On Tuesday, Nov. 10, the Vatican’s Secretariat of State will release a report on its two-year investigation into the career of ex-cardinal Theodore McCarrick, who has been found canonically guilty of serial sexual abuse and misconduct, and was laicized in 2019.
Ahead of the report, CNA looks at some of your questions, and reviews what you need to know:
Who is Theodore McCarrick?
Theodore Edgar McCarrick was born July 7, 1930 in New York City. His father died when McCarrick was three years old.
McCarrick entered New York’s St. Joseph’s Seminary in the early 1950s, after a family friend paid for him to study for a year in Switzerland.
He was ordained a priest of the Archdiocese of New York in 1958.
