Report details thousands of Catholic abuse cases in Germany since 1946

A report on sexual abuse inside the Catholic Church in Germany says 3,677 people were abused by clergy between 1946 and 2014, two leading German media outlets have said.

Spiegel Online and Die Zeit said the report they obtained, commissioned by the German Bishops Conference and researched by three universities, concludes that more than half of the victims were 13 or younger and most were boys.
