flag Maryland Supreme Court blocks release of clergy names accused of abuse.

flag The Maryland Supreme Court ruled that prosecutors cannot disclose the names of clergy and officials accused of hiding or failing to report child sexual abuse in the Archdiocese of Baltimore if they were never criminally charged. flag The decision, released on April 27, reversed lower court rulings that had allowed the release of grand jury documents. flag The justices emphasized that grand jury secrecy protects uncharged individuals from reputational harm and that the public interest in accountability does not override the constitutional right to privacy for those not convicted of a crime.
