Boston Globe News: The Boston Globe; Twitter @TheBostonDeal: The late Father Charles Murphy was gravely scarred by a false accusation of sexual abuse, writes Boston Globe columnist Brian McGrory. Father Murphy was cleared of the charge after an investigation, but the experience left deep scars.
McGrory’s emotional column highlights the injustices that are suffered by priests who are falsely accused. Yet the lawyer who represented the man accusing Father Murphy still insists that the charge was accurate, and complains that the archdiocesan investigation was a whitewash.

There is a gross inconsistency when the call for public identification of every accused priest, whether or not there is convincing evidence of guilt, is coupled with a plea for sympathy on behalf of a priest who is wrongfully accused.
