	German Bishop Accused of Physical Abuse of Children Catholic Culture March 31, 2010 http://www.catholicculture.org/news/headlines/index.cfm?storyid=5887 GERMANY -- Three women and two men who were former residents of a Catholic children's home have accused Bishop Walter Mixa of Augsburg of physically abusing them in the 1970s and 1980s. Calling the allegations "absurd, untrue, and obviously invented to defame the bishop," a diocesan spokesman said that the diocese reserved the right to take press charges or file a civil suit against the accusers. The nation's justice minister criticized Bishop Mixa in February after he attributed the abuse scandal in part to the sexual revolution. Bishop Mixa also serves as the bishop of the nation's military.
