Redacted Husch Blackwell Report
On September 27, 2022, the ACNA released the final report from Husch Blackwell’s investigation into alleged mishandling of abuse allegations in the Diocese of the Upper Midwest. The final report included unredacted details of alleged sexual abuse. Husch Blackwell’s failure to redact these details was compounded by the fact that the victims had declined to participate in the investigation because of concerns over confidentiality. Numerous people privately and later publicly contacted the ACNA to inform them of these errors and to request proper redaction. The ACNA removed the report from their website four days later and posted this announcement noting the report's removal.
