, but if 12:25:43 13 you bring the case before me, I might -- it 12:25:46 14 might come to light. 12:25:49 15 Q I don't have any case to bring in front of you. 12:25:52 16 I'm just asking whether you have -- your memory 12:25:54 17 might be refreshed between now and the time we 12:25:58 18 come back, which is fine. 12:26:00 19 A Yeah. I don't recall something that would 12:26:02 20 have -- I don't recall -- I don't have the 12:26:07 21 impression of Father Thomas Boyce as someone 12:26:11 22 who was responsible for the sexual abuse of 12:26:13 23 minors. 12:26:17 24 Q Well, I'm not asking for responsibility. I'm 12:26:17 106 1 asking whether you're aware -- let me make the 12:26:20 2 question a little bit broader. Are you aware 12:26:22 3 of any inappropriate or boundary violations 12:26:24 4 that were committed by Father Thomas Boyce 12:26:27 5 against children while you were serving as 12:26:30 6 vicar general? 12:26:33 7 A Yes. And I have no active recollection of 12:26:34 8 that. 12:26:36 9 Q Fair enough. 12:26:36 10 Now, did you ever speak with Dr. Morrison 12:26:39 11 about this conversation that you had with 12:26:47 12 Father Broussard where he told you that he had 12:26:51 13 engaged in some inappropriate activity, 12:26:54 14 including boundary violations with the Morrison 12:26:59 15 children? 12:27:03 16 A I don't know that this answer will suffice to 12:27:07 17 your question. 12:27:10 18 Q Sure. 12:27:10 19 A But allow me, if I may, and I must say that I 12:27:11 20 have not thought of this for decades, so that 12:27:17 21 I'm trying now to reconstruct what may have 12:27:22 22 occurred. 12:27:28 23 I recollect, in a very vague way, 12:27:33 24 receiving the knowledge that George Broussard 12:27:37 107 1 had been confronted by -- and perhaps 12:27:44 2 "confronted" is too strong a term in terms of 12:27:53 3 how it occurred -- by Dr. Morrison with regard 12:27:56 4 to inappropriate behavior with one or more of 12:28:00 5 Dr. Morrison's sons; and that Dr. Morrison, and 12:28:09 6 I presume Mrs. Morrison, had satisfied 12:28:22 7 themselves that Father Broussard was adequately 12:28:27 8 dealing with this problem, and that he was 12:28:39 9 not -- and that he did not present a further 12:28:43 10 risk. 12:28:46 11 Now, that's my -- that's my recollection. 12:28:47 12 And I believe that that information came to me 12:28:52 13 through Broussard, but it could have come to me 12:28:58 14 through Dr. Morrison. It's conceivable that 12:29:01 15 Dr. Morrison met with me as well. My 12:29:04 16 recollection is that whatever occurred was 12:29:08 17 dealt with in a way that was satisfying to the 12:29:13 18 Morrisons. 12:29:19 19 Q Yet you also are aware, are you not, Cardinal 12:29:20 20 Law, that there were allegations subsequently 12:29:24 21 brought by other individuals about improper 12:29:28 22 sexual misconduct by Father Broussard? Are you 12:29:31 23 not? 12:29:33 24 A I am not aware of that. 12:29:34 108 1 Q You're not aware of any individuals alleging 12:29:36 2 that their children committed suicide as a 12:29:39 3 result of sexual molestation by Father 12:29:43 4 Broussard? 12:29:46 5 A I am not aware of that. 12:29:46 6 Q So as I understand it, and now -- I think you 12:29:48 7 said before the break that you thought that 12:29:50 8 this came -- that this information came from 12:29:53 9 Father Broussard himself. I take it after 12:29:55 10 reflecting on it, it could have come from 12:29:58 11 either Dr. Morrison or from Father Broussard? 12:30:01 12 A Or it could have come from both. 12:30:03 13 Q It could have come from both? 12:30:06 14 A Yes. 12:30:08 15 Q It's your testimony and belief -- and I want to 12:30:09 16 give you time to think about this between now 10:09:25 17 and the time we reconvene -- but it's your 12:30:13 18 understanding right now that essentially you 12:30:15 19 considered the matter closed because the father 12:30:16 20 of the Morrison children felt that there was no 12:30:18 21 more risk posed by Father Broussard. Is that 12:30:21 22 your testimony? 12:30:23 23 A That's correct. 12:30:24 24 Q And what qualifications did Dr. Morrison have 12:30:24 109 1 to make the assessment that Father Broussard 12:30:32 2 was no longer a threat to children that you 12:30:34 3 know of, Cardinal Law? 12:30:36 4 A Again, in retrospect, his area of medical 12:30:39 5 expertise would not have given him -- would not 12:30:45 6 have given him that kind of authority. But at 12:30:50 7 the time, and we're talking about 1970, 12:30:58 8 possibly -- 12:31:04 9 Q '73, I think. 12:31:06 10 A Well, '73, which is the year that I left, as I 12:31:07 11 think I said. I probably finished in November 12:31:13 12 of '73. So it was sometime before November of 12:31:17 13 '73. We're talking about November of '73, and 12:31:20 14 at that point, in a rather unsophisticated way, 12:31:29 15 I would have relied on the judgment of a parent 12:31:36 16 in this case. 12:31:42 17 Q The parent -- 12:31:43 18 A Who was a doctor. 12:31:45 19 Q The parent in this case -- he was not a 12:31:46 20 psychiatrist, was he? 12:31:48 21 A No. He was -- I can't remember what his 12:31:49 22 specialty was, but I'm quite certain it was not 12:31:57 23 psychiatry. 12:31:57 24 Q And you knew in 1973 that child abuse, I think 12:31:57 110 1 you said earlier, was a sin; is that correct? 12:32:02 2 A Certainly it was a sin, yes. 12:32:05 3 Q And -- 12:32:06 4 A But that wouldn't be dealt with by a 12:32:08 5 psychiatrist. 12:32:11 6 Q I know. It would be dealt with presumably by 12:32:12 7 the individuals in charge of that priest; is 12:32:15 8 that correct? 12:32:16 9 A No, no. Well, no. When I say -- if I may. 12:32:17 10 When I say that sexual abuse is a sin, what I'm 12:32:20 11 referring to is that it is an act against God's 12:32:25 12 law, and God's command, and one deals with that 12:32:31 13 as a Catholic through the sacrament of penance. 12:32:35 14 The scripture says judge not that you be not 12:32:41 15 judged. So that in terms of where a person 12:32:44 16 stands in relationship to God, it's not for me 12:32:47 17 to judge or for you to judge or anyone else to 12:32:51 18 judge.

  • Archbishop John J. Williams
    Record Group I.06.01 John Joseph Williams Papers, 1852-1907 Introduction & Index Archives, Archdiocese of Boston Introduction Biographical Sketch Scope and Content Content List (A-Z) Subject Index Introduction The John Joseph Williams papers held by the Archives of the Archdiocese of Boston span the years 1852-1907. The collection consists of original letters and documents from the year that Williams was assigned to what was to become St. Joseph’s parish in the West End of Boston until his death 55 years later. The papers number approximately 815 items and are contained in 282 folders arranged alphabetically by correspondent in five manuscript boxes. It is probable that the Williams papers were first put into some kind of order in the Archives in the 1930s when Fathers Robert h. Lord, John E. Sexton, and Edward T. Harrington were researching and writing their History of the Archdiocese of Boston, 1604-1943. At this time the original manuscripts held by the Archdiocese were placed individually in folders and arranged chronologically in file cabinets. One cabinet contained original material and another held typescripts, photostats, and other copies of documents held by other Archives that were gathered as part of the research effort. The outside of each folder noted the author and the recipient of the letter. In addition, several letters were sound in another section of the Archives. It is apparent that these letters were placed in the Archives after Lord, Sexton, and Harrington had completed their initial arrangement of manuscripts relating to the history of the Archdiocese of Boston. In preparing this collection of the original Williams material, a calendar was produced.

  • Clergy Sexual Abuse: Annotated Bibliography of Conceptual and Practical Resources
    Clergy Sexual Abuse: Annotated Bibliography of Conceptual and Practical Resources. Preface The phenomenon of sexual abuse as committed by persons in fiduciary relationships is widespread among helping professions and is international in scope. This bibliography is oriented to several specific contexts in which that phenomenon occurs. The first context is the religious community, specifically Christian churches, and particularly in the U.S. This is the context of occurrence that I best know and understand. The second context for the phenomenon is the professional role of clergy, a religious vocation and culture of which I am a part. While the preponderance of sources cited in this bibliography reflect those two settings, the intent is to be as comprehensive as possible about sexual boundary violations within the religious community. Many of the books included in this bibliography were obtained through interlibrary loan services that are available at both U.S. public and academic libraries. Many of the articles that are listed were obtained through academic libraries. Daily newspaper media sources are generally excluded from this bibliography for practical reasons due to the large quantity, lack of access, and concerns about accuracy and completeness. In most instances, author descriptions and affiliations refer to status at time of publication. In the absence of a subject or name index for this bibliography, the Internet user may trace key words in this PDF format through the standard find or search feature that is available as a pull-down menu option on the user’s computer. The availability of this document on the Internet is provided by AdvocateWeb, a nonprofit corporation that serves an international community and performs an exceptional service for those who care about this topic.

    Office of the Attorney General Commonwealth of Massachusetts The Sexual Abuse of Children in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston A Report by the Attorney General THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL ONE ASHBURTON PLACE BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS 02108-1698 T HOMAS F. REILLY (617) 727-2200 ATTORNEY GENERAL www.ago.state.ma.us July 23, 2003 TO THE PEOPLE OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS The education, care and protection of our children are among the most important undertakings of our society. In the past one hundred years, we in the United States and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts have made great gains in how we protect our children - and our nation and state have been the better for it. It was with this single motivation - to protect children - that in January 2002, the Office of the Attorney General undertook to address the massive and prolonged mistreatment of children by priests assigned to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston; and it is with this single motivation that the Office of the Attorney General submits the accompanying report of what it did and learned. Throughout the history of the United States, the Catholic Church in America has been responsible for countless good works. Outside of government, it is probably the country’s foremost social services provider: feeding the hungry, caring for the old, the weak and the dispossessed, and fighting in the name of social justice. Its schools and universities have educated generations of children. And thousands of devout and honorable priests provide the Church’s followers with moral and spiritual guidance every day.

(CLINIC) faced growing demand for its traditional services and particular challenges resulting from the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The growth of the agency’s operational responsibilities was due in large part to the increase in the number and sophistication of CLINIC’s member agencies. By year-end, CLINIC supported 242 Catholic immigration offices, most of which handled a wide array of immigration cases. The need for quality legal representation for our nation’s historic population of immigrants increased during the year.
