A top Roman Catholic cardinal has acknowledged that the Church Destroyed records on priests who sexually abused children i not mox made the statements in a speech at the vatican conference on preventing sexual abuse by clergy and friday marks met with some of the victims and heard first hand testimony of their traumatic experiences.

People have told me jesus saves the women priests is on top of the process he didnt know why she. Was the only thing i could focus on to take me out of what was happening. I want to be free of the. Rescuer. We. Also. Brought over. Thank you lets go live to our correspondent in rome. Wanting to know marks in germany just a minute the Church Destroyed files on paedophiles that most certainly allowed for more children to fall victims to use given what we know does that come as a surprise. It does not come as a huge surprise however it does this confirmation of just the problem of sexual abuse which is one that i think that has captured most of the attention of International Public but this actually tugs quite directly to the church of a massive cover up i mean the files have been destroyed what were talking about is no longer sexual abuse but no were talking about direct evidence of essentially a church or Institutional Organization for the protection of abusers and criminals. As both men and the german bishops conference just said in an interview today w. That theyre still trying to define one thing around tolerance means rather shocking concerning that were talking about serious crimes about children about lives being destroyed what do you think about this. It seems to be the case that after as initially five years of talking about zero tolerance it is twenty minutes at least to late to have this caution about what zero tolerance might mean especially given the fact that were not just talking about generic and theoretical crimes and abuses but were talking about sexual crimes against children very soft cores so this caution that would have to be had which he savored the jury to call aspects of to zero tolerance whether priests that actually engage in this behavior would be defrocked or would be turned to National Authorities that i mean it is it is really quite remarkable to hear officials of the church talking about the phoenician of zero tolerance specially after having talked about it for four years. And about an hour right now where you are there only a Global Markets and zero tolerance one to the participants expect and the catholic church. I mean its hard to say what he says in the mind of an entire set of people engage in demonstrations nonetheless i think that there are some. Are you very clear pictures said particularly american conversations with victims the main one i think is that the time for talk has now come to an end that talk and listening is no longer welcome what many of this victims want is actually very concrete actions part of the problem is that actions of course require protocols and protocols to mend discussions so we are in a bit of what feels really like a tail chasing competition and really i think that this is a recent why we continue to see so much frustration expressed also in the ministrations us the one that is about to take place here i understand.
