A high profile case in Boston has fueled an explosion of accusations against priests and charges of a cover-up. We'll talk about the culture of the church and how it's responding to the allegations. Trish Anderton talks with Michele Dillon, Professor of Sociology at the University of New Hampshire www.unh.edu, and David Finklehor, Professor of Sociology and Director of the Crimes Against Children Research Center at UNH www.unh.edu and with Cardinal Bernard Law's Commission for the Protection of Children.
