Several priests in prison for child sex abuse still being paid by Louisville Catholic church

They stand convicted of committing terrible sins, but pedophile priests are still being paid by the Catholic church in Louisville. "I think it's absurd," Michael Norris said. "I just don't understand it."
Norris is one of Fr. Joseph Hemmerle's victims, molested at age 11 at camp Tall Trees in Meade County in the 1970's.
"This man is who I was thought is an extension of God," Norris said. "That's what the Catholic church taught me. And here's God doing this to me. It really messes with your spirituality."
