And what did we learn, kids? That if you can get away with it for long enough before the jig is up, you can get away with it.

And none of your closest confidants and allies (like maybe your fellow US cardinals?) will be put in the hot seat or investigated with any meaningful intensity.

And when you pass away, you'll still get a nice funeral Mass with a bishop or two present.

And at worst, someone might refer to you as "sometimes not uncontroversial" at your funeral.

Well, yeah. He's passing beyond the reach of earthly justice.

May he find repentance before he has cause to wish earthly justice had been more swift!
