Four Catholic priests or brothers have never faced justice for
sexually abusing children, despite the church accepting their guilt. The
Roman Catholic Church in New Zealand has, for the first time, revealed
the number of sexual abuse claims it has received, many of which are
still being investigated.
They show the number of people coming forward is growing every year, decades after they were abused. But few, if any, are resulting in fresh complaints to police. Victims have said that, even now, the church remains unwilling to dig into the darker parts of its past.
