If homosexual priests flooded several seminaries after Vatican II (ealry 1960s), it was their fiefdom across whole archdioceses, not just one or two parishes and schools. They probably made it clear to the victim that if they transfered to another Catholic school nearby, the “bad rep” would follow them. I think the MSM does have an agenda in re overblowing the threat of pedophilic priests (in actuality 10% of all ordained clergy, not much different then the reported percentage of homosexuals in society) just on endemic hostility to religion, particularly forms of Christianity. In earlier times (1980s), I also believe the fundamentalist churches also glommed on to these incidents to try to get people to leave Catholicism and convert to various fundamental sects.
