UN Report Blasts Catholic Church for Systemic Child Abuse Coverups

UN Report Blasts Catholic Church for Systemic Child Abuse Coverups

On Wednesday, the UN's Committee on the Rights of the Child blasted the Vatican for being more concerned with avoiding scandal than addressing clergy child abuse and refusing to cooperate with law enforcement. The UN panel demanded the Catholic Church immediately remove clergy known or suspected of child molestation and report them to authorities. The Holy See defended itself following the publication of the report.
