Below are updates of true stories of pedophile priests who committed sodomy on little boys decades ago especially the one in Poland who was found burned, the country of origin of John Paul II and his Pedophile Priests Army, that is why the Vatican is amoral and John Paul II and Benedict XVI had no morals as they did nothing to protect hundreds of thousands of little boys sodomized by the JP2 Army, read our latest article

Two of the main reasons why pedophile priests are more special and deserve more attention than other secular sexual predators are their “two angelic Catholic wings” which are: first, they belong to the most prestigious institution and are protected by the mighty Catholic hierarchy namely, the Vatican, the Pope and their Bishops; and second, they are perpetual wizards of the flesh of God, they can reincarnate the flesh of Christ into hundreds of pieces by reciting the Transubstantiation Formula which was reinforced in Ireland, read our related article Benedict XVI blames "mystery" for JP2 Army -John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army in Ireland's Eucharistic Congress.

The Vatican and/or the Catholic Church is the wealthiest institution on the planet because of the prime-meat-of-Christ in the magic or sorcery of the Eucharist. If each of the 1.2 billion Catholics paid a dollar a week to eat this prime-meat-of-God, that would give the Vatican 1.2 Billion Dollars each week, or 62.4 Billion Dollars a year for the 52 weeks.
.Now there are Catholics who give millions for their real-estate reassurance in The Father’s House in Heaven. And New York is one of the wealthiest Catholic Diocese in America. So bring in the no-limit of the Statute of Limitation so that those “two angelic Catholic wings” JP2 Army- John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army in New York can be brought to justice because their victims continue to live the “Priestly Hell” they left behind.
New York’s 9/11 attacks led to the extreme security measures in our airports...therefore it is time that New York also remove its Statute of Limitation on child sex abuse and bring justice to children abused by New York’s JP2 Army-John Paul II Pedophile Priests Army.
New York, wake up!

Catholic Pied Pipers Bill Donohue and Dave Pierre of TheMediaReport are throwing missiles at The New York Times for publishing that The Children Deserve Justice. Dave Pierre is like the little boy who cried, “Wolf! Wolf! Wolf! as he repeats a Catholic mantra of financial devastation: “These ‘window statutes’ if enacted, would have a devastating financial impact upon the Catholic Church, as scores of anonymous claimants would line up to make decades-old allegations against now-deceased offenders.” Oh, really? The Catholic dioceses across the United States have paid more than 3 billion dollars to more than 15,600 victims of more than 6,100 confirmed pedophile priests within 10 years time since priest pedophilia first erupted in Boston, and where exactly is the diocese that is bankrupt today? NONE!
.
So go ahead and sue New York Diocese and it will resurrect the following year with millions of dollars, if not billions of dollars already hidden in the Vatican Swiss Banks. But of course, they will pretend and say, “Fund-raising events” for the diocese instead.

Opus Dei controlled the 27 years papacy of John Paul II and is therefore the foremost guilty party who aided and abetted and covered-up the John Paul II Pedophiles Rapists-Priests Army. Opus Dei wrote most of John Paul II’s books and writings and to ensure their perpetuity as “All things Catholic”, they want JP2 to be beatified and canonized now by Benedict XVI so as not to take any chances on other future popes.

We will post here the ongoing debate in New York concerning the Catholic Church’s lobbying politicians to set the shortest “statute of limitation” for child victims of sexual assault (especially by pedophile priests) to have their day in court.
Those Cardinals and Bishops like Cardinal Anthony J. Bevilacqua, Bishop Finn and criminal Cardinal Bernard Law deserves special attention because they are powerful protectors of pedophile priests, Cardinal Bernard Law transferred 80 pedophile priests from one parish to another in Boston. No other secular pedophiles have such powerful protector. Opus Dei’s Golden Cow that the laity and the whole world are suppose to blindly “pray, pay and obey” to, especially to the biggest Opus Dei Golden Cow Blessed John Paul II who did and said nothing to stop pedophile priests since 2002, he lived on for 3 more years, and what he did was to papal fart at us Bostonians by promoting Cardinal Bernard Law to Rome after we forced him to resign in disgrace in Boston, read our related article, Rome glorifies Bernard Law http://popecrimes.blogspot.ca/2012/01/boston-10th-anniversary-and-bernie-law.html.
Christ condemned only two groups of people, the Pharisees and the pedophiles with a millstone on their neck. That is why John Paul II the biggest Opus Dei Golden Cow got the biggest millstone around his neck for protecting criminal Cardinal Bernard Law and Fr. Marcial Maciel, read about it here Heil Satanas JP2 Patron Saint of Pedophiles, Pederasts Rapists-Priests!

There is no statute of limitation (i.e., a time frame set by government in which a crime may be prosecuted) in the U.S.
The New York Times reported this week that the Catholic Church has been lobbying politicians regarding time limits on sexual assault. And, rather than make it easier for victims to face their perpetrators, the Church may be hoping to do just the opposite. It seems the Church doesn't want children who were sexually abused to have the opportunity to prosecute the priests who they claim have harmed them. What about the risks posed by fuzzy memories or evidence contamination, after all? According to the Church, these are two of the many reasons that boys and girls molested by priests shouldn't get their days in court.
But alas, this Catholic fears the Catholic Church's reasoning is simply (and pathetically) nothing more than a flimsy, convenient façade. Catholic leaders want the horrific crimes perpetrated by priests on little boys and girls to go away because it hurts the Church, not because evidence gets old or memories fade. Catholic leadership doesn't want to admit to the abuse, or risk exposing how many in its ranks looked the other way or actively hide the abuses they witnessed. The Church doesn't want to deal with the emotional backlash of these God-less crimes against children, or pay these once trusting victims for their pain and suffering. With over $2 billion spent by the church in legal fees, victim payouts and the like, it's safe to assume the Church wants to limit the damage to the coffers as well.
Rather than do what is Christ-like -- what is right and what is good -- the Catholic Church hired outside consultants to make it even harder for victims to face their alleged perpetrators in criminal court. And, by protecting its own selfish interests, it inadvertently provides safe haven for rapists and pedophiles the nation over who benefit from time elapsing on their crimes.
Jerry Sandusky, the accused serial pedophile currently on trial for raping and sexually molesting several at-risk boys over the span of years, hopes to benefit from his state's time limits. Sandusky's defense team is keenly aware of Pennsylvania's time limits, and is desperately fighting to keep Jerry out of the hell of prison by making the hell the child victims allegedly suffered at his hands seem like old news. Should a rape victim be told that, because he/she couldn't tell his story to the right people in time, he no longer deserves legal recourse?
When the statute of limitations for sexual assault expires, the only ones who lets out a sigh of relief is the rapist and his/her abettors. Predators who have not been caught should live in constant fear of prosecution, an ever-present reminder of the atrocities they exacted. They should be forced to look over their shoulders until their last breaths are drawn, fearing the moment when they may be held accountable for their crimes. The victim cannot forget what happened, why should sexual criminals or our legal system or the Catholic Church be afforded such luxury?
A friend of mine was raped as a young girl over the period of several years by her stepfather. She carried a child's sense of guilt and shame well into her adult life, holding herself responsible for what he had done to her. When she finally came to grips with what had happened, she was told it was too late. She couldn't send him to prison for what he had done to that very little girl. Knowing that she might not even find a lawyer who would take the case, she eventually sued her rapist for damages in civil court. Thankfully, the arrogant pedophile admitted to the sexual assaults in a pre-trial deposition. She received a cash settlement (he was as wealthy as he was stupid) that covered some, but certainly not all, of the costs of her therapy. Her pedophile rapist never did one dime of time behind bars, and her emotional wounds plague her to this day. She is in her 40s.
A sexual assault victim shouldn't be told that the criminal clock rain out because we don't want to flood the court system with old cases or that people's memories fade making them somehow unreliable or that it's just plain hard to keep all that evidence hanging around in storage. All victims deserve justice, regardless how inconvenient it might be for the rest of us.
Time limits for the criminal prosecution of sexual abuse is pro-abuser, not pro-victim. Sexual assault victims don't get to forget. Neither should the sick, twisted members of our society who harmed them.

Don't allow church to rob long-ago child sex abuse victims of chance for justice
NEW JERSEY
The Star-Ledger
By Star-Ledger Editorial Board
For some victims of childhood sexual abuse, it may take years before they can speak about the crime. When they finally do, they shouldn’t hear “Sorry, too late.”
That’s what the Catholic Church wants to say to them. That it’s unfair that institutions like theirs must defend themselves against accusations that sometimes are decades old.
Across the country, the New York Times reported last week, the church is lobbying for strict time limits on victims to sue their attackers and those who protected them. For victims of long-ago sexual abuse, lawsuits are often their only path to justice.

Dave Pierre wrote about "...as scores of anonymous claimants would line up to make decades-old allegations against now-deceased offenders". Well, tell that to the Jews to forget Hitler and the Nazis because they are dead (except for some alive Nazis living la vida loca in South America).

Introduced in March, the Child Protection Act of 2012 did anything but. The bill was a decoy, designed by the church. Yes, it eliminated the statute of limitations for victims to sue their attackers — but only for future cases, meaning past victims would be robbed of their chance for justice. It also limited responsibility to the actual abuser — protecting the bishops and their bank accounts.
Fortunately, lawmakers recognized the decoy. Instead, a stronger bill is moving through the Legislature that eliminates that statute of limitations completely. The Senate Judiciary Committee considers that bill Thursday.
Before the Assembly’s version was okayed last week, Catholic bishops tried to scuttle it, too.
The priest sex-abuse scandal has cost the Catholic church $2.5 billion since it broke a decade ago. Its interest in burying the past is obvious. But redemption isn’t that easy.
Lawsuits are a chance for child victims, now grown, to have a voice.
The absence of victims’ voices let Cardinal Timothy Dolan give $20,000 to pedophile priests and call it “charity,” or let Penn State’s president cover up Jerry Sandusky’s alleged crimes and call it “humane.” Victims’ voices encourage others, recalling old abuses at Delbarton and Horace Mann schools.
The church is right to look forward, but wrong to want to escape responsibility for past crimes. Without victims’ voices, much abuse would still be taking place. Their voices finally stopped the crimes.
It would be criminal to silence them again.
The Children Deserve Justice

Editorial
There has been no shortage of child sex abuse scandals during the legislative session that is going into its final week in Albany — the Penn State case and the cover-up trial of Msgr. William Lynn in Pennsylvania and, closer to home, the abuse allegations at Syracuse University and the private Horace Mann School in New York. That makes it all the worse that lawmakers have done little to fix
Gov. Andrew Cuomo could have done a lot more to lead the way. On Friday, he appeared to reach agreement with the State Assembly and the Senate on a new measure to require coaches in sports programs at universities in
All the more disappointing, then, is that Mr. Cuomo has declined to get behind a more urgent and politically challenging step: expanding
Recent highly visible allegations of sex abuse are a reminder that victims can easily be many years into adulthood before they are ready psychologically and emotionally to talk about what was done to them. This is especially true when they are up against powerful institutions — like the Roman Catholic Church or

On Front Page, NY Times Trumpets Efforts to Financially Cripple Catholic Church
UNITED STATES
TheMediaReport
Dave Pierre
Several states are mulling legislative efforts to lift the statutes of limitations in cases of sex abuse for a one or two-year period. These so-called "window statutes," pushed by left-wing legislators and left-wing pundits, would enable people to sue organizations for abuse no matter how long ago the alleged incidents occurred.
These "window statutes," if enacted, would have a devastating financial impact upon the Catholic Church, as scores of anonymous claimants would line up to make decades-old allegations against now-deceased offenders.
But there's a catch: Public schools are exempt from these legislative proposals. So if a teacher raped, sodomized, or molested a student – even in recent memory – the victim has no legal recourse whatsoever. (InNew York
But if a person alleges that a Catholic priest – even one that is now long ago deceased – molested him 65 years ago, that accuser could receive a sizable cash settlement.

These so-called "window statutes," pushed by left-wing legislators and left-wing pundits, would enable people to sue organizations for abuse no matter how long ago the alleged incidents occurred.
These "window statutes," if enacted, would have a devastating financial impact upon the Catholic Church, as scores of anonymous claimants would line up to make decades-old allegations against now-deceased offenders.
But there's a catch: Public schools are exempt from these legislative proposals. So if a teacher raped, sodomized, or molested a student – even in recent memory – the victim has no legal recourse whatsoever. (In
But if a person alleges that a Catholic priest – even one that is now long ago deceased – molested him 65 years ago, that accuser could receive a sizable cash settlement.
NYT FEIGNS INTEREST IN CHILD ABUSE
Catholic League
Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on an editorial in yesterday’s New York Times:
The June 17 editorial in the New York Times on the sexual abuse of minors is aptly titled, “The Children Deserve Justice.” Too bad the editorial board doesn’t really believe it. That’s a strong charge, deserving of proof. Here it is.
The editorial gives half-baked kudos to New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo for pressing a new measure that would require college coaches to report child sex abuse (the Times says he could have done more). It also praises New York State Assemblywoman Margaret Markey for proposing a bill that would allow an accuser 10 years after turning 18 to press charges (instead of the current five-year period); it would also allow a one-year window for alleged victims to file suit in civil claims in cases where they were previously barred from doing so.
The editorial is right to say that Gov. Cuomo could be doing more: he could support mandatory reporting of suspected child abuse to apply to all professionals, including counselors. It’s not the bishops who are holding back this needed change: it’s Family Planning Advocates, the lobbying arm of Planned Parenthood, and the New York Civil Liberties Union. Why the resistance? Because Planned Parenthood counselors learn of cases of statutory rape all the time, and they don’t want to be blanketed with a mandatory reporting law. But don’t look for the Times to press for this change. So much for the justice that children deserve.

NE - National Catholic official to push Lincoln's bishop on abuse
Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests

A Catholic official is promising to visit Lincoln Bishop Fabian Bruskewitz and push him to comply with the church's national abuse policy, which Bruskewitz has "consistently broken for a decade," a victims group says.
Al Notzon, who heads a church panel overseeing the church hierarchy’s abuse crisis, publicly pledged to personally visit the Lincoln diocese and try to make sure that local church officials obey the US Conference of Catholic Bishops’ “Charter for the Protection of Children, adopted in 2002. He made the comments last week at the bishops’ summer meeting in

“We're grateful for this promised effort, but doubt it will succeed," said Barbara Dorris of
Bruskewitz has been one of the biggest opponents of the bishops’ abuse procedures (colloquially referred to as the “Dallas Charter). He has publicly admonished the USCCB for allegedly forcing bishops to honor it - something Bruskewitz believes is not in their power to do. He has also repeatedly balked at allowing church-hired consultants into his diocese to “audit” their systems, policies and practices.
Priests appeal: Defence says court was 'selective' in appreciation of evidence
Times of
Defence counsel for two priests who have appealed against child abuse convictions, argued in court today that the court had been selective in its appreciation of the evidence presented in the case.
Godwin Scerri and Charles Pulis, both members of the Missionary Society of St Paul, were sentenced to five and six years in prison respectively for sexually abusing 11 young boys in their care.
Their appeal started being heard last Friday.
Picking up where Dr Giannella de Marco left off last week, Dr Joe Giglio said there were several discrepancies in the evidence of two victims and he therefore wondered how the magistrate had arrived at the moral certainty required for a conviction.
Haworth priest's book tells impact of church sex scandals

HAWORTH — A local priest is providing a rare, intensive look inside a Roman Catholic priesthood tarred and shaken by the child sex-abuse scandals.
The crisis didn't just harm victims and test the faith of believers, asserts the Rev. Stephen Fichter, pastor of Sacred Heart parish. It also affected priests innocent of any wrongdoing.
Some priests were angered at diocesan leaders for their lack of action, and others felt shame for the church and for themselves as its representatives. There was paranoia they could be accused falsely, and many said the incidents made them wary of interactions with congregants, especially kids. Some even stopped wearing their collars in public for fear of heckling.
Those are among the findings of the recently published book, "Same Call, Different Men: The Evolution of the Priesthood Since Vatican II," (Liturgical Press 2012), in which Fichter and co-authors explored changes in the priesthood over the past 40 years through interviews with hundreds of priests nationwide.

Fort Worth Star-Telegram
Editorial
The financial costs of the child sex abuse scandal that has rocked the Catholic Church for a decade continue to climb, including legal settlement costs for the Diocese of Fort Worth.
But at least there are indications that the church and the local diocese have passed through the worst of the storm. Credit that to a strong program to prevent abuse from happening again and to vigilant pursuit of that program.
Bishop Kevin Vann, leader of the Diocese of Fort Worth since 2005, announced a settlement agreement Thursday with a man known publicly only as Doe 26, who was a 9-year-old altar boy at St. Maria Goretti Catholic Church in 1978 and was abused by Monsignor James Reilly. He is the 26th person to come forward to accuse Reilly.
