joined the monastery as a very idealistic twenty year old and thought i was going to be a monk a priest and unfortunately it didn't work out that way because so many sex abuse cases came forward then i ended up actually being ordained early to go work on and follow sex abusers who were being withdrawn and at that point at the age of thirty two i had to make a moral decision am i going to support this institution you know in my part of this or do i have to find a different path and that's when i chose to take it take a different path and to help survivors what do you think since then patrick was become a whistleblower an expert called on to testify in over two thousand cases of priests accused of sexual abuse according to him the catholic church has developed a system to exfiltrate pedophile priests. that's the same pattern we've seen in
7:46 pm
australia it's the same pattern we've seen in the united states it's the same pattern we've seen in canada it's the same pattern in ireland in england in italy it's honestly it's in the d.n.a. of the roman catholic system and i like to call this the geographic solution so what the bishop needs to do that he finds out that the priest is is a perpetrator and then at that point he simply moves him to a different spot where the previous scandal is not known and it is not enough to move him outside the country that that's a geographic solution you can move in from continent to continent as long as you can speak the language that is needed it looks legitimate and so he's going to be accepted without question that's where the danger comes. an anonymous source will provide us with proof of the geographical solution described by patrick. one
