So, Vatican criticism: when one party is alleging abuse of authority by a superior party in an investigation, why was it not standard policy to appoint a third party authority to handle the matter? Isn't giving more power to allegedly abusive superior over the allegedly abused party exactly contradictory to everything we've learned from the past two decades of scandal revelations?

If on the facts and the law the Bishop were completely accurate, he is still inviting scandal by how he's managed this. I pray someone reasonable, compassionate, and circumspect will intervene.
