Analysis: Two Years After McCarrick Investigation Began, Report Not Yet in Sight

As we approach two years since the investigation into the former archbishop of Washington, D.C., many Catholics are waiting for the report to be released.

DENVER, Colo. — On October 6, 2018, the Holy See announced a review of its files and archives pertaining to Theodore McCarrick, the former Archbishop of Washington, D.C, who is now laicized and living in disgrace, a known sexual abuser who has offered no public words of repentance.

Since the Vatican’s investigation began:

—The longest government shutdown in U.S. history began and ended.

— Lori Loughlin, TV's beloved Aunt Becky, was arrested, charged, tried, convicted, and imprisoned for bribing her daughters’ way into college.

— Notre Dame Cathedral caught fire, burned, and is now being rebuilt.

— Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, had a baby, quit the royal family, moved to L.A., and signed a deal with Netflix.

— A global pandemic swept across the globe, locked down nations for months, crippled economies, and killed more than 1 million people.

In the same timeframe, here's what has not happened: The publication of the Vatican's report on Theodore McCarrick, his rise to power, those who aided him, those who looked the other way, and those he harmed.

The report, by many accounts, is completed. It has been rumored frequently to be on the verge of publication. But it remains unpublished.

I still don’t get why the school officals who took Loughlin’s money get to skate. Well, actually I do.

Even with the expected whitewashing of the facts, the report is probably worse than anyone thought. They’re probably hoping they can bury it until everyone forgets about it.
