BALTIMORE — Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown said his office on Monday sent a judge the proposed redactions for its report on Catholic clergy sexual abuse, meeting the deadline to do so.
The redacted names, which many number more than 200, include individuals who are living, are accused of abuse, or hiding, enabling, assisting in the cover-up of abuse, or protecting abusers from the consequences of their actions, and whose identities were revealed as a result of a grand-jury subpoena, according to a statement from Brown.
Baltimore Circuit Judge Robert K. Taylor will review the proposed redactions before he gives his approval to make the report public, according to his Feb. 24 order. It is not clear how long Taylor will need to review the report before he gives the OK to release it.
