Eleven current or former French bishops have been accused of sexual abuse, the head of the French bishops’ conference said Monday.
“One doesn’t get to those kinds of levels without there being significant problems at the very top,” said Hiner, who said abuse accusations against “people at the highest levels of the Catholic Church” have proliferated.Last year’s independent commission report in France gathered more than 6,000 testimonies, including from victims and witnesses, and several cases were forwarded to law enforcement officials.
Moulins-Beaufort said Monday that at least some of the accused bishops will be or have been investigated by state authorities, along with parallel church investigations. But in cases where the window of prosecution has closed, internal probes are the only options.“It can be rather opaque,” said Hiner, criticizing cases in which bishops were punished by the church “but without much information given to parishioners and the public as to why.
