Front-page news: The Baker scandal and cover-up

It's on the front page of today's Los Angeles Times, complete with color photo: An article (click on this post's title) about L.A. ex-priest Michael S. Baker getting a 10-year prison sentence for [homo]sexually abusing two altar boys.

He's been behind bars for two years and probably will serve just three years more. He's supposed to pay one victim $20,000 and he must register as a sex offender for the rest of his life.

The D.A.'s office says it is continuing to investigate Baker.

Cardinal Mahony today posted a brief statement on the Archdiocese's web site:
