Don't worry Brazil won't be the last Sex Abuuse Scandal

The media feeding frenzy has just begun, and now we await the stories coming out of Africa and India as well as the rest of Latin America.

Like the Bishop Williamson roast last year, the media didn't accomplish much.

Sex scandal embroils Catholic Church in Brazil

By BRADLEY BROOKS (AP) – 19 hours ago

RIO DE JANEIRO — Brazilian authorities are investigating three priests accused of sexually abusing altar boys after a video allegedly showing one case of abuse was broadcast on television, police and church officials said Tuesday.

The case came to light after the SBT network aired a video purportedly showing an 82-year-old priest having sex with a 19-year-old altar boy who worked for him for four years. Other young men appeared on the report saying that they, too, had been abused by Monsignor Luiz Marques Barbosa.

Also under investigation are Monsignor Raimundo Gomes, 52, and Father Edilson Duarte, 43, for allegedly having sexual relations with boys and young men.
