Seal of Confession Broken by Catholic Priests

And of course it is completely rational and prudent to avoid the priest until (if ever) you discover the answer.  I would, too, out of an abundance of caution. And I would pray an awful lot about it.  But what troubles me about anyone experiencing any range of doubt about a confessor -- and especially if one assumes a report or rumor to be true, correctly or incorrectly -- is that it potentially jeopardizes one's relationship with any confessor.

We Catholics are supposed to be able to trust that our sins are held in confidence, so I would be more concerned about resolving this one particular incident for my peace of mind.  The human mind being what it is, it would be very natural to unconsciously carry that lack of trust into one or many other confessionals, of various priests.  How unfortunate that would be for anyone's peace of mind and soul.  We should sense a freedom to disclose everything, because the Devil makes it hard enough as it is -- always tempting us to hold back.

So I would nevertheless look for a priest I can trust --someone I feel quite comfortable with outside of the confessional -- and of him I would ask spiritual advice to deal with a feeling of betrayal.  A good priest will guide any sincere seeker carefully about such a sensitive issue.  

It is unfortunate, but there is no question this priest violated confessional seal.

if you had all the data, you would agree.

I suggest you pray for this priest rather than wasting your time attempting to extrapolate, guess, draw conclusions and make recommendations.

Listening device rumored here, too, in sspx chapels.

I noticed, once, at our fraternity of St. Peter chapel, which we haven't attended since being profiled, that women were kneeling near the confessionals, leaning to hear what was being said.  I also once saw a woman (who wrote a book on modesty that most families own) standing next to the open window of the confessional (on the priests side).   I yelled at her and she left.  I hope the priest heard me.

Don't need to go all the way to India for that.

It happened to me, here in the USA, more than once.

For those who are familiar with the former satanist, now Catholic, Zachary King; he has reported that they have operatives in churches attempting to cause problems. Since he was raised Baptist, his role was to break up Baptist churches. However he reports that there were others assigned to break up Catholic churches or chapels. Just brainstorming here, wouldn't it be possible for them to do either of the possibilities mentioned in this thread, either:
1. using a listening device or
2. having someone listen outside the door
and then they could use the information to MAKE IT APPEAR as if the priest violated the person's privacy when in actuality, an operative used the information in order to tell the person the info they had confided in the confessional. Some people would then lose their faith. Others would never trust the priest again. Very few people would go to the priest and say what is going on here, and even fewer would look for a concealed listening device or watch out for eavesdroppers.
