Church abuse survivor on friend Wuerl's resignation: 'sad' but 'necessary'’

Pope Francis accepted Cardinal Donald Wuerl’s resignation with a controversial letter defending him. Wuerl was under pressure to step down after a Pennsylvania grand jury report implicated him in covering up sexual abuse. John Yang speaks to John Carr of Georgetown University. Carr is an abuse survivor. He also previously worked with the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.
