I wouldn't say the priests busted for molesting young boys are on a line of succession from the apostles...

You don't seem to grasp the concept, do you? Even the Apostles themselves sinned, why would you think their successor would be without flaw?

Indeed - we see this illustrated in the Bible when Jesus renames Cephas to Peter, institutes his Church, and then a few minutes later calls him Satan. All humans sin, even those the closest to Christ.
