The Maryland Attorney General's office released a report on Wednesday alleging that Catholic Church officials in Baltimore had engaged in a coverup of sexual abuse of at least 600 children over six decades. The investigation found that 156 Catholic clergy members and others had abused the children, and the number of victims is likely far higher. Attorney General Anthony Brown said the report "reveals the truth of what happened" and has been met with shock and outrage from the public. The Archdiocese has promised to take steps to ensure that such abuse never happens again.
