At Vatican, Cardinal O'Malley raises issue of bishop accountability in reporting sexual abuse, though Chilean bishop remains. Cardinal Sean P. O'Malley of Boston has reportedly made known to Pope
Francis, in the guise of bishop accountability, the concerns of members
of the Vatican's Pontifical Commission for the Protection of Minors
over the pope's appointment of a Chilean bishop who has been accused of
covering up abuse.
Clergy sexual abuse survivor Marie Collins, who will be the keynote speaker at the 2015 National Assembly of the Voice of the Faithful in Hartford on April 18, was one of three members who flew to Rome over the weekend to meet with O'Malley. O'Malley heads the Vatican commission and was in Rome for a meeting of the Council of Cardinals that advises the pope on reforming the Vatican bureaucracy.
