Mitchell Garabedian: If it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a village to abuse one.
Mitchell Garabedian: He's one of the lucky ones. He's still alive.
Mike Rezendes: They knew and they let it happen! It could've been you, it could've been me, it could've been any of us.
Phil Saviano: I was eleven. And I was preyed upon by father David Holly in Wester. And I don't mean prayed for, I mean preyed upon.
Mike Rezendes: I know there's things you cannot tell people. But I also know there's a story here people will hear about it.
Mitchell Garabedian: I don't want you recording this in any way, shape or form. Nothing.
Mitchell Garabedian: I'm not crazy, they control everything.
Phil Saviano: How do you say "no" to God, right?
Ben Bradlee Jr.: NINETY fucking priests... in Boston!
Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Guys, listen. Everybody's gonna be interested in this.
Mitchell Garabedian: If it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a village to abuse one.

Mike Rezendes: They knew and they let it happen! It could've been you, it could've been me, it could've been any of us.

Ben Bradlee Jr.: NINETY fucking priests... in Boston!
Cardinal Law: If I can be of any help, Marty, don't hesitate to ask. I find that the city flourishes when its great institutions work together. Marty Baron: Thank you. Personally I'm of the opinion that for a paper to best perform its function, it really needs to stand alone.
Mike Rezendes: Mitch, are you telling me that the Catholic Church removed legal documents from that courthouse? Mitchell Garabedian: Look, I'm not crazy, I'm not paranoid. I'm experienced. Check the docket. You'll see. They control everything.
Mitchell Garabedian: I'm Armenian. How many Armenians do you know in Boston ? Mike Rezendes: Steve Kurkjian, works at the Globe... Mitchell Garabedian: Oh. That's two. You should get a prize or something.
Mike Rezendes: Do you still go to mass? Richard Sipe: No, I haven't been to church for some time now but I still consider myself a Catholic. Mike Rezendes: How does that work? Richard Sipe: The Church is an institution, Mike, made of men. It's passing. My faith is in the eternal. I try to separate the two.
Mitchell Garabedian: I already talked to the Phoenix. Mike Rezendes: Yeah, there's a reason I didn't see it. Nobody reads a Phoenix anymore... they're broke, they don't have any power. The Globe does. If we cover the story, everybody will hear about it. Mitchell Garabedian: The Church thinks in centuries, Mr. Rezendes. Do you think your paper has resources to take that on? Mike Rezendes: Yeah, I do. But if you don't mind me asking... Do you?
Eric Macleish: Most of these folks, they just want some acknowledgement... of what happened. We got them a sit down with the Bishop and... a little dough, and that's the best they can hope for. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Well, certainly, the best that priest could hope for.
Eric Macleish: I already sent you a list of names. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: What are you talking about? To whom? Eric Macleish: The Globe. Years ago. After the Porter case, I got plenty of calls. I had twenty priests in Boston alone, but I couldn't go after 'em without the press. So I sent you guys a list of names, and you buried it. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: I want those names tomorrow. Eric Macleish: Check your god damn clips, Robby.
Mitchell Garabedian: Three years ago I get a call from an ex-priest, Anthony Benzovich. He was at Blessed Sacrament back in '62, and he saw Geoghan... Mitchell Garabedian: ... taking little boys up to the rectory bedroom. So he's appalled, all right? And tells the bishop about it. The bishop threatens to re-assign him... to South America. Mike Rezendes: Jesus. Mike Rezendes: Yeah. So, fast forward thirty-five years. Benzovich reads that Geoghan has been charged with molesting hundreds of kids. So, he feels guilty. He calls me. Mike Rezendes: So, you have testimony of a priest telling his superiors about Geoghan in '62? Mitchell Garabedian: No, I do not. Because when I call Benzovich in to give a disposition, he comes in with a lawyer. Mike Rezendes: Wilson Rogers! Mitchell Garabedian: Right. And suddenly, Father Benzovich has a very foggy memory. Can't remember anything. He's useless. So, I go back to work, I forget about it, whatever. Until about a year ago, I find an article about a priest who warned church officials about Geoghan. Mike Rezendes: Benzovich went to the press? Mitchell Garabedian: Yeah. Local paper, Patriot-Ledger. Nobody saw it. But now I got Benzovich on record. So, I file a motion to depose Benzovich a second time. And Wilson Rogers, that smug son of a bitch, files a motion opposing my motion. And that's when I have him. Mike Rezendes: Have him how? Mitchell Garabedian: Rogers opposes my motion, so I have to make an argument as to why I'm allowed to depose Father Benzovich a second time. Okay? But this time, I'm allowed to attach exhibits. You follow what I'm saying? Mike Rezendes: The sealed documents? Mitchell Garabedian: Yes! I can attach the sealed documents that I've gotten in discovery, Mr. Rezendes, the same documents your paper is currently suing for. Mike Rezendes: You're shitting me! Mitchell Garabedian: What? No, no, I'm not shitting you! So, I pull out the fourteen most damning docs, and I attach them to my motion. And they prove everything. Everything! About the church, about the bishops, about Law... Mike Rezendes: And it's all public! Because your motion to oppose Rogers' motion... Mitchell Garabedian: ...is public, yeah. Exactly. Now you're paying attention. Mike Rezendes: So, I can just walk into that courtroom right now and get those documents? Mitchell Garabedian: No, you cannot. Because the documents are not there. Mike Rezendes: But you just said they're public. Mitchell Garabedian: I know I did. But this is Boston. And the church does not want them to be found. So, they are not there.
Phil Saviano: Look, I get it. No one wants to read about kids getting raped by priests, especially now. But you asked a lot of people to re-live some very painful experiences... Sacha Pfeiffer: Phil, you know why we were taken off of this story. Phil Saviano: ...and-and... and you just disappear. It's been six weeks since 9/11. Sacha Pfeiffer: I realize that, and we're gonna get back to it. Phil Saviano: When? You're doing the same thing you guys did last time. Sacha Pfeiffer: No. Phil Saviano: You're dropping us. Sacha Pfeiffer: No. Phil Saviano: Maybe I should tell the Herald that story. Sacha Pfeiffer: Okay, Phil, you go ahead and do that. It'll undo all the work we've done, but I can't stop you. Listen to me. I am here because I care. We're not going away. We're gonna tell this story. We're gonna tell it right. We just need a little more time. That's all we're asking for. Phil Saviano: Why bother asking? You're gonna do what you want anyway. You always do.
Mike Rezendes: Holy shit. Matt Carroll: Robby. Sacha Pfeiffer: That's three off Sipe's estimate. That's incredible. Mike Rezendes: Robby. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: How many? Matt Carroll: 87. Mike Rezendes: 87 priests in Boston. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Call Macleish. I wanna talk to him.
Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Has anyone ever said no to a drink with you, Pete? Pete Conley: Well, sure. But the trick is to keep asking.
Sacha Pfeiffer: Does Jack Dunn work for the school? Walter 'Robby' Robinson: No, he's PR for Boston College. They call him when they need help. Sacha Pfeiffer: And Pete Conley, why-why was he there? Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Good question. Pete's a big alum. But I called Bill directly and I asked for a sit-down. I never mentioned anybody else. Sacha Pfeiffer: It's like everybody already knows the story. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Yeah. Except us. And we work right there.
Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Look, I'm close to stories on 70 priests. We nail that, along with those letters, this is proof that this is bigger than Law. It's the whole system. Marty Baron: You have multiple sources confirming all those priests? Walter 'Robby' Robinson: On some. I can get more. Ben Bradlee Jr.: Too risky. If we're not buttoned up on every single one of them, the Church will pick us apart. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: I think I can get us someone from the other side of the aisle. Ben Bradlee Jr.: Somebody inside the Church? Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Yeah. A lawyer. Marty Baron: Will he go on the record? Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Deep background. But he's a solid source.
Mike Rezendes: Robby, it's incredible. Law knew about Geoghan for years, no question. There's a letter to Law from a woman, Margaret Gallant, who lived in Jamaica Plain in the early '80s when Geoghan was there. Listen to this. "Our family is rooted in the Church. Our desire is to protect the Holy Orders, even in the midst of our agony over the seven boys in our family who have been violated." Seven, Robby. Seven boys. "It was suggested we keep silent. We did not question the authority of the Church two years ago. But since Father Geoghan is still in his parish..." But she sent it to Law and Law did shit. Here's another to Law, same year. Listen to this. "A word on the recent assignment of Father Geoghan as an associate at St. Julia's in Weston. Father Geoghan has a history of homosexual involvement with young boys. I understand his recent departure from St. Brendan's may be related to this problem. I wonder if Father Geoghan should not be reduced to just weekend work while receiving some kind of therapy. You know how grateful I am to you for your constant concern. Sincerely yours in our Lord, Most Reverend John M D'Arcy, auxiliary bishop of Boston. December 7, 1984." Matt Carroll: An auxiliary bishop wrote that? Mike Rezendes: Right. Sacha Pfeiffer: That's incredible. He broke ranks. I mean, w-when did Gallant write her letter? Mike Rezendes: 1984. Sacha Pfeiffer: And Law just ignored it? Matt Carroll: How do you ignore that freaking letter?
Ben Bradlee Jr.: 90 fucking priests. In Boston? Walter 'Robby' Robinson: That's what he said. Ben Bradlee Jr.: If there were 90 of these bastards, people would know. Mike Rezendes: Maybe they do. Ben Bradlee Jr.: And no one said a thing? Mike Rezendes: Good Germans? Ben Bradlee Jr.: I don't think that's a comparison you want to make publicly.
Cardinal Law: If I can be of any help, Marty, don't hesitate to ask. I find that the city flourishes when its great institutions work together. Marty Baron: Thank you. Personally, I'm of the opinion that for a paper to best perform its function, it really needs to stand alone.
Mike Rezendes: Mitch, are you telling me that the Catholic Church removed legal documents from that courthouse? Mitchell Garabedian: Look, I'm not crazy; I'm not paranoid. I'm experienced. Check the docket - you'll see. They control everything.
Mitchell Garabedian: This city, these people... making the rest of us feel like we don't belong, but they're no better than us. Look at how they treat their children. Mark my words, Mr. Rezendes: if it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a village to abuse one.
Phil Saviano: I was eleven, and I was preyed upon by Father David Holly in Wester. And I don't mean prayed for, I mean preyed upon.
Mike Rezendes: Do you still go to mass? Richard Sipe: No, I haven't been to church for some time now, but I still consider myself a Catholic. Mike Rezendes: How does that work? Richard Sipe: The Church is an institution, Mike, made of men; it's passing. My faith is in the eternal. I try to separate the two.
Mitchell Garabedian: I already talked to the Phoenix. Mike Rezendes: Yeah, there's a reason I didn't see it - nobody reads a Phoenix anymore. They're broke; they don't have any power. The Globe does.

Eric Macleish: Check your goddamn clips, Robby.

Mike Rezendes: But you just said they're public. Mitchell Garabedian: I know I did. But this is Boston, and the Church does not want them to be found. So, they are not there.
Middle Age Priest at St. Peter's: So, the other day I was on the World Wide Web. Anything you want to know, it's right there. Now, I have to admit that as a priest, this makes me a little nervous - should I be worried about job security? Middle Age Priest at St. Peter's: I don't think so. You see, knowledge is one thing, but faith... Faith is another.
Sacha Pfeiffer: Does Jack Dunn work for the school? Walter 'Robby' Robinson: No, he's PR for Boston College. They call him when they need help. Sacha Pfeiffer: And Pete Conley, why-why was he there? Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Good question. Pete's a big alum. But I called Bill directly and I asked for a sit-down - I never mentioned anybody else. Sacha Pfeiffer: It's like everybody already knows the story. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Yeah. Except us. And we work right there.

Sacha Pfeiffer: And Law just ignored it? Matt Carroll: How do you ignore that freaking letter?
Mike Rezendes: You're not gonna believe it. Garabedian gave me a tip. Some of the sealed docs are already public. They're part of a motion he filed. He said they're the best of the bunch. We don't have to wait for Sweeny's ruling. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: So, we can get them? Mike Rezendes: Yeah, but they're not there. Already talked to Albano. He said all we have to do is a file a motion, and Sweeny will order Mitch to re-file the docs. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: And you think these documents are... Mike Rezendes: He said these fourteen docs are all we need. They're huge. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Okay. I'll call Ben. Good work.
Walter 'Robby' Robinson: I'm out of time, Jim. We've got cover-up stories on 70 priests. But the boss isn't gonna run it unless I get confirmation from your side. Jim Sullivan: Are you out of your mind? Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Come on. This is our town, Jimmy. Everybody knew something was going on, and no one did a thing. We gotta put an end to it. Jim Sullivan: Don't tell me what I've gotta do.
Marty Baron: These are substantial. They... they clearly show that Law was negligent. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: I need more time. I wanna keep digging. Ben Bradlee Jr.: For what? This is the goddamn story. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: It's not the whole story. Ben Bradlee Jr.: Tough shit. We're on a clock now. Even if we don't run Sweeny's ruling, another paper could find these letters and fuck the story. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Agreed. But we run these letters alone, Law apologizes, says it's a one-time thing. He can bury it. Marty Baron: How? These clearly show he knew and did nothing about it.
Walter 'Robby' Robinson: When we do run the story, uh, I'm gonna need a comment from the cardinal. Pete Conley: We'll talk again later. Good night, Robby.
Jack Dunn: I graduated in 1979, and I had no idea about any of this. So if you're suggesting that Father Gibbons and Father Callahan had in any way... Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Gibbons and Callahan. I mean, they ran this place like the Navy. You really think they didn't know? Jack Dunn: It's a big school, Robby. you know that. A-And we're talking about seven alleged victims over, what, eight years? Walter 'Robby' Robinson: No, we're talking about, you know, seven that we know about. Jack Dunn: This is ridiculous. You're reaching for a story here... Principal Bill Kemeza: Jack, Jack, Jack. If I had been president then, I would've known. Jack Dunn: Bill, I'm not sure that's relevant... Principal Bill Kemeza: Why do you think they sent Talbot up to Cheverus? You know they wanted him out of town. Pete Conley: Robby, as well-intentioned as Bill's remarks are, I'm hoping we can keep this between us until we all get on the same page. Walter 'Robby' Robinson: Is that why we're here, to get on the same page?
