You need to do a bit more reading on this event. This is not just what the Vatican says it is what news reports say and it is what researching the facts will reveal.
And in 1995 CDF had no standing in abuse cases unless their was any abuse of the sacrament of confession. The Vatican curia that had responsibility for abuse cases which were forwarded to Rome (not all were.) was the Congregation for Clergy.
And you must have missed the statement of the Vicar General in the case which item by item lambasted the mistaken reporting of this incident and the corrections he offered.
You also manage to ignore the fact that the Bishop of the Diocese had authority over this priest and could have at any time suspended any minsterial activity (which he did) without waiting for Vatican input.
But as usual your Anti-Catholic bigotry does not permit inteference by any facts.
"Mistakes were made." Same old/same old.
However, the euro stops at Ratzinger's desk.
The tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully. Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah." -- Psalm 52:1-3"Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endureth continually.
