In the news - Archbishop Philip Wilson becomes world's most senior Catholic charged with concealing child abuse ...

Former Hunter priest Adelaide Archbishop Philip Wilson has become the most senior Catholic clergyman in the world to be charged with concealing a child sex abuse allegation against another priest on what a Hunter paedophile priest victim has described as "a Saint Patrick's Day we'll never forget" .... He is one of only a handful of Catholic clergymen in the world to be charged with concealing a child sex allegation against another priest ...

The church under Pope Francis has done nothing about holding bishops and cardinals who have covered up sex abuse accountable ... Finn, though convicted, has never been even criticized by the Vatican, much less removed, and men like Mahony (Los Angeles Cardinal Hid Abuse, Files Show), and Law (How the Boston Globe exposed the abuse scandal that rocked the Catholic church), and Brady (Irish cardinal refuses to quit amid court case over paedophilia 'cover-up'), though known to have covered up abuse, have also gone uncriticized and unpunished by the Vatican (an abuse victim asked Francis specifically to remove Brady, but he demurred: Irish abuse victim tells Pope she wants Cardinal Brady removed).
