Pope visit philadelphia 2018

Pope Francis had long defended a Chilean bishop who Father Karadima’s victims said had witnessed and covered up the abuse.

The city announced last week that it would close its notorious 91-year-old House of Correction jail because reforms begun two years ago have dropped the city's jail population by 33 percent, without causing any increase in crime or chaos.
