Victim: Bishop tapped for higher post enjoyed watching abuse | The Chronicle Herald

This appointment is a mistake. A BIG mistake. No one who has had a credible allegation made about them should be appointed anywhere as a bishop. The fact that three separate victims all claim that this priest watched as they were abused by his superior should be sufficient to erase his name from consideration to run ANY diocese. Period.


In this day and age, any benefit of the doubt must be given to the Church - meaning if there's even the slightest doubt that a candidate for the episcopacy might be compromised in these scandals, he should be rejected out of hand.


I love Pope Francis and believe he is a true gift for the Church. But I believe he's made a big mistake with this appointment in Chile - even if he personally believes that this candidate isn't personally guilty of what is alleged by the victims of his former superior.
