Vatican's $30 Million Money Scandal

Let’s see how the pope juggles scandals: Italian officials have seized $30 million from a Vatican bank account and are investigating top Vatican bank officials—including its director general and chairman—for money-laundering. The chairman, Gotti Tedeschi, is not himself being investigated for money laundering; rather, authorities are looking into omissions in his bank’s financial records. The Vatican says it’s “perplexed and surprised” by the investigation.
