About Giuseppe Carraro
- Giuseppe Carraro (26 June 1899 – 30 December 1980) was an Italian Roman Catholic prelate who served as the Bishop of Verona from 1958 until his retirement in 1978.
- He also served as the Bishop of Vittorio Veneto until his transferral to the see of Verona.Carraro has been implicated in the sexual abuse scandal perpetrated against deaf-mute students of the Provolo Institute.
- There have been a string of allegations against the late Carraro himself which prompted the cause for his beatification to be suspended around 2010 pending the results of the investigation.
- The cause resumed in 2012 after an investigation cleared Carraro of all charges despite discrepancies still remaining over the late bishop's actions.He was considered a man of holiness and this allowed for his cause of beatification to be introduced in 2005 at which stage he was referred to as a Servant of God.
- He now has the posthumous title of Venerable after Pope Francis - in 2015 - confirmed his heroic virtue.
