French cardinal admits to abusing 14-year girl, withdraws from functions

PARIS – French cardinal Jean-Pierre Ricard stated in a press release on Monday that he had abused a 14-year-old lady many years in the past and stated he would withdraw from his capabilities.

“Thirty-five years in the past, after I was a parish priest, I've behaved in a reprehensible means with a younger lady aged 14. My behaviour has inevitably led to grave and lasting penalties for this particular person,” Ricard stated in a press release.

Ricard requested for forgiveness and stated he would withdraw from his capabilities and be out there for authorized and church authorities.
