AI Summary:
John Smyth mistreated children in the 1970s and 1980s in the U.K. And Zimbabwe before fleeing to South Africa. In November, an independent review found the Anglican Church covered up 'horrific' abuse. A South African panel released its own report in which it said the Church should have reported him. Archbishop Thabo Makgoba apologizes to members of the church for putting congregants at risk. Last year, Justin Welby resigned following an inquiry that found that the Church of England covered up “horrific” abuse by Smyth. The 251-page report said he had abused 30 boys and young men.
