Abuse of children is always appalling and unforgivable. There's an added layer of disgrace to the crime when the perpetrators abuse not only children but their own authority and religious power. Such was the case with the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth at the St. Thomas-St. Vincent Orphanage in rural Kentucky, where more than a dozen nuns, a resident priest, and several other male employees routinely abused the boys and girls in their care. Richardson, who was raised in a Catholic orphanage in Kentucky in the 1960's, recounts the horrors that she nad countless other children endured there.
