"A condemnation from Pope Francis" The idiot Pope was part of the problem. The Catholic Church is going to go bankrupt. Good riddance. It's the most moronic and most disgusting cult ever invented.

New York and New Jersey began investigations into whether Roman Catholic institutions had covered up the sexual abuse of children by priests.

Attorneys general in Illinois, Missouri and Nebraska also announced that they intend to investigate sex abuse by Catholic priests in their states.

The inquiries come weeks after an explosive report detailing the abuse of children in dioceses across Pennsylvania, drawing outrage from Catholics worldwide and a condemnation from Pope Francis.

“Victims in New York deserve to be heard as well — and we are going to do everything in our power to bring them the justice they deserve,” New York’s attorney general, Barbara Underwood, above, said in a statement.
