If everything out there is true and there is no solid evidence refuting it then Corapi was leading a double life.

He was sexting and had a girlfriend, refused orders from the leadership he was under. Refused to allow his employees to talk to the bishop to clear up matters. Corapi sat on a hill of money.

When he was called out, he quit.

My understanding is he now lives in a gated private community where one can catch glimpses of him from time to time riding on a Harley.

He recently made a video saying he will lay it out and let the chips fall where they may, but he deletes any negative comments on his video.

EWTN fails to own the scandal. Instead they had their so called apologists out their screaming at that everyone was guilty of detraction. Now I listen to Limbaugh instead of EWTN.

For detraction- EWTN made corapi into a public figure. In hindsight EWTN had to of known some of the aspects of corapis downfall before it became public.

EWTN was let off the hook.

Here are some comments from other fora that discussed all this at the time it happened...Some of the quotes are from conversations I participated in...

The Plot Thickens: SOLT and the Diocese of Corpus Christi
Folks,

I was not going to comment on this topic again, however, the plot thickens and the readership has a right to know what little facts that are known. A report from January 28, 2011 states that the Diocese of Corpus Christi, others settle in suit alleging molestation. These others are the Society of Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity (SOLT), the order of which Fr. Corapi was a member. A reader at Facebook suggested the following:

SOLT in conjunction with the Diocese of Corpus Christi has just shelled out 1.96 million dollars to a young man who a priest in SOLT raped and then contracted a murder on. Bishop Mulvey then conveniantly receives a letter of accusation of everything from sex to drugs - from a pair of down on their luck losers, who for two years were quietly content to live off the departure money they accepted -who are now in financial straits, whose very house is about to be foreclosed while the head of SOLT then orders Father Corapi to "come home" and give his fortune and be a good little priest. It's inexplicable. It's improbable. It's unbelievable. There is something in this for everyone except Father Corapi and we have not seen one shred of evidence to back up SOLT's nameless investigation trio's sweeping claims. Father John has done nothing but maintain his innosense and told the people who have been touched by his ministry to be faithful to the church and to follow Jesus Christ. Frankly, if I were Father, I would tell Mulvey and Sheehan to go climb a tree.....

Again...there is as much proof of this as there is about Fr. Corapi's abuses and sɛҳuąƖ accusations. "A reader at facebook" isn't exactly a reliable source.


Well, there's more actually, the facebook comment was just a well thought out "connecting of the dots."  But the dots do exist.  The priest was real, the complaints had merit, the settlement was paid, SNAP has issued a statement on it.  It's written up in the Corpus Christi press.  Fiala even tried to escape into a Latin Mass training program in Kansas run by the SSPX.  

There are no verified dots with the Fr. Corapi situation.  

Quote from: Augstine Baker

You control a man's means and you can control the man.  This was about destroying or muzzling an orthodox priest by using moral panic and a massive orchestrated smear campaign with the usual suspects.


Do you think this had been planned a long time in advance or do you think SOLT planned it but moved the timetable forward in light of the millions of dollars going out the door to Fiala's victim?  

Fr. Corapi stated at one of his lectures that an accusation had been leveled against him around the time of the homesɛҳuąƖ abuse scandal and he was told in the bishop's office. "I believe you're innocent, but how much can you pay to make this go away?"  He said he hit the roof and when he left the bishop's office, the staff was all avoiding eye contact with him.  



I heard about the accusations of the drug abuse and the prostitutes a while ago and didn't pay much attention to it then.  I'd also heard some stuff from a family friend too just before Father went to the Hospital.  I believe it was on AQ or here where I read the accusation on the prostitutes, and it was somehow related to his hospitalization at the Mayo.  My guess is that they might have been afraid to do it while he was in the hospital.

You pick your battles and make things happen when you want them to.   I'm fairly sure that all of the approved bloggers knew about this long before it happened, probably around the time Father was in the hospital, and then you get Deacon Kendra, Elizabeth Scalia, Mark Shea, Jimmy Akin making their initial but "cautious" remarks about it being important not to make a cult-figure of one man and all that.  Then you get them stepping up their attacks as more information was leaked.

It gave the neo-Con crowd time to craft their "thoughtful" and "heartfelt" appeals and "commentary".

Tim:
As we know this battle has been going on for some time, but now it is starting to come out in the open. The masks are almost off the faces. I'm betting that by 2017 it is all out war which coincides with the date S. Lucia of Fatima was given the messages. If the Pope and the Bishops don't consecrate Russia then by 2029 it will be more murderous than Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao, and Pol Pot, together.  

This is kind of an old story to be talking about now, isn't it?

Would you want to return to an order that has sɛҳuąƖ molesters and that hires killers to cover up their crimes, not to mention a Bishop that defends these kinds of criminals?

Well, Corapi was living with his girlfriend, owned a ranch, was sitting on a fortune of money, running a retail business, and sexting, on top of the allegations of drugs.

Would his order want him to return ?

Now, perhaps Corapi refuted a lot of those things, but there is no explaining his refusal to allow his employees to break the confidentiality agreement he made them sign and allowing them to talk to his bishop.

As far as your question above Peter, Corapi himself never expressed any such sentiments I am aware of. If that was the issue for Corapi he would have shouted them from the rooftop. Instead he slithered away. They got the goods on him.

You could very well be correct. I like to think the best about someone but usually where there is smoke there is fire. I know one of the accusations against him is his entire story about being in the special forces was a complete fabrication also. It's really too bad because he helped me come over to tradition. Even though he was hardly a trad priest, he certainly got me headed in the right direction. I never did care for his JPII worship though.

We will know them by their fruit. Father Corapi led more souls to Christ than our Climate Change Pope, yet He was chastised for less than that what a ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ priest does.

You who is without sin cast the first stone.
