I recently read something in my parish’s bulletin saying that our diocese was getting investigated by the Attorney General for sex abuse.

With this announcement, Wisconsin will join at least 22 other states that have launched investigations into sexual abuse by Catholic clergy and others in position of leadership.

But I can't find a list of which states are getting investigated currently.

Are there new allegations of sexual abuse that Catholics should know about or is this just the same stories as before being rehashed?
