Sexual abuse cases involving members of the congregation
Cases involving sexual abuse of children and vulnerable adults by some EBC monks covered several decades from the 1960s into the 2010s. The cases led to criminal convictions, imprisonment and the laicization of some accused or convicted monks. They formed part of the wider Catholic sexual-abuse crisis in the United Kingdom.
