Prosecution of Roman Catholic Pedophiles Moves to the Next Level

Father Neuhaus began in the LCMS and helped  Paul McCain seem important to Rome.
Neuhaus also defended one of the worst predators in the Roman Catholic Church.

New development in RCC pedophilia scandal. For the first time, a priest handler is being put on trial for transferring priests in trouble for pedophilia to other parishes. In contrast to Cardinal Law's case, BTW, he was only put on the witness stand but never was accused of anything:

Opening arguments are scheduled for Monday in Philadelphia in the first case in which an official of a Roman Catholic archdiocese has been accused of protecting abusive priests by moving them from parish to parish.

Monsignor William Lynn has pleaded not guilty to conspiracy and endangering the welfare of a child.

GJ - Whatever can be said of Roman Catholicism is also true of the Lutheran synods, which do permit marriage, as I recall.

The bigger the scandal, the more likely an institution (whether church or school) will cover it up. Perverse networks also enable criminals to thrive in the atmosphere of denial and transfer.

Proportionately, the government could prosecute just as many Lutheran church executives.
