I know exactly what happens to the victims, because I was one of them.
There have been many many incidents of child abuse, grooming, and taking advantage of emotionally vulnerable adults in the churches in my area. Unfortunately, any news articles will link to my location, so I can't give them. If you're looking for studies, I'm unfamiliar with any.
If you put out an inquiry on abuse experienced in the church, I'm sure you will find many many many stories. But prepare to be angry at the lack of justice.
