super redhot take: implement a lifelong exclusion for being around unattended kids for any priests that are caught pedophiling. Mandatory bright red wrist bracelet wearing for life. And exclusion from ever being a priest again.

Include any higher ups in the church who knew about it and didnt immediately report it to the state law enforcement. There should not be any second system of justice within the priesthood. They follow existing government laws around abuse of children or they are acting criminally, no exceptions. If the pedopriests take off the bracelet they report it immediately to law enforcement or they can face life in prison, still wearing the bracelet.
