Pope Leo XIV, formerly Bishop Robert Prevost, faces scrutiny regarding his handling of sex abuse cases. However, survivors of the Sodalitium Christiane Vitae, a suppressed Catholic movement, defend his actions. They credit Prevost with actively assisting them, securing reparations, and facilitating a Vatican investigation that led to the group's dissolution. While Prevost's record is being re-examined, supporters highlight his instrumental role in exposing and addressing the Sodalitium's widespread abuse, emphasizing his commitment to victims despite facing potential retaliation.
