Spanish probe estimates more than 200,000 children abused by Roman Catholic clergy

  • An independent commission in Spain found that over 200,000 children were estimated to have been sexually abused by the country's Catholic clergy, with the number rising to more than 400,000 when including lay people affiliated with the Church.
  • The Catholic Church in Spain declined to participate in the investigation, but did provide documents on abuse cases. The report criticized the Church's response to the abuse, calling it "insufficient," and recommended the creation of a state fund to compensate victims.
  • The revelations in Spain are part of a broader pattern of sexual abuse scandals within the Roman Catholic Church worldwide, often involving children.
