The French priest accepts accusations of sexual abuse: Church knew I felt for the boys.

According to the French press, hearings continued yesterday on the second day in the course filed with charges against Preyna for sexual abuse.

When I was in school at 14, I knew I felt (for boys). They told me I was sick, but they wanted to get rid of me and sent me to another seminar. They had to help me, they made me priest”, Preynat said in his testimony in court.

Preynat blamed the church for ignoring warnings of its tendency to abuse and admitted the allegations of sexual abuse.

The court also witnessed people claiming to have been victims of the priest.

Meanwhile, “France 24” reported that two other Presyna victims earlier committed suicide.

Otherwise, Bertrand Virieux, a victim of sexual abuse, reported after 45 years abuses in the church in which he lived. The scandal took on enormous proportions when the number of preynas ' victims began to rise.

The cardinal of the Catholic Church of Lyons, Philippe Barbar, was also investigated for covering the crimes of Preynat. Instead of leaving Pronyat, Barbari in 2009 had appointed him to another region, while after six months he had returned to the region where he had acted earlier. Although Preynat had pleaded with him, she had continued to exercise her duty until 2015.
