Personal de CNA, 17 de junio de 2025 \/ 10:37 a. m. (CNA).<\/p>\n

El gobierno de Nueva Jersey podr\u00e1 reunir a un gran jurado para investigar las denuncias de abuso sexual por parte del clero en ese estado, dijo el lunes la Corte Suprema estatal.<\/p>\n

En en un fallo un\u00e1nime<\/a>, la Corte Suprema de Nueva Jersey dijo que un tribunal inferior se hab\u00eda equivocado al sostener que el estado no pod\u00eda convocar al jurado, y el alto tribunal declar\u00f3 que el gobierno \u201ctiene derecho a proceder con su investigaci\u00f3n y presentar pruebas ante un gran jurado especial\u201d.<\/p>\n

El tribunal inferior hab\u00eda dicho en parte que cualquier hallazgo del gran jurado podr\u00eda ser \u201cfundamentalmente injusto\u201d porque cualquier sacerdote acusado en \u00e9l carecer\u00eda de la capacidad para impugnar adecuadamente las acusaciones.<\/p>\n

Pero la Corte Suprema dijo que correspond\u00eda a los jueces decidir si alg\u00fan informe cumpl\u00eda con las normas legales vigentes. Los tribunales \u201cno pueden decidir ni deciden la cuesti\u00f3n fundamental de antemano\u201d, se\u00f1al\u00f3 el fallo.<\/p>\n

La decisi\u00f3n del tribunal se produce poco m\u00e1s de un mes despu\u00e9s de que la Di\u00f3cesis de Camden, Nueva Jersey, dijera que abandonar\u00eda su lucha contra los esfuerzos del estado para convocar al gran jurado.<\/p>\n

El obispo de Camden, Joseph Williams, dijo el mes pasado que ten\u00eda la intenci\u00f3n de \u201chacer lo correcto\u201d<\/a> por las v\u00edctimas de abuso. La Di\u00f3cesis de Camden hab\u00eda estado envuelta en una lucha de a\u00f1os con el estado por la posible convocatoria del gran jurado.<\/p>\n

El abandono de la lucha por parte de Williams se produjo apenas unas semanas despu\u00e9s de que asumiera el obispado all\u00ed el 17 de marzo.<\/p>\n

La di\u00f3cesis hab\u00eda argumentado previamente, en parte, que Nueva Jersey \u201cno puede convocar a un gran jurado para presentar una acusaci\u00f3n a menos que aborde asuntos o condiciones p\u00fablicas, censure a funcionarios p\u00fablicos o llame la atenci\u00f3n sobre condiciones inminentes\u201d. Las acusaciones de abuso por parte del clero de hace a\u00f1os no cumpl\u00edan con estos est\u00e1ndares, hab\u00eda dicho la di\u00f3cesis.<\/p>\n

En una carta en el Catholic Star Herald el mes pasado, Williams dijo que era \u201cnuevo en ser obispo diocesano y nuevo en los complejos argumentos legales y procedimientos involucrados\u201d en el caso en curso. Antes de su nombramiento el 17 de marzo, se desempe\u00f1\u00f3 como obispo coadjutor de la Di\u00f3cesis de Camden.<\/p>\n

Un gran jurado fue famoso por ser convocado en Pensilvania de 2016 a 2018 para investigar denuncias de abuso en m\u00faltiples di\u00f3cesis de ese estado.<\/p>\n

Ese informe, publicado en agosto de 2018, revel\u00f3 denuncias de abuso contra m\u00e1s de 300 sacerdotes que involucraban a m\u00e1s de 1,000 ni\u00f1os en el estado.<\/p>\n

Al comentar sobre esos datos, los juristas dijeron en su informe<\/a>: \u201cCreemos que el n\u00famero real \u2014de ni\u00f1os cuyos registros se perdieron, o que tuvieron miedo de presentarse\u2014 es de miles\u201d.<\/p>\n
