Madam, – Veronica Frawly (April 6th) stated that 90 per cent of child abuse takes place in a family setting outside the church.
While this may be the case, if found out, perpetrators are prosecuted to the full extent of the law and not “moved” to continue their abuses elsewhere. I think this is the real issue surrounding the litany of abuses emanating from the Catholic Church, insofar as many of the abusers were almost facilitated by the church.
I imagine, if anyone discovered that the “company” they were working for was a haven for paedophiles, they would resign and report all knowledge of crimes to the authorities, and I suggest that Ms Frawly’s “Good Priests” do the same.
– Yours, etc,
