Catholic Church sexual abuse cases

Reports of the sexual abuse of minors by Catholic clergy and members of religious orders have been documented in numerous countries. Beginning in the late 20th century, allegations and subsequent investigations revealed long-term patterns of misconduct and, in some instances, failures by Church authorities to address or disclose allegations. Victims were primarily boys, though girls were also affected, with reported ages ranging from early childhood to adolescence.
