Vatican probing Irish church response to scandal
None
The Vatican said Friday it is moving ahead with its own investigation of how the Catholic church in Ireland is responding to its massive sex abuse scandal, promising it will be sweeping but will not interfere with ongoing probes by magistrates or a parliamentary commission.
It said its team of top prelates hopes was hoping to see victims and their families "who have been deeply wounded by abuse and who wish to be met and heard," citing Pope Benedict's XVI's meetings with victims on some of his foreign trips. (AP)
