Juan Alberto Gómez, a 47-year-old technician in magnetic resonance imaging residing in Málaga, recently revealed the traumatic experience of being sexually abused by a priest during his adolescence. After harboring this painful secret for over three decades, he shared his story in an interview, expressing the emotional turmoil and shame he endured. Raised in a devout Catholic family, he had served as an altar boy, where he initially felt safe. However, his trust was shattered when a new priest manipulated him under the guise of helping him with his feelings. Juan Alberto has since rebuilt his life in Spain but continues to grapple with the psychological scars of his past. He hopes that by sharing his experience, he can help prevent similar abuses and bring awareness to the issues of sexual abuse within the church.
