Last week I wrote about a victims’ rights group that was railing against Southern Baptist Convention leaders for failing to crack down on child molesters. They claimed that their complaints were met with silence from SBC leaders.
According to the Baptist Press, the group has offered an apology:
A child sexual molestation victims’ group apologized to Southern Baptist leaders Feb. 22 for making false accusations that leaders had not responded to the group’s letters. . .
“We said the SBC hadn’t replied to us, and we were wrong,” Clohessy said in the statement. “I have no idea how this happened, and I’m terribly, terribly sorry. I’m very upset and embarrassed by this and deeply apologize to the convention for our mistake and for our erroneous comments to the press about the lack of reply.”
Go read the rest of the Baptist Press report. It’s quite illuminating.
