Mmm. Priests who break the seal of confessional can't have their excommunication lifted by confessing to another priest. It can only be done by the Holy See.

The last time it happened for breaking the seal, afaik, was in 2018 when Ezinwanne Igbo was excommunicated.

Right, but if they do it and don't get caught they can get their soul saved by confessing to another priest, who presumably can't break the seal of confession to out them.

A regular priest can't grant absolution to another for breaking the seal of the confessional.
