A handful of protesters gathered outside the Catholic Chancery
Wednesday and delivered a letter asking Lincoln Bishop James Conley to
remove embattled Bishop Robert Finn from his post as chaplain for the
School Sisters of Christ the King convent.
The protesters, two of whom represented SNAP -- the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests -- say Finn violated the trust of Catholics and broke the law when he failed to report allegations of child abuse by his priests during his tenure with the Catholic Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph. They say he should be defrocked and not retain the power or prestige associated with the title of bishop.
