The Intercept: Kamala Harris, surrounded by thousands of cheering supporters, kicked off her presidential campaign in Oakland earlier this year, declaring that she has always fought “on behalf of survivors of sexual assault, a fight not just against predators but a fight against silence and stigma.”
Harris specialized in prosecuting sex crimes and child exploitation as a
young prosecutor just out of law school. But when it came to taking on
the Catholic Church, survivors of clergy sexual abuse say that Harris
turned a blind eye, refusing to take action against clergy members
accused of sexually abusing children when it meant confronting one of
the city’s most powerful political institutions.
