BUFFALO, N.Y. “Get your hands off my grandson.”
Attorney Steve Boyd says those words were fired at then-Auxiliary Catholic Bishop Edward Grosz at a reception celebrating the grandson’s confirmation. The event was in Genesee County in 1990.
Boyd says the grandmother and other family members, “did not know the extent of what had gone on.”
