Syracuse Roman Catholic Diocese Bishop Robert Cunningham, on left,
listens as Onondaga County District Attorney William Fitzpatrick talks
at a news conference Oct. 28, 2015 in Binghamton, N.Y. On the right is
Oswego County District Attorney Greg Oakes. The diocese reached an
agreement with seven district attorneys in Central New York to
immediately notify them if they suspect a priest or diocese official of
sexually abusing a child.
Bishop Robert Cunningham took an important step toward reconciling with his flock last week when he agreed to immediately report allegations of sexual abuse against priests or other religious workers to the civil authorities.
