Geneva - Switzerland's Catholic Church is embroiled in a series of sex

sins and abuse must be confronted.
One 45-year-old priest committed suicide last Sunday after what his family
denounced as a "media hunt," when it was revealed he had been accused in
2001 of indecent behaviour with a minor back in the 1980s, before he had
