The Byzantine Rite Catholic priest Fr. Basil Hutsko (pictured above) was physically assaulted in the sacristy of St. Michael Byzantine Catholic Church (https://www.stmichaelbyz.org/) in Merrillville, IN following the Divine Liturgy (Mass) recently.
The assailant choked him before slamming his head on the ground and yelled, “This is for all the kids!” – likely referencing the recent reports of the sɛҳuąƖ abuse of minors in Pennsylvania. Fr. Hutsko was initially left unconscious from the attack and is now recovering in a local hospital.
It appears the attack was random, as Fr. Hutsko has not been accused of any crimes himself.
The Eparchy of Parma is part of the Ruthenian Greek Catholic Church, an Eastern Catholic Church in full communion with the Pope.

Lord have mercy. Most Holy Theotokos, save and protect him.

Probably some perverted ex-Catholic with a bad conscience ... raging because deep down he knows he's going to hell, using the pedophilia scandal as just an excuse to spit their venom. That's what they do.

Just another reason to conceal/carry (legally) at church.
