I went to a private Catholic college, but unfortunately I was never molested by a nun. If Sister Norma Giannini had been teaching at my school though there is a better than likely chance I would have gotten felt up too! I write this because sister Giannini, a 79 year old nun, has been sentenced to a year in jail for the sexual assault of two boys who came out in 1996 accusing the nun of abusing them.
As unfortunate as this is, I can’t help but read news stories about people like her and feel enraged. I can’t remember the last time I got through the day without reading or hearing about somebody in a position of power who is supposed to be taking care of our children, doing the exact opposite and hurting them. Not being the kind of person who gets off on little children I have absolutely no idea what is going through these people’s minds, but it seems like it would stand to reason that there has to be some sort of indicators that things like this are happening. Really though, this is just getting sick.
