Religious leaders charged with letting predator molest children, Pennsylvania attorney general says

They knew who he was, and yet they put him in a place where he was like a kid in a candy store,” victims' attorney Richard Serbin said.  Three leaders of a Catholic-based religious order in Pennsylvania face felony conspiracy charges for allegedly allowing a friar -- an accused child predator -- to continue his work and molest numerous additional children in the course of his duties, authorities said Tuesday.
Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane filed the charges against the leaders of the Franciscan Friars, Third Order Regulars -- identified as Giles A. Schinelli, 73; Robert J. D'Aversa, 69; and Anthony M. Criscitelli, 61.
