No one likes to be smeared, but the guy getting smeared ought to make better choices once in a while. If Fr. Poisson is a good guy, he and his new employers should welcome the scrutiny, applaud the Catholics who took precautions and did their homework.  Any balking from Kentucky priests will speak volumes against them. The loyalists at OLMC aren't too bright for throwing fits about this exposure.  Why are they trying to cover for what might prove to be a nightmare for them?  Isn't that the kind of environment most suitable for the problems Catholics fear most?

Moderator Note:
Fr. Poisson was not part of the Society of St. John, although the OP insinuated exactly that. I have modified it to remove unjustified speculation and making connections that weren't there.

Scranton, PA is a decent-sized city of 76,000+ people. It's not a small village.

No one is to be suspected of any wrongdoing merely by virtue of having an apostolate in Pennsylvania, or even Scranton, PA.
HOWEVER, Fr. Poisson joining the sinking ship that is Fr. Pfeiffer's cult here in 2018, after all the scandals have come to light (the con artist Ambrose Moran, Tetherow, Fr. Marshall Roberts, plus the usual Pablo, etc.) demands that we scrutinize Fr. Poisson with the full package of due diligence. No sane man with other options would choose such a group!

Like I said above, if I were an independent priest I wouldn't get involved with Fr. Pfeiffer (at this point, in 2018, just for the sake of my reputation. 
Yes, it’s a sad state of affairs.  Fr P has so much to offer Catholicism, if he got his act together.  He’s a tireless worker and a GREAT preacher/teacher of the Faith.  It’s a shame that he’s put himself in an awkward and uncertain position.

Not to change the subject, but "poisson" means "fish" in French.

You should lock this thread. The original by X is sufficient discussion of this priest at this point. No need to continue speculating about possible moral problems when it's obvious enough that anyone who allowed the fraud Moran to "ordain" them either has a serious shortage of intellect or is running away from something.
