The Antisocial Socialist

This is extremely fucked up. :( I can't imagine the fear and horror those kids went through or the heartbreak of their families.

What I don't understand is why governments and churches are so into sweeping this kind of thing under the rug for so long. Even on a more cynical level, surely it would be better PR to be seen to try to do the right thing, than to very obviously hiding secrets that people inevitably suspect -- or even confirm their suspicions.
