Taking part in the burial rite is former Los Angeles Archbishop Cardinal Roger Mahoney. Court documents show Mahoney actively participated in the clergy's sex abuse cover-up by moving accused priests in order to avoid law enforcement. The archdiocese ended up paying out hundreds of millions of dollars in settlement money to victims.

Mahoney's successor later barred him from public ministry in Los Angeles. Victims and their advocates say Mahoney's participation in the burial is shameful and indicates the church hasn't learned enough from its errors in handling clergy sex abuse. Jason DeRose, NPR News, Rome.

Well, I think of a number of issues that he addressed during the 12 years that he was pope. Immigrants and refugees, the environment, politics, and gender and LGBTQ plus issues. In the area of immigrants, early in his papacy, he took a trip to the island of Lampedusa to highlight the plight of refugees in North Africa.

Francis also traveled to the island of Lesbos to highlight refugees from the Middle East. He talked about refugees being especially close to the heart of God. And he reminded people of the biblical story that Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, shortly after Jesus' birth, had to flee from Bethlehem to Egypt because King Herod wanted to kill Jesus.

And he even drew attention to migrants and refugees right before the U.S. election, saying that U.S. Catholics should think about things like immigration in addition to issues such as abortion when they go to the polls.

Well, that's right. In other areas, such as the environment. His first solo encyclical of his papacy was focused on the environment. It was about care for creation, which he said God created as good. And, you know, he focused on the environment because the poorest of the earth are most directly affected by environmental degradation. This was all connected for him.
