Mixa should not be a bishop

Why has there not be a word in the media from the priests in the diocese of Augsburg concerning the behaviour of Walter Mixa?

And if the report on the former vicar general of the diocese of Munich is true and that he was pressurised into taking the blame for a mistake made 30 years ago by Josef Ratzinger concerning the case of a paedophile priest, then our church really is in a terrible place.

Der Spiegel alleges it has seen a letter written by Fr Gerhard Gruber to a friend where he says he was 'begged' to sign a prepared statement.
