In Chile, Reverend Fernando Karadima has been accused of sexual assault by four men. Father Karadima is one of the most influential and respected priests in Chile, sometimes even considered a "living saint." These four men, who were once devout followers, have said that they were sexually abused for up to two decades.

These people say that such a well-reputed man in his position could never do such a thing. Chile's Catholic Church has had to deal with many cases of sexual abuse recently, and are still deliberating as to how to deal with the case.
