Fast on the heels of the news that a Bavarian boys choir directed by Pope Benedict’s brother was a hotbed
of physical and sexual abuse for decades, comes the allegation that
Cardinal Gerhard Müller covered up the abuse when he was the bishop of
Regensburg.
According to the National Catholic Reporter, the allegation is being made by the former head of the lay diocesan council in Regensburg, Germany, who said that Müller and a deputy “systematically” covered up the abuse, disbanded the diocesan council to thwart outside investigation, and installed at least one known abuser priest in a parish who then committed more acts of abuse.
