Catholic Bishops can still be prosecuted on a federal level

.

Mainstream news again reports that a bishop will not be prosecuted due to the statute of limitations in one particular state.

When will some reporter somewhere realize that in every archdiocese in the country the same pattern of cover-up, and aiding and abetting of pedophile priests took place, so the crimes of the bishops happened across state lines, on a national level.

The crimes of the bishops are Federal Crimes.

So instead of we as a nation just throwing up our hands and saying the statutes of limitations are past on state and county levels, why are there no FEDERAL INDICTMENTS of bishops all across the country, since they carried out their crimes in exactly the same manner in every archdiocese across the country?

This was criminal conspiracy on a national level. No county DA is ready to take on the Catholic Church, but the Federal Justice Department could.

It's a lovely dream. If we could find a real Elliot Ness federal

prosecutor to go after this criminal enterprise, he or she would

have plenty of dots to connect.

Here are a few that just occurred to me:

Baloney Mahony took over LA in 1985 -- the same time frame as:

1) The Manual was put before the bishops, but they declined

saying they already had a policy in place. Nonetheless, it

informed them of how to dispose of files without suspicion.

(Thanks, Fr. Doyle! Good job!)

2) The Servants of the Paraclete are advised by the bishops to do

just that.

3) Mahony writes the Paracletes in 1987 advising them not to

return a predator who could face criminal charges.

Gee, sounds like a conspiracy to avoid justice to me!

Jay
