Where were you when Pope Innocent needed you? I believe this was the case of a Catholic priest who, it turned out later, had never been validly baptized. In other words, he wasn’t a valid priest but he was thought to be one. Or Innocent was a big dummy who didn't know what you know. I'm not sure which. Maybe I'll check with the Dimonds.
