Udklip fra "Press Release: Attorney General Shapiro Details Findings of 2-Year Grand Jury Investigation into Child Sex Abuse by Catholic Priests"
In the Diocese of Scranton (59 predator priests named), one priest, Thomas Skotek, raped a young girl, got her pregnant, and arranged an abortion. The Bishop, James Timlin, expressed his feelings in a letter: “This is a very difficult time in your life, and I realize how upset you are. I too share your grief.” The bishop’s letter was not sent to the girl. It was addressed to the rapist.
In the Diocese of Pittsburgh (99 predator priests named), a group of at least four predator priests groomed and abused young boys. They used whips, violence and sadism in sexually assaulting their young victims. One boy, not yet 18, was forced to stand on a bed in a rectory, strip naked, and pose as Christ on the Cross for the priests. They took photos of their victim, adding them to a collection of child pornography which they produced and shared on church grounds.

"2 yrs of investigating, a grand jury, 300+ sexually abusive priests & 1,000+ children who carry the burden as Survivors. For too long, the Church has shielded pedophiles, pushing their victims into the shadows."
- Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro
"Our investigation - the largest, most comprehensive report on Catholic child sexual abuse in American history - allows us to finally understand the systemic cover up by Church leaders."
- Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro
Grand Jury: “We need you to hear this. There have been other reports about child sex abuse w/in the Church. But never on this scale. For many of us, those earlier stories happened someplace else. Now we know the truth: it happened everywhere.”

Vatican child protection office criticised by Dublin archbishop https://t.co/C0ZdyvYxss via @IrishTimes
1/2 The Vatican statement on Pennsylvania report was better than those in the past.. What a pity they could not resist including the usual minimising "but" - but this is all historic everything is now fine, since 2002 and the new safeguarding reforms were implemented in USA

2/2 The Vatican saying the USA policy has “drastically reduced the incidence of clergy abuse” leaves a question. If they believe these norms are working WHY has every conference of bishops in the world not been made adopt them? If they believe they work it is negligent not to do
