Utter Disgust at Some of Your Reviews

Warning: Spoilers
"All these other people suddenly started remembering things after a lot of media exposure, yet none of them have anything remotely factual to add in the end." You obviously did NOT watch the entire documentary. ONE person began remembering things, Jane Doe. She came forward, then she gave courage to more victims to come forward. None of the other victims had suppressed memories; unfortunately, they had been too afraid to come forward. And Jane Doe never claimed a cent. Did you listen to that part, too?

You do not realize "the times" and the authority that Catholic priests had in the community. We are talking late 1960's here. Imagine revealing you were sexually abused by priests and cops to a nun and the next day, that nun has disappeared? And a priest with a psychiatric degree that has an office at the school, a collection of guns, was chaplain to the police, who had a best friend who was a policeman and a brother(!) who was the police lieutenant...what the heck was the purpose of a priest being employed at an all-girls school? He became out of control and the Archdiocese of Baltimore kept covering it up, kept transferring from parish to parish...did you WATCH all of the documentary?

"One lady for example assumed her deceased husband surely must have been involved because allegedly he came home with blood on his shirt one night. She didn't have any reason other than that." Well, he wasn't going to his job. The bills were piling up. Where was he going? Why did he come home covered in blood on the exact night Sister Cathy went missing, a date coinciding with the day before their premature baby was due to be released from the hospital? There is a LOT more to it...his proximity to Sister Cathy's apartment complex, his assignments from Maskell to go out and "collect girls" plus his possible involvement in the disappearance murder of another girl. The filmmaker only had so much time to address it all. See http://baltimore.cbslocal.com/2017/02/08/baltimore-nun-murder/ and additional interviews featured there. The husband literally "covered" his tracks by purchasing new tires. Or just google search and educate yourselves.

I am so SAD for all of these victims and so astonished at some of you IMDb.com reviewers' reactions to walk over the victims and assume they were doing this for money! Watch the documentary, all of the episodes; listen and learn. The police "allegedly" lost the proof in "the flood" (Hurricane Agnes). Give me a freaking break. Did you miss that part? Proof went missing! Sadly, most of the victims are dead, in mental institutions or on drugs, had abortions or raised the bastard children of "Fathers" Maskell and Magnus.

The filmmaker of this documentary was brilliant; he showed much compassionate and respect to some very brave women who are still fearful for their lives to this very day, just for speaking out. Revealing the corruption of the Archdiocese of Baltimore & the Baltimore City police, apparently fell on some deaf ears and blind eyes.
