Conclave 2013: Sex abuse
victims’ network names Dirty
Dozen would-be popes




AS Catholic cardinals begin the
process to elect a new Pope who
will succeed Pope Emeritus
Benedict XVI, a sex abuse victims’
network has named a “Dirty
Dozen” of cardinals who are
contenders for the role of next
pope.
The list, compiled by Survivors’
Network of those Abused by
Priests (SNAP) and based on each
individual’s actions and
statements re-child abuse and a
Church cover-up in the church,
includes some frontrunners for
the position.
The cardinals on the list have
not responded to it. Vatican
spokesman Federico Lombardi
said: “It is not up to SNAP to
decide who comes to conclave
and who is chosen.” SNAP’s
executive director, David
Clohessy, said the group had
focused on candidates who had
the best chances of being
nominated pope.
The following 12 papal
candidates are the ones that we
are most worried about
becoming the next pope. These
12 were chosen based
exclusively on their actions and/
or public comments about child
sex abuse and cover up in the
church. Sources include
mainstream media accounts,
legal filings and victims’
experiences. The names are in
no particular order.
