It’s Not the Crime, It’s the Coverup that Eventually Comes Back to Haunt You 0

(Link fixed.)

The worst aspect of priestly abuse amongst the Catholic priesthood was not the abuse. It was bad and worse, but not worst.

You will find sickos in every profession, though they are more noticeable when their career choice entails publicly scolding others for their behavior.

The worst aspect was that management not only failed to stop it, but also covered it up for decades.

Now a jury has hit management where it hurts: in the budget:

A jury awarded abuse survivor John Vai $30 million in damages for the childhood sexual abuse he suffered at the hands of defrocked priest Francis DeLuca today, and found that St. Elizabeth’s Parish was grossly negligent in its failure to supervise DeLuca in the late 1960s, and should pay at least $3 million of that damage award.

Sometimes, eventually is a long, long time, but eventually it arrives.
