Boston Mayor Marty Walsh says the death of Cardinal Bernard Law makes for a sad day for victims of clergy sex abuse. The mayor spoke with reporters hours after learning that Law had died in Rome, Italy. He says his first thought when he heard Cardinal Law had died was of the abuse victims and how Law’s death will force them to relive their pain.
