Spotlight on clerical child sex abuse

Last evening RTE screened 'Spotlight'.

It tells the story of clerical child sex abuse in the diocese of Boston, including the church cover-up and the behaviour of the late Cardinal Law.

At one stage in the film a victim of one of the priests visited the offices of the Boston Globe newspaper.

The team kept repeating questions he asked. He was surprised with their behaviour. They explained they were simply trying to clarify what he was saying.

He said:

"Maybe you should have clarified this stuff when I sent it to you five years ago."
