The pope won't end up in court because he's the head of state of a foreign country, and will remain so until death.

As said previously, is isn't considered a state by the UN
Therefore, the pope cannot be a head of state.
Sadly, he won't be put on trial simply because he's the pope.
Where the justice in that is, I don't know.
I'm also a bit dismayed by the number of folks saying it'd be better to just brush it all under the carpet because it'll be too upsetting for the victims.
