Viganò: Journalists Must Ask What Happened to ‘Cache of Documents’ Benedict Gave to Francis

ROME, August 30, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) – Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò has spoken out from an undisclosed location in response to attempts to discredit his 11-page testimony implicating Pope Francis and several senior prelates in coving up Archbishop Theodore McCarrick’s abuse of seminarians and priests.

In an interview this week with Aldo Maria Valli, an Italian journalist who helped Viganò plan the publicatin of his statement, the former U.S. Nuncio pushed back on claims that he was motivated by revenge. Instead, he insists he spoke out because “the corruption has reached the top levels of the heirarchy of the Church. ” He also asks journalists why they are not investigating what happened to the “cache of documents” that Benedict XVI delivered to Pope Francis after his election, documents which may confirm the allegations made in his testimony.

Here below we publish a LifeSite translation of the interview with Archbishop Viganò, which originally appeared on the blog of Aldo Maria Valli.

Those of us “who know” know that whomever tries to obfuscate the Vigano report - they are showing their hand.

Truly it will be a miracle if the Vatican produces anything, but good and holy men will have their own documents and copies.

In the end, only God will make correction. How severely remains to be seen, as He separates the goats from the sheep at all levels of His One, Holy and apostolic Church.

The Pope will resign in the end or the Catholic Church as we know it is over.

Genesis 3:15 (Douay Rheims) “...she shall crush thy head, and thou (satan) shall lie in wit for her heel.”
