“Pope Francis has been accused by a former top Vatican official of covering up sex abuse in the Catholic Church for years.

I believe this is technically something of a repost of this thread, but it deserves attention. Vigano has come out with a number of testable hypotheses that deserve to be investigated, if only because of the likelihood that the perpetrators he names, as well as others, may still be molesting new victims, not to mention the likelihood that disclosure (and incarceration, not to mention civil damages) may provide valuable closure to victims.

Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
