12:38 am
we get our hands on the warrant issued to the canadian police for father of war's arrest. they've been after the priest since one thousand nine hundred ninety eight . on it we discover the name of mario but also two other boys made anonymous by the police with black lines. a girl of fourteen is also among go legit victims. you know the priest is thought to have abused four children. finally in the top left hand corner of vital piece of information the name of the town where the priest is believed to be hiding in france
12:39 am
a small town in the bocuse where there's a monastery belonging to his community. so we catch the train to strasbourg. that's right because in the meantime we've got hold of some internal documents from his community father revoir has been transferred several times. after canada he didn't stay in who is presumed by the canadian police he apparently with next to to have done nearly all and that's when we lost track of him. but after several months of inquiries during a phone call to a priest from a priori were father of war had stayed unwittingly gave us a new lead. refused to see the priest one of the. the canadian police for one thousand years for sexually abusing four children seemingly lives here in strasbourg among his religious community. from now on. we'll film with a hidden camera. no. i don't want to show he was

12:41 am
another number in months more. is going to exclude norm do not use them good so that he could push was a. trick or are waiting to hear it or could hear should and. so this was a no no this isn't it was was. we sure the photo of the young into it mari's totally commercial just confirmed. in the winters is a number of us in the soup and c.c. c.d.'s i've also got actually all you say about this is you did those you don't feel the same maybe i felt it was expected as you really didn't want to disappear good to be caesar there is still. to be relinquished the server. from the minute you said it was it's written there than i have done a diagonal you know it was it's no use both of us are. not serious you should know
12:42 am
he was a rush judge that it. isn't just a play some sort of scoop. was a bit out of his fiction most often really blown off when the papa our school a comical person was saying that a very they were not able or the grace isn't hostility with me for. how can a priest accused of the sexual abuse of minors change countries and homes and stay out of the time. because of the police and justice for almost twenty years. and is it true. one man may have an explanation. back in the united states marines to these are former american priest patrick moore . since the one nine hundred ninety s. has been a close up with news of pedophile scandal. i
12:43 am
think that donald trump is really confident about his capacities ability to persuade people and the power of his personality and all this kind of things and i'm sure the kids i'm going will try to play this card will try to give donald trump something he can tweet so he can you can show to everyone look i'm the first one and the one who rolled the art of the deal and the first one can make a deal with this guy what every other american people president before me failed i succeeded. played football that bring people together and i'm sure that his fellow club will be exceptional good will come on the field of play the door also for the image fluid for the fee for the mitchell for russia to show that able to organise a vote up. in
12:44 am
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 the 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
12:45 am
a different path and to help surviving well you know 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 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 then 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
12:46 am
move him outside the country that's. the geographic solution you can move in from continent to continent as long as he 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 wall. one evening we received dozens of internal documents from the community of st john five hundred brothers present throughout the world. this french community is highly controversy. it has the highest number of priests found guilty of pedophilia in recent years three since two thousand and twelve. and there are thought to have been more cases of sexual abuse it's all there black and white.
12:47 am
as we turn the pages we get a strange feeling the community seems to have become a master in the dark of the international displacement of priests suspected of sexually abusing children. among the pile of documents from the. city of st john one recent letter draws our attention. and sends us rushing to the airport. here's the letter signed by a high ranking church official this archbishop from cameroon. he wrote to the head of the community of st john having decided to exclude from the jusice several st john priests he explained himself. reverend brother some brothers of st john got themselves into situations of extreme gravity the brothers in question were about to be hauled in front of the courts at
12:48 am
a risk of dirtying the damage of our church i used all my weight to make sure this did not happen. what had these french priest done to incur the wrath of an archbishop. in cameroon a mostly catholic country the community of st john is an institution. the brothers run one of the biggest high schools in yone dig the capital. but invert to uk and east of the country the brothers of state john have left town. until two thousand and fourteen they oversaw this cathedral the biggest in the region. and. we go to see the archbishop the one who asked the same john priest to leave. months and you're a tango one of the african representatives of the vatican. doesn't that.
12:49 am
measuring nothing. in let's see who can about us to close in on the most of what i came to know about either the pharaoh on his own. sitting you know this just from the next time cause he did it. because it is what up on the train it wanted to be new or he's going to die and then he mustn't think he's visited to topical and i find out it's confusing b.c. in the cache. for back look he said i'm here really mad because i don't watch an occasional if a new yankee margin because he said he's a part of we did rule. this one point and it wanted to be new it was almost the. lead coming in late. and. we tried to dig deeper but not always did what she needed to yesterday did reality see.
12:50 am
it was our view going to want it back and this christmas it comes that. if you want to go into river but i was at the lead sheet of ice i said. that you let go of it ourselves. yes thanks for your precious comments are great but they weren't exactly helpful. i think a feature of the two i will discover the reasons why the st john brothers hurriedly left town another alleged case of pedophilia. the sexual abuse of a number of boys. for three days we try to find these presumed victims. in this city where the catholic church is omnipresent it's hard to broach the subject. finally we find one of the kids who supposedly abused by the priest. today he's fifteen.
12:51 am
kilometers and yes one of. cyrano digital media p.c.'s. g c m but the zero eight hundred disappears and. then you go up by the google. showing one of the communities internal documents that we managed to procure the mug shots of all the st john brothers across the globe five hundred eight of. these . nuzzi this priest had indeed been posted importune. you have resumed coming for that is into your car to feel. safe bicycle so you do more than many think you see and by. and inducing you fools is a c.p.a.
12:52 am
the only. base that is down to the us and blocked in the internet is a good. compactness you know. after a few weeks the boy finally admitted everything to his parents they immediately went together to the bar to a law courts to file a complaint. but here nobody touches the church my lantus and i said you know the pill could be allowed to be called up as if you do know it then this o.c.d. just so she did you. know so is that that in itself she says yeah some are your own jost. illegal to pick up to see that pretty simple sentence though the. sink full of simple tentacle don't exist got to eat. in virtual the justice of man seems to serve men of god. we have an appointment with a civil servant inside the ministry of justice. we filmed discreetly. she
12:53 am
confirms the closeness between the church and one of the top judges. in the letters most of them in it what are they going to. let you do that but don't call us to expose them i just ask you to get out of there as you have just got the president do going to do that that you've got to go then that's probably good. although i should proceed. with them but you know. i'm a little middle of israel you know my oh my what will be. a civil servant gives us an excerpt from the victim's testimony. the name of father emmanuel appears nowhere instead he's really doesn't need it as the plight of the priest. all together to bring about the market. well but not on the part of what you would want to. have
12:54 am
a very good. before leaving for to what we need another presumed victim. he too picks up father emanuel from the mug shots. where his father emanuel now the french priest accused of sexually abusing at least two points. among the communities internal documents other postings made in two thousand and sixteen. since being expelled from her to join cameroon father emmanuel appears to be in bologna in italy. it's. too soon to try to see such. as. we wait for the father outside the priory.
12:55 am
after a few hours mostly positive he finally shows up. we filmed discreetly . tell me where the most. you know that there was in the mad just right over. there to our own f.a.q. and we set up all over to the tories on the east and other but that isn't false as far as the all the little i'm just what i see. here volcanism i mean to to for that if muslims will commit those when i guess or. three or four show interest in lost cause of aussies because a fictional guys could organise is if you know a. little sickle but not for just took it to a couple to political politics or bessie and i go. forth for not going to the. good one those initial the months year. on
12:56 am
a silly sinisterly it was official to fix the example. sue sue sue sue says so it's a cool. which teaches that it's you know you've got to do is to do that for the group because if it's a metaphor. if it is what up on the to the point people know he's got it down there surely please surely she proceeded to pull a noise but of course at the actual bank the committee was actually it looks as if it was one person was just looking for groceries food. shit this is suited very subtle indeed children are manipulated by the archbishop but father a manual offers another explanation it's. friend dimitri orloff wrote a famous essay collapse gap a few years ago said that the soviet union and america would both collapse for the
12:57 am
similar reasons just that the u.s. would take longer they positioned i said soviet union was like falling out of a one story window and america's like story falling out of a twenty story window and i think we're seeing this now play out real time america's falling out of the twenty story window it is a collapse gap to still be here in america collapse roughly the same time for roughly the same reasons and now america is having its boris yeltsin moment with. that. kind of.
12:58 am
