Twenty-five French bishops covered up sexual abuse
of by 32 Catholic priests for years, an investigative website claims.
The abuse, which continued after 2000 when the church claimed to have
tackled the problem, affected 339 victims, it says.
The Mediapartwebsite
names all 25 bishops, five of whom were still in office in January, and
accuses Lyon's Cardinal Philippe Barbarin of having known about abuse
by five priests without notifying police.http://en.rfi.fr/france/20170320-25-french-bishops-accused-covering-hundreds-sex-abuse-cases
