For Immediate Release

VOTF Statement Regarding
Bishop Daniel Reilly's Withdrawal
of SNAP Subpoena

Newton, Mass. - September 23, 2002 Voice of the Faithful is pleased that Bishop Daniel Reilly has withdrawn the request for records from the Survivor's Network of Those Abused by Priests. However, it is unfortunate that a spokesman for the diocese indicated that they can't guarantee a similar request won't ever be made in the future. This still leaves the door open to adopting a dangerous policy capable of inflicting additional pain on victims and survivors of clergy sexual abuse.
