Yes, you are right. And we agree, totally.
Good articles on cover up within Protestant orgs:

Are Protestants concealing a Catholic-size sexual abuse scandal?"
https://religionnews.com/2015/12/07/spotlight-its-not-just-a-catholic-problem/"Some may be tempted to watch this film with disgust for the Catholic Church and a sigh of relief for Protestant churches. Such relief would be unfounded and misplaced. A number of years ago, the three companies that insure most Protestant churches reported that receiving approximately 260 reports a year of minors being sexually abused by church leaders and members. This is compared to the approximately 228 “credible accusations” a year of child sexual abuse reported by the Catholic Church. (Both numbers are much higher due to underreporting and the manner in which such information is collected and determined – that is another blog for another day.)"
To Justin's point:
"In reality, the likelihood is that more children are sexually abused in Protestant churches than in Catholic churches."
