This Week’s Winners
Ireland: A newly released report shows that five Catholic priests formed an informal molesters network in which they enabled one another’s crimes by providing rooms in which to commit the attacks and by organizing group excursions with their victims. The report is the first to show that the five accused priests all knew each other and worked together.
