Tell you what... let's assume for a moment that he is a catholic priest:
Does it mean that he can have a Buddhist shrine at home?
Does it mean it is okay that he wants to be alone with altar kids without even properly identifying himself?
Does it mean it is okay to have someone in a position of authority with these suspicions be right next to the school kids without proper identification?

There is a reason why there is a thread discussing weirdness from this man claiming to be a priest.
right.

his squishy and questionable background, combined with his Buddhist home altar, Buddhist junk shop, and what you posted above is enough for me to declare "no way!".

The more this gets unraveled the worse it gets... if Wiest is part of the cult you mention and the school board is fine with that then I know I could never return to OLHC.
School board should demand that he presents a driver's license
, no excuses. A good priest would want people to know and a good priest would even lose sleep over the parish having suspicions and asking for ordination and identification details. Wiest on the other hand, seems to take this lightly.
Evidently the school board asked him and he said he lost it.
To the school board, that was the end of the story.

That has zero to do with validity. Do you understand the distinction? A man may indeed be downright evil but still confer valid sacraments. I have not seen anyone here, including me, claim that he is a good priest or that he should not be investigated, or that anyone should receive sacraments from him.
If he is a priest, he should be addressed as Father, not to honor him but to honor HIM.
If he is a priest, he would be an option in an emergency situation. If I were near death and my choices were no priest or valid but weird priest guess what? I would choose the weirdo.

Interesting.
from your link:So, however weird it is, Wiest might actually be validly ordained.
Wiest is obviously not a priest.

Do you buy into the following? (from the link)

"Jesus personally ordained Abbatetto the priesthood and God told Abbate that he was born on Mars. After he died at age seven, he went to heaven. However, he only stayed there briefly as God wanted him to save humanity from perdition. Therefore, he was transported to earth and reborn in a family in Isnello." (Reincarnation?)

Did you miss this part?

Abbate “ordained” Schweikert and after Abbate died, "Archbishop" Schweikert was enthroned in 1968 as the Celestial Messenger’s successor.

Schweikert “ordained” Rematt and in 1988 Schweikert died and was succeeded by "Archbishop" Rematt.

None of them were valid: not Abbate, not Schweikert, not Rematt and not Wiest.
