Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, of infamous memory, is dead at 94. The horror is not over. His buddies who protected him and lied for him are still running the church in America.
His victims, and I do not mean the grown men who played along with his perversion for "career" advancement, but rather the young men who said no to him and were driven from the seminary. I also mean his minor aged victim(s).
Having done research for multiple child sexual abuse cases I don't think people realize how much the victims suffer for the rest of their lives. Many live with depression, explosive anger,and the feeling that they are polluted and no matter how many drugs they take or alcoholic drinks they chug down, they'll never feel clean again. None of this is going to dissappear because McCarrick is finally dead.
Think about the men sitting in various chanceries across the United States who owe everything to Uncle Ted. One of them may be your bishop, the rector of your cathedral or the head of your college.
St. Peter Damian, pray for us.
May God have mercy on everyone who fell prey to McCarrick's unclean and unnatural appetite.
