Demonstrators Seek to Publicize Sexual Abuse by Priests



A demonstration was held Monday outside of the Altoona-Johnstown Catholic Diocese office near Hollidaysburg.
 
The "Survivors network of those Abused by Priests,” also known as “SNAP,” say they organized the event to draw attention to child sexual abuse.
 
“SNAP” representatives are calling on Bishop Mark Bartchak to seek out abuse victims and also publicize the names of priests suspected of abuse.
 
The Cambria County District Attorney is currently investigating sexual abuse allegations lobbied against local priest, Father George Koharchik.
 
No criminal charges have been filed at this point in that case.
