"Soon, I Shall Find Myself Before The Final Judge Of My Life"- Ex Pope Benedict Says - Asks For Forgiveness

Former Pope Benedict has acknowledged that errors occurred in handling sexual abuse cases when he was archbishop of Munich and asked for forgiveness, as his lawyers argued he was not directly to blame.

The Vatican on Tuesday issued a letter by Benedict and a three-page addendum following a report released last month on abuse in the archdiocese from 1945 to 2019 by German investigators.
