Retired Bordeaux Cardinal Jean-Pierre Ricard, 78, said in a statement on Monday that he is guilty of some kind of abuse.
“35 years ago, when I was a parish priest, I have behaved in a reprehensible way with a young girl aged 14. My behaviour has inevitably led to grave and lasting consequences for this person.“
Ricard was presiding French bishop during 2001-2007 and member of Francis' Council for the Economy during 2014-2020. He asked for forgiveness, withdrew from any functions and is available for legal and church authorities.
The statement was read (video below) by Presiding Reims Archbishop Eric de Moulins-Beaufort, 60. Moulins-Beaufort also said that eleven bishops are under investigation by civil or Church authorities.
McCarrick Cardinal Kevin Farrell, prefect of the Dicastery for the Laity, appointed Cardinal Ricard in February as pontifical delegate of the Foyers de Charité.

Nevjerojatno, pogledajte ovo! U ovoj crkvi nema kipa Gospe ali vjernici ga vide: Nemamo objašnjenje što se događa Objavio Zrinka -14. studenoga 2022. Možda zvuči nevjerojatno, ali je istinito. U niši oltarne pale kapele svetišta Gospe Lurdske u Alta Graciji (Argentina) nema kipa Djevice, ali zapravo se može vidjeti njezina slika čak i kad je potvrđeno da je mjesto potpuno prazno. Slika koju vjernici vide nije plošna nego reljefna, trodimenzionalna. Izgleda kao hologram. To nije psihološka iluzija koja proizlazi iz uzvišene odanosti nekih hodočasnika, pisala je Aleteia. Svi oni koji idu u svetište, vjernici ili ne, to vide, a to ostaje zabilježeno na fotografijama koje nastaju. Ljekovita smreka grm je jači od antibitika: Izvrstan lijek za brojne tegobe i bolesti Ljekovita smreka grm je jači od antibitika: Izvrstan lijek za brojne tegobe i bolesti U NJEMAČKOJ UKIDAJU SAKRAMENTE, SVEĆENICI NISU POTREBNI? Skandalozne upute uznemiruju vjernike U NJEMAČKOJ UKIDAJU SAKRAMENTE, SVEĆENICI NISU POTREBNI? Skandalozne upute uznemiruju vjernike Linker Slika se može vrlo jasno vidjeti s ulaznih vrata i nestaje kako se približavate oltaru. Od kada se javlja ovaj fenomen? Kapela je sagrađena i blagoslovljena 1927. godine, a dugi niz godina u središtu oltarne pale nalazio se kip Gospe Lurdske. U kolovozu 2011. kip je uklonjen iz niše radi restauracije. Jedan od svećenika svetišta spremao se zatvoriti kapelu i s glavnih vrata ugledao je sliku koja je izgledala poput žbuke na mjestu koje je prije zauzimao kip. Prišao je i dok je prilazio slika je blijedila. Kip jednostavno nije bio tamo, već tamo gdje je bio pohranjen. Suočeni s fenomenom, vidljivim svakome tko tamo zađe, braća karmelićani iz svetišta Gospe Lurdske izdali su priopćenje u kojem su potvrdili: “Očitovanje slike Presvete Djevice Marije još nema racionalno objašnjenje. Božji narod to mora protumačiti kao znak povećanja i produbljivanja kršćanske vjere i probuditi u srcima ljudi obraćenje na ljubav Božju i sudjelovanje u životu Crkve”. Povijest kapelice Kapelica se nalazi u velikoj zgradi smještenoj u parku od nekoliko hektara u kojem je 1916. godine svečano otvorena replika špilje Massabielle u Lourdesu, gdje se 1858. godine Djevica ukazala svetoj Bernadette Soubirous. Ova špilja postala je hodočasničko odredište sa sve većim očitovanjima ljubavi prema Majci Božjoj. Godine 1922. formirano je povjerenstvo za izgradnju kapelice uz špilju, čiji je kamen temeljac postavljen 1924. godine i koja je blagoslovio ju je tadašnji biskup Córdobe, monsinjor José Anselmo Luque, 1927. godine.

Talk about a selective memory - if he thought it was so 'reprehensible' why did he accept his appointment as a cardinal since the acts should have precluded such an appointment?

Ricard said: “Today, when the Church in France wishes to listen to the victims and to act in truth, I have decided not to keep silent about my situation and to put myself at the disposal of justice, as much on the level of society as that of the Church.”
“This step is difficult. But what is most important is the suffering experienced by the victims and the recognition of the acts committed, without wanting to hide my responsibility.”
“Thirty-five years ago, when I was a parish priest, I behaved in a reprehensible way with a 14-year-old girl.”
“My behavior necessarily caused serious and lasting consequences for this person.”
“I explained this to her and asked for her forgiveness, and I renew here my request for forgiveness, as well as to her entire family.”
“It is because of these actions that I have decided to take a time of withdrawal and prayer.”
“Finally, I ask forgiveness to those whom I have hurt and who will experience this news as a real trial.”

What ordinary Catholics struggle to comprehend is how did so much evil enter the Church in recent decades? How did so many faithless, Godless, perverts, pederasts, and sexual deviants ever become priests, even becoming bishops and cardinals?

@salliperson --NO, not for well over a century. Maybe you are trying to deflect blame for all this corruption away from the Vatican II Church, but it won't work. I read reports of priest/sex abuse in the Church dating back to 1931. It the period between 1931-61 there were 72 known cases of priestly sexual abuse, usually between women or young girls. These were USA cases. Seventy-two cases covering 30 years. Between 1965 and present, there are over 25,000 cases in the USA between priests and young women, girls, AND for the first time, teenage and young men. After 1979 it is usually cases of priests with young men.
Many times, priests who were guilty of this were put on "sick leave" by their archbishops, nd not assigned other pastoral duties. The more liberal the bishop, the more likely he was to overlook these cases, and assign the priest to pastoral ministry somewhere else.
The "good" or conservative bishops removed them from active service, the progressives let them continue, shuffling them around many times. BERGOGLIO was one of those.
The problem exploded after the "reforms" of Vatican II were implemented, and especially when the Novus Ordo Missae became the standard form of worship.
Paul VI defrocked afew priests. JPII did little, or nothing during most of his 25+ reign. He was more interested in traveling, and delegated these things to his progressive Vatican Cardinals, who chose to do nothing. An entire network f homo priests infiltrated the Vatican offices, and dioceses during the term of JPII. His progressive (and perhaps homosexual) bishops and Nuncios recruited more homos for seminaries, and postings of importance.
Benedict XVI immediatly tried to put an end to the homo influence in the Vatican, and in the Church. It was he who issued a Motu Proprio disallowing homos to enter seminaries and novitiates/monasteries. But this was mostly ignored by Homo bishops. Benedict XVI initiated an investigation of the Homo influence in the Vatican, and assigned Archbishop Vigano to carry out the investigation in the Vatican, alone with several conservative leaning Cardinals. The dossier of the findings were presented to Benedict XVI in 2012, who found the report overwhelming. It was enormously scandelous, and indicted many bishops and Cardinals in the Vatican, and in dioceses, all appointed by JPII.
For whtever reason, less than six months later, Benedict XVI resigned. Perhaps he was threatened by the Homo mob in the Vatican if he initiated a huge housecleaning /expulsion of them.
The report was given to Francis....WHO HAS EITHER DISCARDED IT, OR PUT IT ASIDE. FOR THE NEXT POPE. Regardless, he has not dealt with it....and has allowed the Homo influence in the Vatican and throughout the Church to expand.
Let us pray that the next Pope really does take action. Expel all Homos from the Vatican, fire all Homo bishops and priests, and ban Homos from entering seminaries and religious Orders.
