The Catholic church in Australia is in crisis over the covering up of historic sex abuse. One of the most shocking revelations to shake the church was that of Father Michael McArdle, who in a sworn affidavit in 2004 said he confessed to child sex abuse over 1500 times to over 30 priests. Listen to presenter Janak Rogers question Father Frank Brennan, one of Australia's most prominent Catholics and CEO of Catholic Social Services, about how so many priests could have had knowledge about McArdle’s crimes and kept silent.
