victims of pedophile priests

Dozens of children and young deaf raped and molested in a school in Verona until 1984. And after decades of torment, former students find the strength to denounce the horrors. But many of the priests are still there

(Paul Tessadri, L'Espresso)

For over a century has been a symbol of love of the Church: a specialized school to ensure a better future for the deaf and dumb children , sustaining in their studies and entering the work. L 'Institute Antonio Provolo Verona housed the children of poor families, children of a rural North-east where the economic boom was yet to come. Until the mid-eighties was an international model, but in Chievo gloomy building, a building halfway between the seminary and the prison terrible episodes of the crime.

Only today, heartened by the words of condemnation spoken by Pope Ratzinger against pedophile priests, dozens of former guests have found the strength to come out and report their tragic experience: " priests and religious brothers sexually abused us ". A ' charge signed by more than 60 people , boys and girls who lived in the Institute, and now they write:" We have overcome our fear and our reluctance. "

The abuses of which they speak would continued for almost thirty years, until 1984 . They are ready to enumerate a long list of victims and witnesses, but may no longer apply to the judiciary: all crimes are now required, erased by time. The deaf who claim to bring in this drama, however, argue they are not interested or convictions or to financial compensation. They, they write, they want to prevent others from running the risk of suffering the same violence: una decina dei religiosi che accusano oggi sono anziani, ma restano ancora in servizio nell'Istituto , nelle sedi di Verona e di Chievo. Per questo, dopo essersi rivolti al vescovo di Verona e ai vertici del Provolo, 15 ex allievi hanno inviato a 'L'espresso' le testimonianze - scritte e filmate - della loro esperienza.


Documenti sconvolgenti, che potrebbero aprire uno squarcio su uno dei più gravi casi di pedofilia in Italia: gli episodi riguardano 25 religiosi, le vittime potrebbero essere almeno un centinaio .
Gli ex allievi, nonostante le difficoltà nell'udito e nella parola, sono riusciti a costruirsi un percorso di vita, portandosi dentro le traces of the horror. After the explosion of the scandal that forced the U.S. church to take note of the pedophile problem, and the tough stance of Pope Benedict XVI also they have decided not to hide anything. They gathered in the Association deaf Provolo Antonio and then turned to the curia and the top of the Institute. One of the last letters were addressed to Monsignor Giampietro Mazzoni, the judicial vicar, or the judge of the Ecclesiastical Court of the diocese of Verona.

is November 20, 2008: "Deaf people have decided to present to His Eminence the Bishop what had happened to them. In the room used as a confessional of the church of Santa Maria's Western Institute Provolo alcuni preti approfittavano per farsi masturbare e palpare a loro volta da bambine e ragazze sorde (la porta era in quei momenti sempre chiusa a chiave). I rapporti sodomitici avvenivano nel dormitorio, nelle camere dei preti e nei bagni sia all'Istituto Provolo di Verona che al Chievo e, durante il periodo delle colonie, a Villa Cervi di San Zeno di Montagna".
E ancora: "Come non bastasse, i bambini e ragazzi sordi venivano sottoposti a vessazioni, botte e bastonature . I sordi possono fare i nomi dei preti e dei fratelli laici coinvolti e dare testimonianza". Seguono le firme: nome e cognome di 67 ex allievi .

Le storie

I protagonisti della denuncia citano un elenco di casi addirittura molto più lungo, che parte dagli anni Cinquanta. Descrivono mezzo secolo di sevizie, perfino sotto l'altare, in confessionale, dentro ai luoghi più sacri . Quei bambini oggi hanno in media tra i 50 e i 70 anni: il più giovane compirà 41 anni fra pochi giorni. Qualcuno dice di essere stato seviziato fino quasi alla maggiore età. Gli abusi , raccontano, avvenivano anche in gruppo, sotto la doccia . Scene raccapriccianti, impresse nella loro memoria.

Ricorda Giuseppe, che come tutti gli altri ha fornito a 'L'espresso' generalità complete: "Tre ragazzini e tre preti si masturbavano a vicenda sotto la doccia". Ma more distressing is the story of Bruno, now in his sixties, who in the late fifties stood out on other children for angelic features: it was 'beautiful' in its class. And only now pulling out of the nightmare that has plagued him throughout his life: "I became deaf at eight years, nine attended the Provolo that I left at 15 years. Three months after my entry into school and up to the fifteenth years have been the object of sexual attention, I was sodomized and forced to relationships of any kind by the following priests and brothers .. " He listed 16 names. The list is also a high priest, very famous in Verona, two priests would accompany the Provolo Bruno in the palace of Ecclesiastes. "It was 1959, I 11. He allegedly sodomized and other sex toys. It was a terrible experience that left me with serious psychological problems as an adult. "

The drama

Another former student, Guido says that he was molested by a priest:" It happened in her room to ' floor. It forced me to do these things even at Villa deer during summer camps and camping on Lake Garda. "Carlo has been the Institute from 7 to 18 years, and calls into question another priest:" I often forced punishment (kneeling for hours in a corner) and struck (violent slaps and beatings) to have relations with him. "More Sometimes it would have been slapped on the hands, while at night "in the room where I slept with other deaf I often wake up in the bathroom to take me where I was sodomizing or masturbate. I have never forgotten."

stories are similar. Tragedies experienced by children of poor families affected by deafness and then trapped between the walls of the institution; dramas kept inside for decades. Rebuilds Herman: "The violence took place in bathrooms and bedrooms and the Institute Provolo also in the adjacent church." "If they refuse threatened to give me a bad grade in practice, I always return to these facts in mind," writes another. Joseph in Verona sometimes meets her rapist, "Even now when I see him I feel very uncomfortable. I could never forget."

According to reports, the victims were mostly children. But there are also episodes witnessed by children. Lina fifty years now, has remained "deaf and dumb institute for six to 17 years. Thirteen years in the church during confession face to face (no fence), the priest touched my breasts several times . I well remember his name. I got scared a lot and since then I have never confessed. " Joan writes that another priest "has pulled out of the State and he wanted me to touch her." And for many girls The events in the church of the institute, under the altar . A few, however, has been a lot worse.

Complaints

Antonio Provolo Today the Institute has completely changed the structure and mission. Initiatives to support deaf people have been resized and are also financed by the Veneto Region. Now the main activity is the educational and vocational training center, run entirely by lay people, which offers advanced courses for young people and specializes in retraining of the unemployed.

The Sum of all there are always the religious of the Congregation of the Society of Mary for the education of deaf and dumb, which depend directly on the Holy See. Turned to the congregation asking alumni the expulsion of priests called into question. According to their association, " there has already been more than an admission of guilt . The most important was in 2006, when Don Danilo Corradi, superior general of the Institute Provolo would have met more than 50 former students. According to the Association, the Institute would have asked for more than 12 times as an excuse for the abuses committed by other religious.
Witnesses reconstruct a meeting by the dramatic Don Corradi clutching his head in his hands, sweat and asks forgiveness, kneels. But deaf people have demanded the expulsion of priests involved, without getting . A 'The Express' Don Danilo Corradi gives a different version: "I heard something, but I arrived in 2003 and what happened before I do not know. I do not respond to the accusations, I do not know who the face: We will respond after reading the article".

The Curia

For nearly two years alumni have also appealed to the Curia of Verona , the information in more meetings. The President of the Association of Deaf Provolo Antonio, Giorgio Dalla Bernardina, lists three: one attended by 52 people. He writes to the bishop: "Despite our meetings in the Curia during which we have done this also and above all acts of pedophilia and sexual abuse suffered by the deaf during the permanent institution, today there was any response . "The last letter of 8 December 2008. A few months earlier, in September, had made yet another attempt, sending a letter to the Bishop of Verona, Monsignor Joseph Zenti. Unanswered, "despite his assurances and promises of action." This letter was signed by three associations of deaf people: Deaf Association Provolo Antonio, Provolo Association of the Deaf, Deaf Association Basso Veronese-Legnago.

Bishop, interviewed by 'The Express', replies with a written note: "The Provolo is a religious congregation. As such it is of pontifical right and therefore under the jurisdiction of the Congregation of Religious. The diocese of Verona, whose territory has arisen, the Congregation, appreciates the work of a social nature in its action in favor of the deaf ".
Then Monsignor Joseph Zenti enters the matter:" Regarding the accusation of potential child abuse, revolt priests and lay brothers, which was written several decades ago, the diocese of Verona is in the dark. I made some mention of the problem of a group linked to Provolo, but as blackmail than two applications of an economic, in the event that were not answered. However I do not turned any substantiated accusation related to specific people, but only allegations of a general nature. I have nothing to add except a commitment to follow through and all the information contained in the Code of Canon Law and in the subsequent positions taken by the Holy See. Hoping soon to achieve the object of knowing the truth of the facts. "
Deaf Association responds to Bishop Antonio Provolo denying any blackmail or economic interest," We only made this problem, we want those priests are separated because what they did to us does not happen to other .

Do Women Like Men With Smooth Genitals

Ice Age


(by Francis)

may seem strange to us that the earth needs to keep cool life, perhaps because for us mammals 'life' is synonymous with "heat" ... Except that
J. Lovelock discovered decades ago that the story was a bit different from how we were told at the school, namely that the earth would have life because he was at the right distance from the sun , etc., etc. ...

In fact, Earth has life because it is a living organism itself , for reasons we do not know. The distance from the sun, per se, has never been a decisive factor for life, because the sun was a young star when life evolved on earth, and like all young stars producing less heat than today.
A heat that was not enough for life as we know it today sicché si potrebbe dire che allora la distanza dal sole era in teoria "troppo grande" per far prosperare la vita, e la terra troppo fredda per ospitarla.
Eppure vita ci fu, e la terra cercò di "riscaldarsi" favorendo lo sviluppo di batteri che producevano metano come risultato della loro digestione di alghe. Il metano è un gas-serra potente, capace di intrappolare il calore del sole all'interno dell'atmosfera e quindi di aumentare la temperatura globale.

Oggi però il sole è una stella vecchia , e come tutte le vecchie stelle ha aumentato la sua produzione di calore, tramite la fusione nucleare dei suoi gas, e si avvia alla sua naturale death, what will happen with a huge nuclear explosion. Being warmer, it is already theoretically "too hot" to support life on earth, now and then the distance of earth from the sun can again be technically considered "unsuitable" for life on earth, but this time because "too small ".

So today the earth is trying to do the opposite of what he did with methanogenic bacteria: to allow the continuity of life, its need now is to cool . And that the earth is "sacrificing" the poles and the tops of the mountains through the ice, which are the huge white screen capable of reflecting solar rays cooling as the global temperature.

commmovente I find very beautiful and this ability to "Gaia" (Earth as a living organism according to the theory of J. Lovelock, ed) to keep alive and hospitable for his "children" with these efforts absurd regulate the climate and chemistry of the oceans, putting on ice and covering up the stock of carbon accumulated in the underground plant and animal tissue in fossils.
If it were not a living planet, today the temperature is too high for life, given its distance from the sun. But today the sun is a star too old and radiates heat, Gaia must step up efforts to keep cool enough to stay alive.
This effort requires that you return quickly to an ice age . The ice age is not that lifeless desert of ice that they show in cartoons, because to the spread of ice at high latitudes is the emergence of land to the south, which were covered by seas. Land where he now lives can flourish even more florid than that there is now in the land in our latitudes.

The irony of the current situation is that now that Gaia needs to cool down, and that would trigger a new ice age, man hath been multiplied enormously and is preventing the cooling attempts, so far as to reverse course, even lead to a further increase in temperature.
It 's like a boiler is overheating and would need more frequent breaks to cool, and we encourage this rather than throw more fuel on the fire and close most of the relief valves ... Crazy, no? But it is exactly what we are doing now to "our mother", as they think the Native peoples. A huge living organism, perhaps with his "mind" , as the brave scientists Deep Ecology now envisaged, in line with the old conceptions of Plato of "anima mundi" and the knowledge of indigenous peoples .

Maybe now the mind of Gaia is restless and angry towards her children crazy. It's easy to smile at these ideas, conceited and insensitive as we are Western, we have forgotten all avenues of knowledge not through reason. But maybe they were right, who knows ...
