More than 200,000 minors are estimated to have been sexually abused by French Catholic clergy over 70 years, investigators say
The landmark report to be published Tuesday suggests an estimated 216,000 minors were abused between 1950 and the 2020; that number rises to an estimated 330,000 when including victims of abusers who were not clergy but had other links to the Church, such as Catholic schools and youth programs, according to Jean-Marc Sauvé, the president of the Independent Commission on Sexual Abuse in the Church which authored the report.
The report estimated the number of survivors nationwide over time based on the number of survey respondents who said they had been abused. The national survey came in addition to a public call for victim testimonies, Sauvé told CNN ahead of the report's release.
