Church Sex Abuse in Alaska Continued Despite Eyewitness

Clip: Season 2011 Episode 7 | 2m 6s

Coming April 19, FRONTLINE examines decades of abuse of Native Americans in Alaska.

"The police were not called. Even when there was an eyewitness to the abuse," attorney Ken Roosa tells FRONTLINE in "The Silence," airing April 19. FRONTLINE examines a little-known chapter of the Catholic Church sex abuse story -- decades of abuse of Native Americans by priests and other church workers in Alaska.
