text: Accusations of abuse were publicly known for some time and i believe some or maybe just one delayed a promotion for him.  His cruel behavior to survivors and their families was well known.  And yet AND YET the pope BROUGHT HIM to the vatican in a very high position.  I personally wrote the pope and copied o'malley.  Grace o would turn over in her grave.  There was a huge uproar in australia over this.  Do not think for one moment this is news that is just coming out.  He is a horrid man and a true scandal...a real scandal that people have known aspects of for many years.  I like the pope, but he has some splaining to do and now and not just to catholics but to humanity.  We all pay for the suicides and the wasted lives ..not just catholics.
