22: 1975 Maskell Abuse Reported

from Who Killed Sister Cathy? Hosted by Shane Waters, Gemma Hoskins

We continue to unravel the web of secrecy surrounding Father Joseph Maskell. Following the previous episode's interview with Sean Caine of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, we turn our focus to the heart of the controversy: the timeline of abuse allegations against Maskell. Contrary to the Archdiocese's official records citing the 1990s as when accusations first surfaced, compelling new evidence suggests a history of reports dating back to 1975 that were seemingly dismissed or lost within the institution's bureaucracy. This episode examines what the Church knew, when they knew it, and raises critical questions about institutional accountability and the deliberate suppression of victim accounts spanning decades. Who Killed Sister Cathy? is an ongoing investigation into the unsolved murder of Sister Catherine Cesnik. Subscribe and follow for new episodes.
