Chicago, IL, April 19, 2016 - The Child Maltreatment report from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Children's Bureau reports that upwards of 61,0000 cases of child sexual abuse have been reported in the United States in one year. This number does not include the thousands of children that are suffering in silence, afraid to come forward.

The Whole Truth exposes the breadth of the bias against the Catholic Church using the child sexual abuse dilemma in society as a means for headline news. An amazing and liberating story told by the most credible and unprejudiced source, Joe Klest, the attorney who has successfully obtained a $28 million jury verdict in one of the highest awards in a sexual abuse case. In Joe's research he has found that there is no statistical evidence that shows more abuse occurred in the Catholic Church than in any other institution or organization. The problem is similarly present across all religions, organizations or nationalities. The Whole Truth by Joseph Klest sheds light on the overwhelming reform that has transformed the Catholic Church into a blueprint for prevention and intervention of abuse. The steps you can take to protect your children from abuse and the legal recourse available if your child has been abused.

Based on the surveys and studies conducted by different denominations over the past 30 years, experts who study child abuse say they see little reason to conclude that sexual abuse is mostly a Catholic issue. 'We don't see the Catholic Church as a hotbed of this or a place that has a bigger problem than anyone else,' said Ernie Allen, President, National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

The famous "Spotlight” investigation by the Boston Globe wants us all to celebrate its "breaking” of the "Catholic” Abuse Scandal. The fact of the matter is that the Globe and the New York Times and other major media outlets have long been headlining abuse reports involving the Catholic Church proudly on page one, while instances in other religions and organizations received less moderate and standard coverage or no coverage at all. In fact, the full breadth of the problem has been little discussed and is much more far reaching than is presented to the public.

It seems that not a day goes by that the news reports another perpetrator who has been arrested in our schools, sports teams, camps or children's programs for sexual abuse of a minor. The Whole Truth sets forth facts that every person should know about sexual abuse in America, especially if you have kids. For people who practice the Roman Catholic faith, this is a must read. However, every parent in the country and the world should be made aware that everything we hear, read and see about sexual abuse against children is not always as it seems. The book is especially compelling when you consider the long time author's professional experience. He has no ax to grind, no predisposition, no prejudice regarding the subject matter. He came upon the astonishing facts presented in The Whole Truth in the trenches, helping victims of sexual abuse.
