Peterson: Spotlight still shining on clergy molestation

They stood quiet as church mice outside Oakland's Cathedral of Christ the Light. They spoke only to those passers-by who engaged them. Their presence was their message, and the message is that molestation of children by clergy didn't disappear with the final credits of "Spotlight."

In the past two months, lawsuits filed against the Catholic Church in Portland, Oregon, and Austin, Texas, have accused two priests who once worked at Catholic institutions in the Bay Area-- the Rev.
