(article 2) Cardinal George Pell referred the case to an independent panel, the church said in a statement, after nearly a week of media reports that questioned Pell's earlier handling of the case. (article 7) Pell said Tuesday that his 2003 letter was "badly worded" but stood by his conclusion that no rape had occurred. (article 7) He made apology for sexual abuse a major part of his visit, meeting victims and vowing to keep pedophiles out of the priesthood. (article 5) Victims of church abuse in Australia are calling on Pope Benedict to issue a public apology during his visit for World Youth Day, July 15-20. (article 4) Broken Rites, which represents abuse victims in Australia, has a list of 107 convictions for church abuse, but says the real number of cases is far greater as only a handful go to court. (article 4)
