The musical Wicked asks a question about the nature of evil. “Are people born wicked? Or do they have wickedness thrust upon them?” But does Wicked get it right?

Sacrificed is a survivor's eye view of the Catholic sex abuse crisis that picks up where SPOTLIGHT left off, answering the question, "And then what happened?" Hosted by survivor Chris O'Leary, Sacrificed explores his efforts to get help from the Archdiocese of St. Louis, the Catholic Church, and the Pope. Efforts that, despite the PA grand jury report and VOS ESTIS, proved fruitless. It's a story many Catholics won't want to hear, but must be told. Because, if the Catholic Church can do what it's done to survivors, what else can it justify doing? Rationalize? To innocent children most of all.
