"Former Nun Demands Transparency in Investigation of Sexual Abuse by Jesuit Priest"
Gloria Branciani, one of the first women to accuse Jesuit artist Rev. Marko Rupnik of spiritual and sexual abuse, demands transparency from the Vatican and a full accounting of those who covered for him for 30 years. Rupnik's mosaics decorate churches worldwide, but he was kicked out of the Jesuit order last year after refusing to respond to allegations of abuse. Branciani is set to testify before the Vatican's Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, calling for the full story of the scandal and cover-up to be made public. The Vatican press office has received new documentation related to the case, and Branciani's lawyer hopes for greater transparency and accountability.
