Church Sex Abuse in Alaska Continued Despite Eyewitness

"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.
