The answer to your question is yes. It was only after his conviction that Pope Francis agreed to a second dismissal. The protection of children from abuse by clergy under canon law depends on whether the child happens to be living in a jurisdiction with adequate civil reporting laws. The Inzoli case followed the same advice that Cardinal Bergoglio gave to an Argentinian bishop – suspend the offending priest, and put him on a canonical trial. There was no mention of reporting to the civil authorities. Argentinian law then had no reporting requirement. The canonical trial system is similar to the European continental system which is an investigative process, more like an inquest or grand jury investigation under the Anglo/American system. There is nothing wrong with that kind of process, except that the canonical trial is subject to the strictest secrecy.
