Pope Francis' point man on clerical sex abuse says the failure of the church to punish bishops who covered up for pedophiles has seriously hurt its credibility and that the church must now lead the way by "humbly making the commitment to accountability, transparency and zero tolerance." Cardinal Sean O'Malley said canon lawyers and theologians were reviewing proposals for the pope on holding bishops accountable that were developed by Francis' commission of experts, which he chairs and includes two abuse survivors.
