BERLIN — More than 3,600 children, most age 13 or younger, were sexually abused by Catholic clergy members over the past seven decades, a wide-ranging report has found.The study, which was commissioned by the Roman Catholic Church bishops’ conference in Germany, found that at least 1,670 church workers had been involved in the abuse of 3,677 children. That is 4.4 percent of the clergy.The study, conducted by researchers from three universities over more than four years, was an ambitious effort to understand the scale of the abuse — and how it could have been systematically covered up for so many decades.

Berlin (CNN)At least 610 children were documented as having been sexually abused by Catholic priests between 1945 and 2020 in the diocese of the west German city of Münster, according to a study released Monday.The new report from the University of Münster found nearly 200 members of the clergy committed nearly 6,000 instances of abuse.Researchers believe the true number of victims could be much higher -- up to between 5,000 and 6,000 more victims -- due to unreported cases, the report's authors said at a press conference outlining their findings on Monday.
