Several people hospitalized Eighties at the Nazareth FoundationA sheltered center for minors affiliated with the Diocese, located on Joan Miró street in Palma, condemned this one observer repeatedly raped dozens of children over a decade. This guy, FCMF, currently approximately 65 years old and residing in Perushe later established a home reception center where abuses continued in Son Sardina. The victims did not report the facts until one of them, Toni Estela, released a video recorded last October. abusive and forces him to apologize. “We could have done something 30 or 40 years ago, but I’ve already forgotten and regretted it,” the man admits.
After the release of this video other victims who admit they are breach by this man when they were kids and they were admitted to Nazareth. These victims requested anonymity, although they confirmed that everything Toni Estela said was true and that the number of children who had been raped was in the dozens. “We’ve never talked about it amongst ourselves, but we all knew it,” says one of them.
In the center of Nazareth, under the Diocese of Mallorca, sexual assaults were repeated for more than a decade in the eighties. At that time, there were a hundred children in the reformatory. All men between the ages of six and fifteen. They joined the EGB and broke up when they finished the eighth grade.
The victims’ story is very similar.“I was ten years old when I entered Nazareth because my family could not take care of me,” says one of them. “It’s 1982 and I’ve been there for five years. This teacher was about 25 years old at the time and used to take a small group of kids to camp on weekends. He had a cushioned van and took us to the beach or to the Serra de Tramuntana” . On one of these getaways, this man was harassed for the first time when they were left alone in the van one Sunday.
“He then acted normally as if nothing had happened,” the victim recalls. “By the next weekend, it happened again. Since then, the attacks have recurred regularly. During the five years I was there, he sexually assaulted me almost every two weeks.”
There were also attacks in the same center. The monitor slept there all week. At dawn he would go to the bedroom, where there were about twenty children, and take some of them to his room. Victims were aware that there were more abused children, but They never talked to each other about what happened to them.. They were all quiet. And they remained silent for years, although many suffered. severe psychological sequelae.
“I forgot, it’s like it never happened,” says one of them. “Actually, if they had asked a year ago, I would have denied it, I would have said it was a lie. But I go to a psychologist and now I’ve been able to start talking about everything that’s happened to me.” I.”
After all these years, it’s hard to point to the large number of children who could be sexually assaulted at the hands of this man. They all agree that there will be several dozen, and point out that there may be around seventy.
Decades later, Toni Estela is the only victim to condemn these sexual assaults. He did so before the National Police in 2016 and repeated his complaint in a court in Palma last January. His account coincides with the previous one. “I entered Nazareth in 1983 when I was eleven and was there until I was fourteen. During that time I was raped by this man repeatedly, at least once a week. He came into the room where he was at night for about twenty people. We slept the boy or someone else in his room. sometimes several people were very loving and kind at the same time, he would trick us and give us gifts after harassing us.
