Vatican France Church Abuse

FILE - In this March 1, 2013 file photo, French Cardinal Philippe Barbarin arrives for a meeting at the Vatican. Three of the numerous victims of an alleged French pedophile priest have asked Pope Francis to help them understand why Catholic Church officials failed to protect them. The victims were boy scouts in the 1980s when allegedly molested by Bernard Preynat. The scandal gained attention this month when Cardinal Barbarin and five others were handed preliminary charges for failure to denounce a crime and endangering others (AP Photo/Alessandra Tarantino, File)
