Another one ... Vatican 'fights' to distance Pope from abuse scandals

These titles are so bogus. It's not "fighting" and "fury" to state facts and correct the hysterical trumped up distortions that the MSM lives for.

First, the priest in question was merely given housing while "accused" (innocent until proven guilty?) but was NOT in ministry and the 'housing' was psychiatrically based. And then add this ...

After learning more about this case, I realize that the analysis above is not quite accurate, and the effort to implicate the Pope is even more far-fetched than I had received. The accused was not a priest of the Munich archdiocese, but a priest from the Diocese of Essen, who had been sent to a facility in Munich for counseling. So the then-Cardinal Ratzinger was not responsible for his treatment; his only connection with the case was his decision to let the priest stay in a rectory in the Munich archdiocese while he was undergoing treatment there. There is no evidence that the Pope was aware the accused priest was an accused pedophile; he was evidently informed only that the priest had been guilty of sexual improprieties, and probably concluded that he was engaged in homosexual activities with young men.

Thanks, I missed that one.
