UNITED STATES -- There have been a lot of stories lately involving priests and sex abuse, so part of me hates to add another log to the fire. This case, though, is a jaw-dropper. A priest accused of sexually assaulting a Minnesota girl, age 14, is still working for the church in India, his native country, doing clerical work. Officials have no plans to send him back to America to face charges. Love this quote:

"We cannot simply throw out the priest, so he is just staying in the bishop's house, and he is helping me with the appointment of teachers," said the Most Rev. A. Almaraj, the bishop of Ootacamund. "He says he is innocent, and these are only allegations. ... I don't know what else to do."
Yes, it's a puzzle, practically a Zen riddle. I'll give you a hint, though: The solution involves buying your man a plane ticket.
