A cardinal who had served as an aide to now-retired Pope Benedict XVI and was present for his meetings with survivors of clerical sexual abuse said he "never found in him any shadow or attempt to hide or minimize anything. "The depths of human sin and depravity "distressed him intimately, and he sometimes remained silent for a long time all the more so if these human miseries were the responsibility of men of the church," said Cardinal Fernando Filoni, grand master of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem. Austrian Cardinal Christoph Schönborn of Vienna also spoke positively of the former pope's handling of abuse during an interview Jan. 28 with ORF, the Austrian broadcaster, according to KNA, the German Catholic news agency.
