Our former priest was given charge of our parish with our bishop knowing full well that he had molested children in New York in the past. The bishop's only safeguard was to assign a priest from the neighboring parish to live in the same house and that priest was rarely there. Before he came to our parish they sent him to Africa. These orders are following the same MO as our bishops did until the public scandal.
I'm glad the younger, newer Bishops seem to be handling things a better way, by not allowing them to get to the same point! Many of these young Bishops are having to clean up the messes left by the TOMs (Tired Old Men) before them.
