The hotline established for reporting sexual abuse by Catholic priests in New Jersey is constantly busy.

“It rang maybe 10 times. ... It hung up and a message came up saying we’re unable to take your call,” said Joe Capozzi, who claims he was abused by his priest 50 years ago, when he was 11, CBS New York reported.
