Over at Slate we have a report on sexual abuse of minors. It seems that Catholic Priests are not the only players in this game. Frankly, I believe we have no idea about what is going on here and that the emphasis on Catholic Priests has only obscured the larger problem. I would lay this at the feet of The Boston Globe, which thought it had a handle on this issue, but perhaps didn't.
Hat tip to The Instapundit.

This is one issue that the Catholics have no corner on. It goes on in all walks and professions....and is perhaps the most under reported crime there is. The whole thing over the priests got big traction because it was so scandalous.....but there are even larger scandals to be unearthed.
