79% Informative
Pope Francis had a troubled course on dealing with clergy sexual abuse.
Francis was elected history’s first Latin American pontiff in 2013 .
Abuse survivors and their advocates initially questioned whether he got it’ about abuse.
By mid-2018 , Francis had largely atoned for the Chile scandal, but then the next crisis hit.
Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano claimed he told Francis in 2013 that McCarrick had “corrupted a generation” of seminarians and priests.
Francis authorized a two-year investigation into the disgraced ex- U.S. cardinal.
The report largely spared Francis and found that he had failed in monitoring McCarick .
Francis holds the hierarchy accountable for covering up abuse and cover-ups.
