Dennis C. Vacco quoted in The Buffalo News’ article regarding the participation of Retired Auxiliary Bishop in funeral Mass and NYS Attorney General’s office lawsuit against the Buffalo Diocese.
“Should he be criticized if it was a family member for concelebrating a funeral Mass? I would say Bishop Trautman in his life was pretty close to him, as close as a family member,” said Vacco, who represents Grosz in the state Attorney General’s Office lawsuit against the Buffalo Diocese and its retired bishops over an alleged coverup of clergy abuse cases.
