About Pontifical Secret
Pontifical Secret and Madonnina
Pontifical Secret* facilitated and covered up sexual crimes against children and vulnerable adults for the past century.
Sadly, a match wasn’t enough.
SNAP Conclave Watch:
“In 2019, Francis abolished the pontifical secret, a move that would allow the Vatican to share abuse documents with civil authorities and give victims updates on the status of their cases. Although it has been hailed as a major achievement in bringing about transparency surrounding sexual abuse and cover-up in the church, it has not changed the Vatican practice of withholding critical documents and evidence from investigations of abuse.”
May the next Pope start a fire!
