How could any person talk to a 14-year-old boy, hear stomach-turning information and not tell his parents?
Did people ask questions? No not the anonymous ones, which appear on Vatican notes, but the honest questions decent people ask?
But all these stories, all this 'stuff' leads to the irrefutable reality that there is something greatly wrong with the formation of priests.
And it seems there is a new retrenchment taking place. The future looks bleak.
It might well be time for the Irish State to do a root and branch investigation into what goes on inside places where men are trained for priesthood.
