Cardinal Pell, publicizing new book, forgives enemies, praises Trump
Forgiveness is a recurring theme of the former Vatican official’s prison journal, and he told reporters that if anyone in the Vatican meant him harm, ‘I will pray for them.’ Cardinal George Pell answers a journalist’s question during an interview with The Associated Press inside his residence near the Vatican in Rome on Nov. 30, 2020. The pope’s former treasurer, who was convicted and then acquitted of sexual abuse in his native Australia, said he feels a dismayed sense of vindication as the financial mismanagement he tried to uncover in the Holy See is now being exposed in a spiraling Vatican corruption investigation.
