    States move to change professional licensing systems after @AP revealed that dozens of priests credibly accused of sex abuse still held licenses to teach and counsel children.http://apne.ws/3GLa2Ki

        These crooked priests should be ministering to their parishioners from prison or death row.

        So all it now takes is an accusation to ruin a life. No convictions. Just remember, mob rule works both ways.

        Several of the paragraphs say “credibly accused” which means there was an investigation & accusations were found to be credible. The article also contrasts convicted priests. These are children, I think background checks need to at least be considered.

        Yet journalists credibly accused of journalistic misconduct are still allowed access to sensitive locations.

        I am far more concerned with the fact that lawyers and judges who have been credibly accused to misconduct - that is, the accusation does not violate the laws of space and time - are still allowed to practice and are not immediately disbarred.

        Well, lets talk about public school teachers. There was an anonymous credible accusation against a local public school teacher - she was in fact the teacher of the child so it was credible - and she was not immediately fired and her license revoked.

        Like wolves stalking caribou herds, pedophiles most often work within the institutions where their prey resides.
