If he was abusing them at 15 he was not a pedophile he was a homosexual.
He wanted them young, but post pubescent that is not pedophilia.
The lie, to this very day, that church continues to deny is the fact there is a homosexual cabal within the Catholic Church... they trade sex and protect one another and are a big reason so much was covered up.
For to truly look into the sexual improprieties within the church would expose them.
The laity are largely unaware.. some diocese are almost completely run by homosexuals and anyone who stands up to them is driven out.
It is my firm belief that Pope Benedict was pushed from the papalcy because he directly challenged this Cabal, grossly underestimating just how large and entrenched and how far they would go to protect it.
It is clear to me that the current Pope is part of this Cabal or completely compromised by it.. his reinstatement of a known and confessed predator removed from office by Benedict as one of his earliest acts, and refusal to discuss it is evidence of this.
Until the Church is willing to admit that this whole afffair is not simply a solo affair of sexual child predators, but a larger cabal of homosexuals that have entrenched and are killing the church from within, nothing will truly change.
A full 2/3 of all victims were post pubescent boys... the church doesn’t have a pedophile problem, I rates of true pedophilia among its ranks are actually lower than the general population... it doesn’t. Have a celibacy problem, priest have access to sex, (and not strictly sodomy with each other)and if you think otherwise, you are naive... it has a homosexual problem. The decisions in the 60s to allow admitted but “non practicing” homosexuals to enter the priesthood, is the root of this... and refusing to admit it means nothing will change.
I know all about the homosexual cabal in the seminaries and elsewhere in the church. That's where this all began.
But this particular priest targeted his victims from a young age, usually 7 or 8 when he began insinuating himself into their lives on a very personal and family level. I think he waited until they were 15 or 16 for legal reasons - he could challenge the dates of the abuse, claim it was consensual and avoid jail, which is exactly what happened.
His name was (still is) Peter Cheplik. Here is at a birthday party for one of his victims. I know the kid in the photo (he's about 50 now), I knew all the kids who came forward as victims.
