On September 12, the University of Zurich presented a study on the abuse of children and young people by Catholic dignitaries in Switzerland. Bishops turned a blind eye, covered up the case, and protected the perpetrators. Two days before the study's publication, SonntagsBlick reported that Pope Francis had appointed Bishop Bonnemain as a special investigator to investigate allegations of cover-up against six bishops.
