Leaked report shows German nuns were renting out young boys for rape orgies

A report being withheld from the public documents horrific acts of rape and sexual abuse against young boys that were facilitated by nuns belonging to the Cathoic Archdiocese of Cologne

nuns who ran a convent in Speyer, Germany between the 1960s and 1970s “rented” orphaned boys to businessmen and clergy, who abused the children, sometimes for weeks at a time

the nuns would discipline them for having “wrinkl[ed] their clothes or being covered in semen

175 children, most of them boys between the ages of 8 and 14, were abused over two decades. Some of the children were intentionally barred from being adopted or taken into a foster home so the nuns could continue to hire them out

The details were leaked to the press after the archdiocese refused to make the report public, demanding that journalists who viewed the documents sign a confidentiality agreement.

What the hell is going on with the Catholic church and child abuse?
An investigation had found that 175 boys in the care of the Catholic Archdiocese of Cologne were rented out by the nuns for rape orgies and other such abuse. The archdiocese then refused to release the details to the public and demanded that journalists sign confidentiality agreements promising not to tell anyone.
At what point are these Catholic institutions considered organized child sex trafficking rings? Because that's exactly what was happening here.

Anyone who acts like organized child sex trafficking is some "crazy conspiracy theory" is an absolute idiot. When NUNS are working together to rent out children for horrific sexual abuse, then it can happen anywhere.

sick and disgusting. This kind of thing needs to be shouted from the rooftops and smashed out of existence, not hidden away.

I honestly think that pizzagate and q # was started to delegitamize anyone talking about human trafficking. Just prior to that all happening, people were talking about it, books were being written about it exposing it. Then the q # happened, now if you believe in human trafficking you're crazy.

I've been told repeatedly i'm a liar when I tell the story of the actual person I know, in real life, who applied for a job at a pizza place and was offered the 'opportunity' to also work in the 'backroom'.

Where I used to live there were apartments all around me full of escorts who'd been trafficked there by Chinese gangs. Some of them were busted and kids as young as 12 were found.

Hell they used to warn us in high school about the human traffickers that would send teenage girls to the schools in hopes of convincing other teenage girls to go down to the streets in the city with them.

I know another person who's baby was going to be taken by her pimp father as soon as she was old enough to be put to work, luckily, he died of a fentynal overdose and she escaped with her baby.

Every major city is full of organized human trafficking. It's a huge problem globally, but now you can't talk about it, because pizzagate happened....

Reminds me of this story a few years back. Likely a similar situation and absolutely sickening.

Up to 400 children died at a Scottish orphanage run by nuns and were buried in a single unmarked grave, new research has revealed.

The Daughters of Charity of St Vincent de Paul, which ran the Smyllum Park orphanage in Lanarkshire, has previously acknowledged that 158 children were buried in compartments at a nearby cemetery.
But there have long been suspicions that the real figure was far higher.
Now research carried out by BBC Radio 4's File on Four programme and the Sunday Post newspaper, including a trawl of more than 15,000 official records, has revealed hundreds of children died at Smyllum - far more than the charity that ran it has admitted.

How does this add up when there's 175 people that are
adults now who never said anything about this? Don't get
me wrong I have no doubt that the worst kind of sex crimes
involve many of the elite. Still when there are questions
in regards to a story I think it's best to ask those questions
before making a conclusion. A lot of people are using pedophilia
to slander others so we should always be aware of that going
on.

I’d go even further and ask when it’s appropriate for the public to just take justice into their own hands and deal out death penalties themselves. If it was my kid that’s what would happen.

There is no group immune to the sex trafficking trade. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Mother Thresa was involved.

There are a lot of reasons people don't talk about their abuse. Shame, embarrassment, the difficulty of having to relive the experiences by describing them, fear of retaliation from powerful people, fear of one's image being tarnished, etc.
How would you like it if everyone you know, your entire family and everyone you work with, suddenly knew you as that guy who was passed around for sex with other men as a child and covered in their semen during wild rape orgies for years?
It's just far easier to say nothing and try to pretend it never happened.

Not to excuse any abuse in any way, but I suspect that there is more to this than we're being told, and it may not be exactly what we're being told.

I am quite disturbed and curious as to why it was the Archdiocese asked to conduct this investigation, and not law enforcement authorities. Why would anyone trust a report by the Archidiocese essentially investigating themselves? Apparently they did find some incriminating evidence, but that seems to be questionable itself.

Haucke, who led the victims' group of those who survived the nuns until he resigned over the censoring of the report, says Woelki told them in October 2020 that the report was not “legally watertight” and contained “inadmissible prejudices” against the Catholic church that were fed by scandals going on elsewhere. “The survivors were used again,” he said, referring to their cooperation in the report only to have it kept private.

Would that be why the focus is only on the nuns? Rather than those men who actually inflicted the abuse?

The report names various German businessmen and complicit clergy who “rented” the young boys from the nuns who ran a convent in Speyer, Germany between the 1960s and 1970s.

Why are those men not being named?

And is it possible that the nuns were not the ones actually running the show? Perhaps not even aware (tho probably suspicious) of what was actually going on? I'm not Catholic, but as I understand it, nuns (women) are subservient to the priests and other clergy (men.) Especially back in the 60s and 70s.

This is not to say the victims are lying, but I very much doubt they had the all the facts to judge the situation by, nor the critical thinking skills to process it. I just think there's much more to this.

Y’all, this is the whole point of religion.
It is organized crime. Period.

Totally disgusting and even worse that the Catholic Church tried to gag reporters.

There seems to be a lot of cases globally from the 60's and 70's so you would really have to question why that is the case. Was it just widespread then or beforehand? Does it still happen large scale? Or was there something specific back then that encouraged it? For example, is it possible that a lot of nuns back then (in mainland Europe specifically) were still traumitised by the war so didn't value life the same? I honestly don't know.

Don't get me wrong, there is NO excuse for this. I do think though that we need to learn the "why's" so it doesn't happen again.

I see your point but zero out of 175 not wanting revenge? That's exactly
how I would like it. Nothing else would matter to me. I stand by my post.

In Germany? Good.

Start proceedings in Nuremberg and follow the evidence wherever it leads. The way the monsters of another organization were brought to justice.

Which reminds me of this story

796 Irish orphans buried in mass grave near Catholic orphanage: historian - Orphanage's septic tank was converted to serve as body disposal site

The Catholic Church in Ireland is facing fresh accusations of child neglect after a researcher found records for 796 young children believed to be buried in a mass grave beside a former orphanage for the children of unwed mothers.

The researcher, Catherine Corless, says her discovery of child death records at the Catholic nun-run home in Tuam, County Galway, suggests that a former septic tank filled with bones is the final resting place for most, if not all, of the children.

Church leaders in Galway, western Ireland, said they had no idea so many children who died at the orphanage had been buried there, and said they would support local efforts to mark the spot with a plaque listing all 796 children.

And in Canada
Three decades after Mount Cashel orphanage abuse scandal, victims are still fighting for justice

If there was ever a time to return to public executions, I'd say child traffickers and abusers would be a fantastic place to start.

Absolute scumbags and nothing less. It seems to be an organised pedo ring, the catholic church. As for the pope moving pedo bishops to another diocese, proves he's an enabler. As guilty as the pedo in my opinion.

I get where you are coming from, but a "dirty lil secret" is a powerful, shameful thing.

I found this post that gives a wider take on the story. At least on of the victims is suing, and there are Church and 'Business Men' involved.

Having seen how Jimmy Saville was white washed for years, it doesn't suprise me it was kept very quiet.

That answers my question.

Now I'll light the fire myself.
