Pope Francis, the Vatican, and the Sexual Abuse Scandal in the Catholic Church (15+ articles)
Pope Francis has ignored credible charges made by Abp. Vigano that he was aware of high-level Cardinals, Archbishops and Bishops involvement and cover-up of the sexual abuse scandal within the Church. He consistently protects accused priests and bishops while ignoring and even attacking sexual abuse victims. Supporting articles:

Clerical sexual predation must be ended, once and for all.”
