By Nicole Winfield, AP - The Vatican office responsible for processing clergy sex abuse complaints has seen a record 1,000 cases reported from around the world this year, including from countries it had not heard from before — suggesting that the worst may be yet to come in a crisis that has plagued the Catholic Church… “We’re effectively seeing a tsunami of cases at the moment, particularly from countries where we never heard from (before),” (Monsignor John Kennedy, the head of the congregation’s discipline section) said, referring to allegations of abuse that occurred for the most part years or decades ago. Argentina, Mexico, Chile, Italy and Poland have joined the U.S. among the countries with the most cases arriving at the congregation, known as the CDF.
