400+ counts of child molestation in Boston, (Cardinal Bernard Francis Law) jumped on a plane and escaped to "Vatican City" protected from extradition to the US to stand trial, by Pope John Paul II
His Eminence
Bernard Francis Law
Cardinal
Archpriest emeritus of the Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore
Archbishop emeritus of Boston
Law in the mid-1980s
Law was
Archbishop of Boston from 1984 until his resignation on December 13, 2002, after his involvement in the
Catholic Archdiocese of Boston sex abuse scandal became public knowledge, whereupon he fled the country. Law was proven to have ignored or concealed the molestation of numerous underage children;
[1][2] church documents demonstrate that he had extensive knowledge concerning widespread child sexual abuse committed by dozens of
Catholic priests within his
archdiocese over a period of almost two decades, and that he failed to report these crimes to the authorities, instead merely
transferring the accused priests between parishes.
[3] One priest in Law's archdiocese,
John Geoghan,
raped or
molested more than 130 children in six different parishes in a career which spanned 30 years.
[3] Law was widely denounced for his handling of the sexual abuse cases, and his public image was irreparably tarnished in the aftermath of the scandal.
Two years after Law fled Boston, an act which Bishop
William S. Skylstad called "an important step in the healing process",
[4] Pope John Paul II appointed him
Archpriest of the
Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome in 2004. He resigned from this position upon reaching the age of 80 in November 2011 and died in Rome on December 20, 2017, at the age of 86.
