LinkLinksOpinion Washington Post Editorial Board: A D.C. Council member discloses he was the victim of sexual abuse and sets a powerful example By Editor On Mar 19, 2020 Last updated Mar 19, 2020 19 Share THE INDICTMENT last week of a former Catholic priest from Northern Virginia on a charge of sexually abusing a minor more than 30 years ago might have attracted little notice. The news is dominated by the novel coronavirus, and, sad to say, reports of sexual abuse by Catholic clergy are not all that uncommon. But the disclosure by D.C. Council member David Grosso (I-At Large) that he was the victim put a face to this terrible crime that hopefully will encourage other survivors to step forward and seek justice. 19 Share FacebookTwitterReddItWhatsAppEmailPrint
