	The Horrible Irony By Frank Meuers Minnesota SNAP November 11, 2011 http://mnsnap.wordpress.com/ Could anyone miss the horrible irony of two incidents being reported this week? In Penn. people are getting fired, handcuffed and led away, while an outcry has arisen, rightfully so, from people wanting to know how anyone could have knowledge of sexual abuse, and not report it, and demand accountability. Those involved are going to be held accountable and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Then in another section of the paper we read about a women here in our area that has been sexually abused by a priest. His attorney says he “committed no crime”, and although it was reported the archdiocese as early as 2005, and again in writing in 2006, this man was reassigned to another parish, after being told that he “was getting help, and would never be in a position where the same events could occur again.” This charge has been denied, but evidentially Archbishop John Nienstedt, wrote to her asking her to “trust the shepherds of the church” in their belief that he was rehabilitated. This pattern has been repeated over and over by the “Shepherds” of the Catholic Church. Where are the resignations, the prosecutions. Why are these people above the law?
