\u00a0<\/span>For some reason I do not understand, German newspapers will not print the names of convicted\u00a0 <\/span>criminals. However, the Italian press is more like the American.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The abuser identified only as Father \u201cH\u201d in the German press has been identified as Peter Hullermann by La Stampa<\/a><\/em>. He is still a priest in Bad T\u00f6lz in Germany.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

He was first in Munich, then in Garching, and after 2008 in Bad T\u00f6lz.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Remember: Hullermann was sent to Munich for treatment; the vicar general under Ratzinger, Gruber, put Hullermann in a parish, where he abused again, and was convicted, He was returned<\/strong>to parish work and remained an active priest until this week<\/strong>.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00abL\u2019hanno spostato qua e l\u00e0 e lui ha continuato a comportarsi come prima\u00bb, lamenta al telefono Wilfried F. \u00c8 lui la vittima degli abusi che ha dato il via all’intera vicenda. Negli Anni 70, di ritorno da un’escursione, il parroco, allora ancora a Essen, gli diede degli alcolici, lo rinchiuse nella sua camera, lo spogli\u00f2 e lo costrinse a fare sesso orale. Quando lo venne a sapere, spiega Wilfried F., la Chiesa prefer\u00ec regolare la questione al proprio interno, senza far intervenire la magistratura. A lui, allora undicenne, assicurarono: \u00abQuel prete non lavorer\u00e0 pi\u00f9 con i bambini\u00bb. Invece, poco dopo, Hullermann fu trasferito a Monaco e, in seguito a una decisione presa non da Ratzinger ma dall’allora vicario generale Gerhard Gruber, si vide riassegnati incarichi pastorali. Di l\u00ec a qualche anno fu nuovamente accusato di pedofilia. Non tutti, tuttavia, lo ricordano con astio. Anzi. Quando lasci\u00f2 la comunit\u00e0 di Garching, nel 2008, ci furono applausi a scena aperta e a qualcuno scapparono persino delle lacrime. Un rappresentante dei chierichetti sostenne persino che \u00abHullermann \u00e8 riuscito a creare una chiesa giovane e a trasmettere in modo duraturo il suo amore per la liturgia alle giovani generazioni\u00bb.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In Essen in the 1970s, after plying a boy with liquor, Hullermann has oral sex with him. The church found out, put preferred to handle it internally rather than go to the police. But the victim was assured that the priest would never again work with children.\u201d Hullermann was transferred to Munich with Ratzinger\u2019s permission, and was supposed to receive treatment. The vicar general Gerhard Gruber, supposedly without Ratzinger\u2019s knowledge, put Hullermann in a parish, There he again abused a child.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When Hullermann left Garching in 2008, there was a scene of applause and tears. Hullermann had taken such an interest in the youth of the parish.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
