Ahhh.. the good old days at the Jesuit Curia , Rome.
Winners are grinners. Pope Francis having dinner at Jesuit Curia, Rome.
The Pope's latest analysis - This sex abuse thing is all just a "drama"
Roaming Free
There are currently at least FOUR Child Sex Abusers who were Jesuit priests at Xavier College walking around free and untroubled because the Jesuits won't do anything about them.
Some may be under police investigation.
Theo Overberg s.j. and Peter Beer s.j. & Celso Romanin s.j.
also Noel Bradford and possibly Richard Galbraith is still living.
Why?
How many sex abuse reports to the Police have not been investigated?
The Society of Jesus is legally able to keep details of sex abuse information secret. The Jesuits will not investigate their own priests.
And influential Catholics will not demand the release of sex abuse files.
And influential Catholics will not demand the cover-ups be investigated (Higgs is the only exception).
