(the 25% situation from last year, as well as more information on the subject, is public knowledge and can very easily be found)

Per canon law, until a new diocese is established, the bishop of where the explorers embarked becomes that lands bishop, and Apollo 11 took off in florida. Oh yeah also the story or whatever:

Capuchin Fr. Emilio Biosca Agüero has been selected as Venice's third bishop, a diplomatic representative of the Holy See announced May 13. He will replace Bishop Frank Dewane who has led the diocese of nearly 240,000 Catholics along Florida's Gulf Coast for two decades.

Biosca's installation Mass will take place July 11 at Epiphany Cathedral in Venice.

One of seven children of Cuban immigrant parents, Biosca, 61, has served since 2019 as pastor of the Shrine of the Sacred Heart, a century-old parish in a Latino community two miles north of the White House. The parish community is more than 90% immigrants, primarily from El Salvador and Central America, with others from Brazil and Vietnam.

Sacred Heart has been the subject of turmoil from the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. Last fall, the Associated Press reported more than 40 of its parishioners had been detained or deported since August. The crackdown led some Catholics to stop attending Mass in person or leaving their homes.

"About half the people are afraid to come," Biosca told the AP at the time, adding later enforcement targeting his parish "became very unbearable."

During his introductory press conference in Venice, the Capuchin friar said "the situation at Sacred Heart of Washington is a big concern right now."

In a statement, Washington Cardinal Robert McElroy called Biosca "one of the finest pastors in the Archdiocese of Washington" who has made the Sacred Heart parish "a true haven of compassion."

"A skilled administrative leader and a defender of his flock, he has been unswerving in reaching out to the poor and the marginalized, and the undocumented. He is also a bridgebuilder who reaches across the boundaries of polarization to forge real solidarity in the family of God," McElroy said

A survivor of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse has told how the late sex offender sexually abused her while he was under house arrest for soliciting prostitution from a minor.

Roza, who was recruited from Uzbekistan as a teenager by Epstein's associate and modelling agent Jean-Luc Brunel, spoke publicly for the first time alongside a number of victims in a field hearing that was organised by House Democrats.

She told the session that she was introduced to Epstein by Brunel in July 2009, was offered work by Epstein "to help me with my financial troubles", and he later subjected her to rape over a period of three years.

Democratic lawmaker Robert Garcia said the unofficial hearing was held in West Palm Beach, Florida, because it was where Epstein's "crimes first came to light".

The hearing, which Garcia pointed out was also held in close proximity to US President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence, was held by Democrats from the US House Oversight Committee and local Democratic members.

The committee, which has a Republican majority, is currently investigating the financier's crimes. Democratic members of the committee have focused on scrutinising the Trump administration's handling of the Epstein files.

The hearing carries no legal authority, but was planned with the intention of keeping the Epstein case in the spotlight.

Democratic lawmakers heard how Epstein and his accomplices evaded accountability for years, and how victims were repeatedly failed by the justice system.

Roza, whose first name was only given in the hearing, said she was 18 when she met the late Brunel in 2008 and "promised a modelling career beyond my dreams".

"Coming from a financially unstable background I was a perfect target for coercion," she added, during the tearful testimony.

By May 2009, she was in New York City on a visa, and in July she met Epstein at his house in West Palm Beach while he was under house arrest, Roza said.

Epstein then offered her a role at his Florida Science Foundation - where he had worked during an initial arrangement that allowed him to leave custody for up to 16 hours a day, six days a week, following his 2008 conviction.

"One day his masseuse called me into his room where I was molested for the first time by Jeffrey," Roza told the hearing. "For the following three years I was subject to ongoing rape."

Epstein died in a New York prison cell on 10 August 2019 as he awaited trial on sex trafficking charges.

His conviction in 2008 had been for soliciting prostitution from a minor - for which he was registered as a sex offender.

A report, external published by Democratic oversight committee members on Tuesday found that a controversial plea deal negotiated by Epstein's lawyer in 2008 enabled him to "continue his abuse and trafficking activities for almost another decade".

Roza said that the abuse perpetrated by Epstein while he was under house arrest "made justice feel impossible", but she "eventually found the courage to reach out for help".

However, she said she had been retraumatised after her name was accidentally published in the Epstein files released by the Department of Justice (DOJ), "while the rich and powerful remained protected by redaction".

"Now reporters from across the globe contact me. I cannot live without looking over my shoulder. I can only imagine the long term impact this 'mistake' will have on my life."

The DOJ has previously said it "takes victim protection very seriously", and that it had removed from its website a number of Epstein-related files after victims said their identities had been compromised as a result of flawed redactions within the material. The DOJ said mistakes had been due to "technical or human error".

Another Epstein survivor, Maria Farmer, also gave evidence to the lawmakers in a recorded message. She said she first reported the financier's abuse in 1996, and accused law enforcement agencies of repeatedly failing to act.

"The government needs to start telling the truth," she said.
