This is not a situation a blanket judgment can account for.
It is possible for a priest to mislead his parishioners, either accidental or deliberately.
But it is far more likely that the average Catholic parishioner would be mistaken, again, either accidental or deliberately.
Either way, assigning blame won't solve the problem. Proper admonishment of the sinner and proper instruction of the ignorant will.

We all have to bear responsibility for our sins - but even so, Ministers of the Gospel (Priests or Preacher) are all held to a higher standard in the eyes of God and have greater culpability since they are responsible for how the flock is and what they are fed.
I guess this translates into the have a harsher penalty.

the follower. If a teacher guides a student, and the student goes out and messes up, commits a crime, the student has to take responsibility for using his free will wrongly/sinfully; it's not the teacher's fault. The student/follower went against his conscience.

Why does there have to be fault? Sometimes it just is.

The pope can never be wrong. Just ask him. So, it must be every one else.
