Meanwhile the former pope and his bishop protected known child abusers who continued to abuse children.

Aiding a criminal is itself a crime in Germany -- I would go for "Täterschaft durch Unterlassen"; without their enablement, no further abuse could have happened.

But the prosecutors seem to be to involved with the church shrug

Instead of going for the known abusers the general population gets the STASI 3.x treatment.

Some days I wish the EU dissolves into irrelevancy. Barely more than a fishbowl full off awkward, self righteous bureaucrats. Then again, the scavengers and populists are already waiting and are the guaranteed ticket to hell during lifetime.
