Pope Benedict XVI failed to act over complaints during the 1990s about a priest in the US who is thought to have abused some 200 deaf boys, victims say.
Full story:

Not a supprise to me, their a bunch of sickos
Not surprising.....and to repeat the OP's link,it seems, in my opinion, the Catholic church has tried unsuccessfully for years to suppress this abuse by their priests.
Another instance:

This is ONE of the issues I see wrong with this church's teachings, remaining celibate.
An outrageous and stupid requirement, when the basic instinct of humans is to reproduce.
First thing to do is get all those men
OUT OF DRESSES and
allow them to marry.... FEMALES and have offspring.
Next, go after the church officials involved in this unconscionable Sexual Abuse COVER UP that has existed for decades. In a manner of speaking, and in my opinion, the church has sanctioned this abuse and all those who perpetrated this outrage, should suffer the consequences, as the law is supposed to provide.
