Hurrah! They're sending the bastards to Riker's instead of to some cushy place like St. Luke's in Maryland. Maybe the Bishops are sincere about zero tolerance.

Zero tolerance will depend on the bishop. Some will be extremely reluctant to comply except under pressure imo.

I will mention it again but I don't have good documentation. I think I read it on unity publishing website, but there was a priest in California who went to the authorities and really pissed off the powers that be by so doing. He took a lot of flak. If true, that priest practiced heroic virtue in my book.

I'm disappointed that so many priests "in the know" haven't, for whatever reasons, thrown protocol to the winds and been more outspoken about the problem before now. I would have expected a few to have come forward and blown the whistle before the media jumped on the bandwagon.
