Trigger warning: The article contains mentions of child abuse. Reader discretion is advised.

The Church and its abuse of young men is one of the most controversial topics in Christianity and discussions on the same are often ignored and frowned upon. However, as RadarOnline exposed how a Josef Fritzl-style Vatican pedophile ring might be brought to light years after the discovery of human bones under a church embassy in Rome, the newly elected Pope Leo XIV might be compelled to launch an investigation regarding the same.

After those remains were found, they were thought to be of a man in his 30s. This hints at the fact that perhaps he was kidnapped as a child and then abused for years before being killed in his 30s. One of the inside sources told RadarOnline, “This is the latest in a long line of s—x scandals to plague the Vatican.”

They further added, “Church chiefs want to see utter transparency from the new pope – and that means an open enquiry into this to clear it up once and for all. He calls himself a progressive pontiff – and now he’ll have to prove it with action beyond words.” 

Given how liberal and progressive Pope Leo has presented himself to be, uncovering the truth behind those skeletons now remains one his key duties as the insider further added, “Actions count far more than words and that means probes into the church’s dirty secrets have to be on the cards.”

After the discovery of the human remains, it was initially thought that they belonged to Mirella Gregori or Emanuela Orlandi, two girls, who were both 15 and vanished in the year 1983. However, it was later revealed that the bones date back to at least 1964 and belonged to a male. Talking about the investigation, one source close to RadarOnline said, ‘“It was horrific enough to think these remains belonged to the two missing teenage girls.”

They further added, “But after it emerged they belonged to an adult male has prompted fears he was held captive for years underground and systematically abused – and kept alive for that sole purpose – by Vatican officials. If the male can be identified and linked to church workers, it could finally expose the fact the Vatican shielded a pedophile ring, which is something that has been feared to have existed for decades.”

The way that the events shaped up since the finding of the bones, everything now depends on Pope Leo, who would be under pressure to start an investigation into the same. Given the fact that there has always been rumors of the Vatican being associated with the abuse of young kids and the latest findings, it would be difficult for Pope Leo to divert the attention of people or look the other way.

It now remains to be seen if the Pope addresses these concerns or tries to shove them under the carpet as is generally done by the men in power in religious institutions.
