*accused* not conviction or admission.

Where are the Catholics screaming about false accusations and how it can ruin a man’s life, like they do when it’s a Catholic priest being accused?

Actually, all six of the cases I posted were criminal prosecutions, which are vanishingly rare among the Catholic sex-abuse cases. The standard of proof for a criminal indictment is much higher than the standard of proof for a lawsuit. Of course, he did confess his crime... like most of the Protestant cases I posted.
