A list of names and you buried it.
Actually had my eyes closed, by the way
Actually thinking he has a shot of winning this thing?
All the guarantee is that abuse stays under wraps.
Alright
Alright, call me after yo do
Alright?
And butcher the story.
And have you settled cases against Father Shinley?
And he can bury it.
And he said he could only get me a small settlement, so..
And I attach them to my motion.
And I want you to know that you'll have...
And if you're not happy, you can kill it.
And legal acts is aside, Ben, I mean...
And no one did a thing.
And that's when I have him.
And the Church dismissed the claim.
And these guys are predators, Robby.
And thing went on from there.
And you think this documents are...?
Anyone picking The Globe?
Are you married?
Aren't you saying none of them?
At St. John the Baptist in Haverhill.
At the National Conference of Catholic Bishops.
Barry Liam, I can't read this, look for Liam Barry there
Because when I call Benzevich in to give a deposition...
Bigger? I don't know what that means.
Bradlee. Yeah. Ok
But he has no problem helping...
But I never felt gratified myself.
But if you don't mind me asking... Do you?
But now you got a secret together.
But the trial Court of ruling...
But then he backed out and he shelved it.
But they said that they weren't interested.
But we don't have a choice, Robby.
But we got to go with this now.
But, Robby here has known Stewart...
C'mon. 5 minutes.
Call down the power of God on the Globe.
Can I help you?
Can you tell me specifically what happened?
Can you tell me where and how you fooled around with these boys?
Canellos started a pool of 10 bucks to get in.
CATHOLIC CHARITIES GALA Guest List
Cause we're writing one of them.
Come on in
Confirming all those priests?
Couple of weeks?
Darling, who are you talking too?
Deep background, but he's a solid source.
Did you see him again after that?
Dilemmas Robby and a friend.
Does Jack Dunn work for the school?
Don't be sorry. It's ok Joe, it's ok.
Donna Morrissey says she calls with quote from Law hours ago.
During the Porter investigation, he'd literally...
Even if I've been involved in those cases...
File a motion and Sweeney will..
Find any cases he settled against the Church.
For guy like Geoghan, goes after boys, not because he prefers them...
From my friends.
Fuck!
Geez, I'm sure you don't. Listen, listen Mitch.
Get this upstairs
Gives me something else to focus on.
Go and have dinner with Hansi.
Good question.
Guy breaks down.
Having said that, Cardinal Law and...
He doesn't live here any more.
He offers to take me to get icecream.
He said all we have to do is...
He said one of the victims father...
He wasn't here.
He's obviously been through a lot, but he's smart and...
He's part of a victims organization.
He's wearing over the goddamn newsroom.
Hey by the way, I've been reading about this priest...
Hey Mitch, please.
Hey.
Hi there, I'm Sacha Pfeiffer, with The Boston Globe
Hi.
His hand just... slides right up and...
Hola Mitch, how you doin'?
Holy shit!
Holy shit! Robby?
How about you?
How do you think that's gonna play down front?
How many members are in your organization Phil?
How many of these cases you've been involved with?
I actually really liked going to Church when I was a little kid.
I asked you to write me that motion Bill,
I do.
I don't know, Jim.
I don't wanna say who,
I find that the city flourishes...
I guess it doesn't matter.
I had 20 priests..
I have always been fascinated with the newspaper business.
I hope I'm not late. Phil told me 1 o'clock.
I just got so angry.
I just talked with Phil, he said Macleish...
I know.
I like to think it already is
I mean they be idiots not to.
I never even told my wife.
I shouldn't talk about this shit.
I talked to Sipe.
I think it's safe to assume so, but..
I think Robby is wrong.
I thought you should see it first.
I thought you were watching a game, Steve.
I vote yes
I want to be clear, I never ****d anybody.
I want you to stay focused on the victims right now.
I was close with the Everist brothers,
I... just got a call from Cardinal.
I'll book the flight now and go straigth to the courthouse tomorrow
I'll get to him, I just need more time.
I'm just saying, we did.
I'm just watching the game. Omerta.
I'm more concerned about the phones at reception.
I'm not asking if the PD is lying, I know they're lying
I'm not writing a profile here, I'm working on something bigger.
I'm out of time, Jim.
I'm sorry about it.
I'm working on it.
I've been talking to you so long I didn't eat lunch
If I had been President then, I would have known.
If it came from the top down? Yes.
In Boston alone.
It is. Especially...
It really needs to stand alone.
It really pisses me off.
It takes the village to abuse one.
It's a major First Amendment victory.
It's a real kick in the ass
It's a shitty feeling.
It's every priest in Massachusetts.
It's like God asking for help.
It's not a class action, you should get your facts straight.
It's not the whole story
It's really good
It's safe to say we were all raised catholic, but now...
Jesus. Should be Manning on the ball in field.
Jimmy says he could be back this year,
Joe, I think that the language is going to be so important here.
Just get your shit out of here, alright?
Just like Geoghan and Porter. I think there's a pattern.
Just melted down my arm
Just wrap up whatever you're doing...
KIDS. Stay away from this house at 276 Pelton Street.
Let me talk to the couple of victims.
Let's keep it that way.
Like Eric Macleish?
Like who, a priest?
Listen to me.
Look it...
Look Mike, the Church wants us to believe that..
Look.
Looks like the Church bought him an ....
Major abuse scandals have been uncovered in the following places:
Marty, in past Spotlight's had success in large part ..
Matt wants to put the letters online, so that the readers...
Maybe I should tell The Herald that story.
Mitch, it's Mike. I've been trying to reach you.
Most reverend John M. Darcy...
Mr. Macleish, are you familiar with the priest named Paul Shinley?
New boss coming in to make some cuts?
No freaking way.
No one wants to read about kids getting ****d by priests.
No, but his knowledge on this is on a whole other level.
No, but I got a cousin in Queens...
No, he is...
No, I wouldn't do that without asking.
No, rode the bench in college. Yeah.
No, that's for Mike
No, the meetings weren't really about that
No, we are not doing a story on the Church.
No, we should set that aside for now. Listen.
No. It's not.
No. Who is he?
Nobody wants to admit this kind of thing, so..
Not directly, no.
Nothing on Shanley either, Sacha.
Now, you know I'm bringing this up to you...
Occasionally the Church would bring in another defence attorney to help out.
Of the priests that Saviano mentioned
Oh, yeah. Good idea, buy a round. I'll be right back.
Ok. And did you know that you were gay at that time, Joe?
On refiling... Hold on?
Once you refile, they're public.
Only 50% of the clergy are celibat
Our argument to make this documents public rest...
Our family is rooted in the Church.
Over few bad apples.
Over the seven boys in our family...
Pete's a bigger lump, but I called Bill directly...
Phil you know why we were taking off of this story...
Phil, what's a treatment center?
Really? Why?
Receiving some kind of therapy.
Reduced to just weekend work while...
Related to this problem.
Religion counts for a lot.
Rezendes needs time to write the story.
Richard...
Robby, you know I can't tell you that.
Ruling against the Church.
Said he's on sick leave.
School across the street from The Globe.
Ser, I'd just like to ask a few...
She's the one who introduced me to Father Shanley.
She's thrilled. And...
Shit.
Sick Leave
Sick leave
Sick leave isn't the only designation...
Since when?
So I sent you guys...
So I was probably a few years after you, right?
So if you need a moment, you've earned it.
So is it about spotlight?
So this guy wouldn't have to face charges
So when are you leaving?
So, am I first survivor you talk to?
So, this...
So, you did go and see a lawyer?
So..
So...
Some of my friends are, we all went to...
Something bugging you?
Sounds thin. What else you got?
SPECIAL REPORT SPOTLIGHT ARTICLE #1 GEOGHAN LETTERS
Sure
Sure, but how many victims...
Sure, right.
Take me to The Boston Globe on Morrissey Boulevard.
Thanks for calling.
That Eileen McNamara wrote about your suit.
That I'm going to take Father out of the parish...
That was in 1985
That was my first major finding.
That's all we're asking for.
That's right, and he has a long road ahead of him.
That's why I never got married.
The Cardinal is in the corner, if you're so inclined.
The Church protect dozens of dirty priests.
The Geoghan case? It's all in clips. Lis has this classed material.
The Globe, years ago.
The Nieman fellows, when I was at Harvard.
There was a lot of pressure to keep quiet.
They gave me a bunch of crap about it at the game.
They saw me as meddling outsider.
They told us you molested them, is that true?
They're part of the motioning file
Thinking might have been The Times then actually.
This is big.
This is Sacha Pfeiffer.
This was like God showing up, you know?
To a local paper, I think that at very least...
To be honest, these events aren't really my strong suit.
To cut a better deal.
Turns out he's been settling abuse cases...
Until one day he asks you to jerk him off or give him a blowjob.
Until we all get on the same page.
Use the directories so we identify bad priests.
Warning pedophile priests,
We covered Geoghan when the story broke 3 years ago.
We got cover up stories on 70 priests.
We got Law. This is it.
We got neighbours with kids.
We just put out a piece on a shouty..
We keep our work confidential.
We looked hard at Geoghan
We put him in the break room
We understand you've settled several cases against each of them.
We'll just be another moment Paul
We're not going away.
We're very proud of the work we do here at Boston.
Well we've now done multiple stories on 70 priests.
Well, at least they are sending us a guy from Miami to run things
Well, I can't discuss that with you either, c'mon guys.
Well, I started my psychotherapy fellowship there in 1965
Well, the Church is an institution, Mike.
Well, to put it this eloquently as I can
What about a Judge?
What the hell do you know?
What?
When he worked on religion.
Why would I ever do that?
Would be the Robby Robinson I've always...
Yeah, any allegation against Cardinal Law?
Yeah, Ben and Steve thinks it's a dead end
Yeah, but to be completely frank it wasn't enough.
Yeah, I guess.
Yeah, I helped defend this scumbags,
Yeah, she does.
Yeah, we don't like to rush it
Yeah, we'll print that story when we get it.
Yeah, what if it was for another priest, the one that hadn't been in the papers.
Yeah, yeah it is.
Yeah, yeah Patrick, I do.
Yeah.
Yeah. I'm working on a book.
You are not recording this, are you?
You can be a pain in the ass, Mike.
You don't mind if I take some notes, do you?
You don't sound like it.
You got a lot of people here respect you, Robby.
You have 8 days and 2 hours until deadline
You know I never even touched my icecream.
You want to sue the Church?
You were never one of us
You're going to give me their names...
You're gonna be in this shithole??
Your multiple sources...
5 years ago, but we didn't miss anything.
6% of all priests.
53% of them are catholic
87 priests in Boston.
249 priests and brother were publicly accused of sexual abuse within the Boston Archdiocese
An Auxiliary Bishop wrote that?
And bring Matt in if you need help. Ok.
And Law just ignored it
Beacon street. Beacon, ok.
call me tomorrow, I got to think about it. Thank you.
Can I talk to your supervisor?
Can I use your phone?
Couple months?
Depend on the Judge. And what parish he belongs to
Divorced? I don't think so, no.
Do you want a cup of tea, Sacha? I'm ok nana. Thanks.
For what? This is the goddamn story.
Here. Thank you.
Hey, hey, I need to get in there!
Hi Hansi. Hard day at work, Mike?
How do you mean? I mean she was nuts
I am, born and raised, yeah
I'm fine Mr. Rezendes.
I'm sorry. Please sit. No problem. Thank you.
It's a private mediation. So...
It's more complicated than that.
May I use your bathroom? Yeah, sure Phil.
Maybe you should've clarified it 5 years ago...
Mother's ballin' and the uncle is pissed off
Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you.
Nice work. Thanks.
Oh, yeah, hi. Hi. Thank you.
Ok, Peter. Peter Canellos, Metro.
Ok.
Phil Saviano. Ok, just a minute.
Right over here. Lets go, lets go.
Robby. Hi, it's me
Sacha Pfeiffer, from The Globe. Please, get off my porch.
Sure I can.
That's a hell of a precedent.
That's right, yeah. Well, see...
That's right. Thank you very much.
The Porter case? Remind me
They work for everything, these guys. Except belief.
This is how it happens isn't it, Pete? What's that?
This is the Geoghan case? That's right.
Those records are sealed.
Was it Eric Macleish? Yeah, that's him. Macleish
We didn't have all the pieces.
We got a lot of good stuff. Like what?
We had all the pieces.
We've met
When did you...? Couple of weeks ago.
Where are we on Geoghan?
Who said that? The lawyer told me that.
Why is that? Good catholic girl.
Wilson Rogers? Right.
Yeah, sure you are. Ok, well...
Yeah. So you give him to Ben.
Yes. We did. He's an extraordinary man.
You do know it's sunday, right? Couldn't get a tee time
You guys need anything else? Yes.
You know I'll not catch up with you, ok? Ok.
You know why? No.
You're dropping us. No.
...is always tough
...longer than most of you been alive
13? Yeah.
