A lot of these cases that have come to light in Pennsylvania happened decades ago. The Church has made strides over the years to purge this. The problem is, old cases are still being discovered. It’s part of the purge.
I would love to believe that this is true. Where is your proof?
They’re only purged because the priestophiles died of old age.
I was cornered by a pedophile priest at the age of 10. I was fortunate enough to to get pulled away from him by a friend who happened upon my predicament.
Yes - it was a long time ago - but our local diocese didn’t invite us to report the abuse until a “hotline” was established the early 2000s.
So I reported it.
The pedophile was a missionary priest from India - so (I was told) he was “reported” to the corresponding bishop in India.
Now I have no way of knowing where it went from there - the pedophile is dead now - but when I can find that a hospital wing was named in his honor, and a celebration occurred when his bust was unveiled - no one must’ve taken the reports very seriously.
The situation is happening now. Wait until what’s been going on in New Jersey comes out. McCarrack has been working that territory for 30 years. He has had a beach house where seminarians have been invited every weekend - 5 invited every weekend but only 4 guest beds. That is just the tip of the iceberg.
