Description
The Vatican was aware of Abbé Pierre's actions since 1955, according to the book Abbé Pierre: la fabrique d'un saint (Abbé Pierre: The Making of a Saint). The book, published by two journalists who consulted the archives of the Holy See, reveals a dark side to the French icon, including anti-Semitic remarks and opaque management of charity funds. The Church in France has promised to shed light on these revelations. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
