#1 Since 1950. Then it's probably a very low estimate.

named 'most prolific known clergy' abuser

If I didn't know the context I woulda thought he stalked and raped the most popular and beloved religious figures around Colorado.

#2 Racketeering organization, like the Mafia.
The Church hierarchy should be prosecuted using the RICO statutes.

#3 However, get a judge and a pediatrician to agree then its not 'sexual abuse'. It's 'legal'.

#6 Looks like theses were almost all in the 1960s and 1970s, and covered up in the 1980s. Right when the liberals started talking hold of the church with left wing philosophy and hippie-fying the mass. People Like the current Pope.
