Quote from: Tiffany
I wonder why the NO dismissed him when so many others they moved around and give passports to so they escape legal proceedings. Was it because the law enforcement convicted him? So many others law enforcement did nothing even though reports were made.

His canonical case explains that it was 'because he actually admitted it to the local authorities'

Quote from: Fr. Andrew Greeley
But even in Chicago, the ring of predators about whom I wrote in the paperback edition of “Confessions” remains untouched. There is no evidence against them because no one has complained about them and none of their fellow Priests have denounced them. Those who have been removed are for the most part lone offenders who lacked the skill to cover their tracks. The ring is much more clever. Perhaps they always will be. But should they slip, should they get caught, the previous scandals will seem trivial…. They are a dangerous group. There is reason to believe that they are responsible for at least one murder and may perhaps have been involved in the murder of the murderer. Am I afraid of them? Not particularly. They know that I have in safekeeping information which would implicate them. I am more of a threat dead than alive.
Fr. Andrew Greeley, Archdiocese of Chicago, Furthermore! Memories of a Parish Priest, 1999, pg. 80, died 5-29-2013

It sounds like he took a plea deal on a different charge. There are so many cases though where the NO has covered things up and law enforcement did nothing. The PA dioceses are against statute of limitations reform too.

Some people take rigid positions on things that don't call for it, and take lax positions on things that do. They end up digging a hole for themselves and, rather than climb out when its shallow enough, they end up deeper and deeper, until they are finally so deep that it takes a miracle of grace to get them out.

MA,

Since you know of this priest and you live in the area do you have any idea why the Resistance group in Philadelphia would accept this man instead of a real priest? Do they not understand that he is defrocked? Do they not recognize the authority of the Pope in this matter?

I'm as baffled by that as I am the Colorado and Minnesota groups inviting Moran to their missions.

From the sermon it sounds like they are driving to him.

Good question.

I would think it meant he wasn't "playing ball" with his superiors or had gone off the deep end. :thinking:

Marrano's hook-ups didn't happen by chance.
Rather it is all is being arranged from the rectory at OMLC, which is the seat of the Mexican.
These schemes can all be traced to his laptop/server in the main room.
