As far as Christian doctrine is concerned, the answers are 1) true, 2) true, 3) false.
Whether or not you go to hell depends entirely on whether or not you're saved through faith in Jesus Christ. What you do during your life has no bearing at all on the fate of your immortal soul, because the default fate of all humans, no matter how morally they live or how evil they are, is an eternity of hellfire due to original sin.
And yes, that means that every priest who ever molested a child still goes to Heaven. They just get, like, a stern talking to from the Almighty or something.
And add to that, any abusive priest knows that the Church will go out of its way to protect them.
