    US bishop says he has "profound remorse" and offers his "heartfelt apology" to sexual abuse victims by Roman Catholic clergy

    A Pennsylvania bishop named in a grand jury report on rampant sexual abuse by Roman Catholic clergy says he has "profound remorse" and offers his "heartfelt apology" to the victims


    Speaking at a mass of forgiveness, Harrisburg Bishop Ronald Gainer opened by reading the first paragraph of this week's stunning report that said more than 300 predator priests had abused more than 1000 children in six Pennsylvania dioceses.

    Forty-five of the priests named in the report served in the Harrisburg diocese. The first paragraph of the nearly 900-page report said the grand jury knows the truth: that child sex abuse within the Catholic church happened everywhere.
