Letter Dated April 22, 2003 from the Attorneys General of the States of New Hampshire, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island and Vermont to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Christine Todd Whitman Regarding the Hubbard Brook Research Foundation Report on Nitrogen Emissions.
This report is the final product of an intense investigation conducted by the New
Hampshire Attorney General’s Office (“AGO”) into the manner in which the Roman Catholic
Diocese of Manchester (the “Diocese”) handled allegations that priests committed sexual
assaults against minors – an investigation that established that the Diocese endangered the
welfare of children. The State’s investigation began in February 2002, when the Attorney
General’s Office (“AGO”) contacted representatives from the Diocese of Manchester to
inquire about the Diocese’s policy and practice regarding allegations of sexual misconduct by
clergy. That inquiry was prompted by news reports from Massachusetts regarding the
Archdiocese’s practice of reassigning priests after allegations of sexual abuse became known
to the Archdiocese.
