An anonymous alleged sexual abuse victim of former Cardinal Theodore McCarrick says he and other alleged victims have been working with the Vatican to fact-check the comprehensive dossier on McCarrick’s misdeeds.
The alleged victim, writing under the name Nathan Doe, says he was one of several minors that McCarrick abused, and that he had previously collaborated with Church authorities to provide evidence during the canonical penal administrative process which resulted in McCarrick’s 2019 laicization.
He says early in 2020, “persons tasked by the Holy See with investigating McCarrick’s career” reached out to him and several other alleged victims to ask if they would be willing to provide facts and information to ensure the report’s accuracy.
“Time will tell, but nothing in my experience thus far indicates any type of cover-up or attempt to minimize anything by anyone involved in the Holy See’s investigation,” Doe writes in a June 5 blog post.

Is Nathan Doe just fact checking the abuse of minors by McCarrick? There had to be Church officials in the United States and at the Vatican who knew what he was up to and were payed off. I had a priest friend from New York who is now deceased. He knew McCarrick. When he would hear stories about the seminarians from Newark and Metuchen and the beach house he would also hear that McCarrick told people they were his nephews. This priest would say, "nephews, he's an only child."
That's like the rich old geezer with a beautiful young woman on his arm he identifies as his "niece"
