'The Keepers' The sexual abuse at prestigious Catholic high school 1969

THE KEEPERS on NET-FLIX. (Season 1 Episode 2). Jean Hargadon was called, “Jane Doe” because she was afraid to be known as the teen girl who was forced to be quiet. She was shown the dead body of Sister Cathy Cesnik in 1969. Cathy was going to reveal secrets about the high school where she was a teacher. The Catholic Archbishop-Keough school was prestigious and strict. The “Word” of the top priests were "Law" among the students. 

Jean went to confession and admitted she was sexually abused in her home. A priest took advantage of that confession and he abused her in therapy. She was made to believe that it was all her fault. Another priest called her a “whore.” They made her think that only they could save her. Jean was raped to help them feel good. They told her it was normal so she would get closer to God’s forgiveness.  

The priest’s yielded power and enormous ego. Sister Cathy, knew what was going on behind closed doors. She was murdered before she could speak out about the male priests. Jean was then forced to look at Cathy’s dead body to shut her up. Father Joseph Maskell was the Chaplain at the school. How far did the sexual abuse go? Did Father Maskell murder Sister Cathy?
