Accused Priests?

The Spokane Diocese Sex Abuse Review Committee meets this week, and could decide to turn over to authorities the names of several priests accused of sexual abuse.

Bishop William Skylstad told a group of parishioners earlier this month that five names have surfaced, linked to 12 sex abuse allegations. But so far, the only name revealed, is that of Patrick O'Donnell, who is linked to 18 incidents while he was a Spokane area priest in the 1970's.

The Spokane Diocese was named just this week in a second lawsuit filed in connection with the sex abuse scandal.
