11:34 am
a credible public document it has to be either a court document that's publicly accessible or a mainstream news outlet. she began her work fourteen years ago sorry in the states these activists publish the names and photos of accused priests on the into. net to try to ensure they never come into contact with children again. this is just the letter a and it just keeps going. i mean the names of the i'm so all in the entire database we have forty four hundred names to be of any friends names and in the least we do have several so father revoir is a very troubling case because he abused this young boy and and mario innuit oid did report the abuse eventually within statute and. was fled in one thousand nine hundred three it somehow spirited him back to france
11:35 am
where he lives safely now that's not the case of his victim who took his own life in december of two thousand and twelve to avoid justice one french priest accused of a sexual abuse of minors is thought to have fled to canada and be hiding in france . the story barely seems credible. we contacted the sister of one of the priests presumed victims. speaks to us from northern canada in a way territory her brother maher used to go he committed suicide five years ago he had filed a complaint against the french priest and she has some to some old photos of her and her kid brother and want to fall river walk a. modest. you've seen the white house. well that's.
11:36 am
why you you decided . do you think madea's was the only. we get our hands on a warrant issued to the canadian police for father of war's arrest. they've been
11:37 am
after the priest since one thousand nine hundred ninety eight. on it we discover the name of maher yes but also two other boys made anonymous by the police with black lines. a girl of fourteen is also a mom go legit victims. 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 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 up in canada he didn't stay in who was presumed by the canadian police he
11:38 am
apparently with next to to have done nearly all and that's what 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. which is to say the priest want to. by 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. whoa. the moment we want to show he was motioning one. ship it was he didn't. want our information was correct. you know all. the priest is here at the end of the corridor or.
11:39 am
the no show you know who can imagine the thought of article on the new foulness as well. you only then used a vow never to look a square foot on the divestment that's the only the story told in the west only knew every time because it was a said watch idea because it was off on film body to ruin it i wanted to figure it was extra. in the movement of all it wasn't the only thing that you discovered so before you had one a day to destroy the little. slip and number then bring them to more. it's going to exclude norm do not use to get it so what it was was a. trick or oh wait i'm here pinocchio here you should take him. to the tsunami because an eclipse was. we sure the photo of the young into it mari is totally
11:40 am
commercial so that's concerning. in the winters is a number of us in the soup and c.c.'s i've also got actually is a good buck is you did those you don't need or don't feel the same maybe i thought it was expected as you really didn't want to be good to be caesar there is room. to be relinquished there's no room. in the military who said it was it's written there than i have done a diet and you know it was it's no use. nasiriyah which community was near the rush hour it's not it. doesn't just include some serious food. was a bit out of his it shimmers off really blown off when the papa arse. because i'm a local person in the senate and they do all i need all the graces that we have and . how can a priest accused of the sexual abuse of minors change countries and homes and stay
11:41 am
out of the clutches of the police and justice for almost twenty years. and is it an isolated case. one man may have an explanation. back in the united states we've arranged to meet a former american priest patrick wall since the one nine hundred ninety s. he has been a close up witness of pedophile scandal. when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murder i would prefer it be in the death penalty just because i think that's the fair thing the right thing research shows that for every nine executions one convict is found innocent the idea that we were executing innocent people is terrifying the is just
11:42 am
mooned the present and then we hear even many victims' families want the death penalty to be abolished the reason we have to keep the death penalty here is because that's what murder victim's families what that's going to give them peace that's going to give them justice and we come in and say. not quite enough we've been through this this isn't the way.
11:43 am
so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race in this on off and spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. it was. joining the
11:44 am
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 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 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
11:45 am
pattern we've seen. it's the same pattern. in england in italy 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. the priest is is a perpetrator. he simply moves him to a different spot where the previous. and if. you move him outside the country that's. a geographic solution you can move in from the continent as long as you can speak the language that is needed it looks. as though 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. one evening
11:46 am
we received dozens of internal documents from the community of st john five hundred brothers present throughout the world. community is highly controversy. 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. as we turn the pages we get a strange feeling the community seems to have become a master of the international displacement of priests suspected of sexually abusing children. among the pile of documents from the community of st john one recent letter draws our attention. and sends us rushing to the airport.
11:47 am
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 i used all my weight to make sure this did not happen. what have 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
11:48 am
brothers run one of the biggest high schools in your own day the capital. but in virtue of in the 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. many will say no that. suit you know that those who clothes are now on the mills when i came it wasn't to go in and out into the. on the. city you know this is just a nice time cause he did it. because it is what up on the train it wanted to be knew his going to town then he must do to get his proceeded to topical and i found out
11:49 am
as communities seem to guess she. looked he said i'm here because i don't was an occasional if a new yankee margin because he said he's a part of we did do. this one opponent and it wanted to be new it was a. group of artists it led. and etc we tried to dig deeper but not all of the. media yesterday did reality see a lot out of you a commodity and symbols are going to want it back and this christmas it comes. if you want to go to the river but i was at let's see device 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
11:50 am
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. percent yes. the cheerleader p.c.'s. she says but this is. this is. just showing one of the community's internal documents that we managed to procure the
11:51 am
mug shots of all the st john brothers across the globe five hundred eight and. we'll. see this priest had indeed been posted importune. he didn't rule coming for you to do or go to school. you do. see him go see it. and it is a new flu he said the early. days. he. 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 and i lent us a nice little cradle out of to dick on up as if you do know it when this oh so you
11:52 am
did just so she did you get the deal. she says yeah summer yeah. illegal about to see that pretty simple as that is all the. same for simple pentacle don't exist. in. the justice of man seems to serve men of god. we have an appointment with a civil servant inside the ministry of justice. film discreetly. she 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. do that but don't call us to expose them i just called you to get out of there as you have just got to do going to discipline you got to go then that's probably good. i should be sure to. read them
11:53 am
but you know. i'm a little. 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 up. there's nowhere instead he's really doesn't need it as the planet the priest. all together. well could not will not part. with. the thing. before leaving pretty well we need another presumed victim. he too picks up father emmanuel from the mugshots. since he was. where his father emanuel now the french priest accused of
11:54 am
sexually abusing at least two boys. among the communities 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 and initially when. it comes. to the interests of such. of them we wait for the father outside the priory. after a few hours mostly positive he finally shows up. we filmed discreetly . tell me it was. you know there was a. man just the owner of the. an f.a.q. is available over to the tories on the east and how they but there's
11:55 am
a false as far as do all the little i'm just what i see. here vulcan is what i mean to shift with that if possible commit those when i press or. to look for show interest in moscow was a policy is because it. guys give awkwardnesses if you have a. little sickle but. it's mistook at the end of all the political politics of s.c. micro. pull for luck and reach. a good one those are the months you. in the city since it is official to fix the example. susi says so it's a fool. i want to just get it and you've got a little justice is there to do that for the good i thought it was if i'm that of. a fellow cause it is what up on the to the white people know what he's going to done there's really more yes sure to play as opposed to the whole night but of
