Church to Grand Jury: Oh no, yes, we were quite serious, yes, very serious indeed… about essentially running a child molester cover-up ring.

…Krol, who served as archbishop from 1961 to 1988, and Bevilacqua, who served from 1988 to 2003, left abuser priests in parishes where they had access to children, or reassigned them to other parishes without notifying even the pastor.
The cardinals typically removed priests only when faced with the threat of lawsuit or scandal, the report found, and some archdiocesan leaders regularly lied to victims and their families when asked if an abuser had a prior record.
“What we found were not acts of God, but of men who acted in His name and defiled it,” the grand jury said.

So serious.
