Brother of Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI in spotlight over choir abuse

MORE than 200 children may have been abused, some sexually, by adults working with a Catholic children’s choir run by the brother of Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI.
German lawyer Ulrich Weber said the 231 alleged victims included 50 who made “plausible” claims of sexual abuse at the Regensburger Domspatzen boys’ choir and two associated boarding schools between 1953 and 1992.
