8:45 pm
economic forum our topic is from the atlantic to the pacific we all know the world is changing we talk about what moves these changes and who's behind. joining 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cases came forward that i ended up actually being ordained early to go work on and follow sex abusers who were being withdrawn and at that point at the age of thirty two i had to make a moral decision am i going to support this institution you know in my part of this or do i have to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 a different path and to help survivors well you know since then patrick was become a whistle blower an expert called on to testify in over two thousand cases of
8:46 pm
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 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 candle is not known and it is not enough to move him outside the country that's that's a geographic solution you can move him from continent to continent as long as he can speak the language that is needed it looks legitimate as well he's going to be
8:47 pm
accepted without question that's where the danger comes. an anonymous source would 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 controversial. it has the highest number of priests found guilty of good ophelia 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. 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.
8:48 pm
among the pile of documents from the commune. 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 a risk of dirtying the damage of our church and i used all my weight to make sure this did not happen. what had these french priest done to
8:49 pm
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 your own day the capital. but in virtue of any piece 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. measuring nothing. in let's see who can have other superheroes and. the most who i came to know about either the pharaoh on his own. said to me no this is
8:50 pm
just an eastern polity. 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 presented to topical and i find out it's confusing he seemed to guess she lived for back least like i'm here because i don't was in occasionally for new yankee margin the cashier is a major part of we did do. this one point and it wanted to be new it was almost the . lead kind of lead. and. we tried to dig deeper but not all of what she needed to yesterday did reality see. it was are going to want it back and this christmas it comes up. if you want to go into the river but i was at the lead sheet of ice i was at the
8:51 pm
end of it you let go of it ourselves. yes thanks for your precious comics are great but they weren't exactly helpful. at the cathedral but will discover the reasons why the st john brothers hurriedly left town another alleged case of paraphilia. 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. killings and yes. syrian indigeneity d.c.s. . and then she disappeared but the city. under disappears and.
8:52 pm
up by the. showing one of the community's internal documents that we managed to procure the mug shots of all the st john brothers across the globe five hundred eight and all. these real. nuzzi this priest had indeed been posted importune. you know i visit him really coming from and he's into a crowd too small. it's impossible to do more than many think you see an. audience when it is in your food is that the da the only. base that is down to the yes and in fact in the internet a good. compared to dissidents. after
8:53 pm
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 and i lent this on him i said you know the fool could be allowed to think it on up as if you do know it in this o.c.d. just so she did you. know so is that. she says yeah summer yeah. illegal about to see that pretty simple sentence though he could go see a sink full of simple pentacle and only give the to eat. in virtue of the justice of man seems to serve men of god. if we have an appointment with a civil servant inside the ministry of justice. we film discreetly. she confirms the closeness between the church and one of the top judges. in the letters mother to admit it what are they going to do that would lead to that but don't call
8:54 pm
us to expose that much of you to get out of it as you have just got it doesn't mean we're going to do that but you got to go then that's probably. the no question that should. come to them but you know. i'm a little middle of brazilian oh 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 really doesn't mean it as look let the priest. to go to the department about the market. well good not on our part but what you want to. have a very good thing. before leaving for two are we need another presumed victim. he too picks up father emanuel from the mug shots.
8:55 pm
where his father emanuel now the french priest accused of sexually abusing at least two points. among the community's internal documents are the postings made in two thousand and sixteen. since being expelled from her to join cameroon father emmanuel appears to be in bologna initially when. it comes. to his interests in trust such. as. we wait for the father outside the priory. after a few hours mostly positive he finally shows up. we filmed discreetly . tell me where the most. you know that there was in
8:56 pm

8:57 pm
