Everyone knows about "presidential immunity" and "diplomatic immunity", but how many know about and understand "Catholic Priest Immunity"?
Over the course of the past several decades, how many Catholic Priest have been sentenced for child molestation and rape? How many have been convicted of "contributing to the delinquency of a minor" or "improper conduct with a minor"? How many Catholic altar boys have come forth with stories of molestation and rape in connection to Catholic Priest? And, of all those cases, how many Catholic Priest have actually been placed behind bars as a result? My guess is very few, even though I have read of some that have been convicted.
Why do we give them a free past, allow the Catholic church to "pay families off", or allow the Catholic church to simply relocate the priest to a different state? Would you or I be allowed such immunity or exemption from the laws?
What would you consider to be justice in such cases? Should they be allowed immunity?
