Upon learning of the allegation last week, diocesan officials immediately filed a report with Child Protective Services and law enforcement. The priest was immediately removed from all public ministry when the Diocese of Dallas learned of the allegation.

Well that’s a nice change from the last decade. At least this diocese is actually reporting the predator instead of covering it up; way to finally clear the lowest possible bar!

Yeah it sounds like this report was actually handled properly at least.
