CWN Editor's Note: Archbishop Gregory Aymond of New Orleans has insisted that he was unaware of widespread sexual abuse in the archdiocese in the past.
“Maybe I lived a naive life,” the archbishop said in an interview with the Times-Picayune, responding to reports that he was acquainted with many of the clerics who have been accused of abuse. Lawyers for abuse victims have claimed that the archbishop “worked, socialized, and/or lived with at least 48” of the accused priests.
