Vatican could compensate victims of ex-Dominican ambassador

The Vatican on Saturday signaled its willingness to compensate the victims of its former ambassador to the Dominican Republic, who died before going on trial for sexually abusing young boys.
Spokesman Rev. Federico Lombardi was asked by a Dominican reporter covering Pope Francis’ trip to Cuba about the possibility of compensating the victims of the late Jozef Wesolowski, who was the Vatican’s ambassador to the Caribbean nation before he was recalled as a result of the scandal.
