What They Knew
We here at What They Knew have a lot of stories to tell. We have child sex abuse by clergy and the ensuing coverup, dirty real estate deals, police investigations, crooked politicians and attorneys, private investigators hunting victims, diversion of federal funds, funny loans from colleges run by Jesuits, off-shore shell companies, wire transfers to the Cayman Islands and in the end lots of money and lots of victims of the Jesuits.
We also have Donald J. McGuire SJ at the heart of it all. McGuire knew many people, many of which want to pretend they didn’t know him. He knew hundreds of priests (many of them also convicted of child sex abuse – we believe they call that a “ring” of criminals). He also knew many people who knew what he was doing to children and never called the police. That list includes bishops, Provincials, Jesuit Roma Curia, Jesuit Generals, Cardinals, the head of the Legionaries of Christ Marcial Maciel (more later on this), at least three candidates for sainthood and two Popes, who knew him personally, one who then simply wrote to him as “Your Friend, Joe Ratzinger“.
