I thought I read that some of the priests had abused several boys over a period of years.
I suppose I'm saying it is a bit rich to arrest the Pope "after the fact", when the mechanisms we have to prevent or detect these crimes are woefully inadequate.
A (rather poor) analogy would be prosecuting a car manufacturer ten years after selling cars with faulty brakes, while the MoT tests failed to detect the fault.
