Judge should take in pedophile priest

Posted July 23, 2009 11:00 pm

I applaud Chuck Goudie's article about Fr. Fred Lenczycki future and the pedophile situation. The Catholic leaders have buried their heads in the sand on this issue numerous times and the children have paid the price. These men are criminals and should be treated as such, not favored, not ignored and certainly not released to abuse more innocent souls.

Anyone who aids criminals in other circumstances is charged with breaking the law. Why does that not apply to the cardinals and bishops who have knowingly enabled these pedophiles?

When did the Church become a dictatorship who helps the criminals & punishes those who speak out against the injustices? We need to stop the bleeding in the open wound of the Catholic Church. Maybe this judge should have Fr. Fred move in with her family.
