Letter: Expose identified priests

By Larry Flindt, Vancouver
Published: February 10, 2016, 6:00am

In response to Cheryl Thomas’ Jan. 25 letter “Disclosure unfair to accused,” she seems upset by the fact that the priests identified as sex offenders were named in The Columbian. The priests who committed those acts and are still living should have gone to trial and if convicted should be locked up.

She should be more upset for the boys who were molested. What would her attitude be if one of her boys were molested by priests?
