Nobody seems to be talking about the step that to me is most essential: immediately informing the civil authorities when such cases occur and turning over all evidence to them.

I haven't been paying as much attention to the latest developments as I was earlier, but I recall that at least a couple of archdioceses already said that they were turning over their records to the authorities. I thought that how to handle old cases was pretty much a done deal. The ongoing discussion may be confusing because of the difference between old cases and new cases.

For new cases, current incidents, how would allegations be reported? Were I a parent, I would go to the police, not the Church. Wouldn't you? The Church may still receive some allegations or Church officials might have direct observations or suspicions, but I would think that most allegations would be reported to the police so the question of what the Church does with allegations is less critical.
