Wouldn’t there be criminal prosecutions for state employees that hid destroyed the evidence collected over the years for such abuses?

No. also, the statute of limitations on these crimes was over decades ago. By the time a child grows up and can do anything about it - it is too late.

Yes, state employees would have had the book thrown at them, too, when the statute of limitations hadn’t expired. There are plenty of teachers being caught having sex with students every day in public schools as it is. It’s easy to do a search on it, as some get posted here.

For an institution to cover it up when it has the information in hand, as the Catholic church has done, is criminal.

When local administrators first covered it up, when it got out to the next level, the press and the rest of us find out. In the Catholic church, the press never found out because the next level was the diocese, which covered it up. When that became too much to hold back, the Vatican found out, and they sat on it, as proven by the documents brought before the Irish court.

The Catholic church is a cesspool of corrupt leaders leading generally decent people.
