Fourteen priests involved in a sex abuse scandal in Chile — which has rocked Pope Francis's papacy — were stripped of their priestly duties yesterday. "Fourteen priests no longer are allowed to carry out their duties... These priests have taken part in actions that may be civilian crimes as well as within the church," the bishop's office in the city of Rancagua said.
