Pope Francis - Homosexual child molester had diplomatic immunity, but not now

From our friends across the pond, The Daily Mail, where Americans go to get their news.

"The Holy See recalled the Polish-born Wesolowski in August, 2013, after the archbishop of Santo Domingo told Pope Francis about rumours that Wesolowski had sexually abused teenage boys in the Caribbean country.

Dominican authorities opened an investigation, but declined initially to press charges since the Vatican had said Wesolowski enjoyed diplomatic immunity. Polish prosecutors opened an investigation as well.

A Santo Domingo court, though, took the first steps toward possibly charging him last month after the Vatican said he had lost his immunity when he was defrocked and could be prosecuted elsewhere.

The office of the Dominican Republic's attorney general said Tuesday it was requesting specifics from the Vatican about how it came to its decision to put Wesolowski under house arrest and open a criminal trial against him.

Spokeswoman Tessie Sanchez said Attorney General Francisco Dominguez Brito wanted more details from the Vatican before commenting further on the latest developments in Wesolowski's case.

In an August interview with The Associated Press, Dominguez welcomed the Vatican announcement that Wesolowski had lost his diplomatic immunity and could be tried by Dominican or other courts."

Your Catholic Church at work in the world - Priest Sex Abuse Scandal - EVERY DAY

If you were trying to keep up with the constant reports of Catholic Priests sexually abusing children it would be a full time job.

Another Roman Catholic Priest accused of child sex abuse

The priest who gave the invocation at David Paterson’s inauguration as New York’s Governor was suspended on Sunday amid accusations that he had sexually abused two minors.

Msgr. Wallace Harris, pastor of St. Charles Borromeo Roman Catholic Church on W.141st St., was forbidden to perform his priestly duties pending recommendations from an advisory review board, according to The New York Daily News which quoted the Archdiocese of New York.

Msgr. Harris has allegedly committed sexual abuse 20 years ago. The monsignor has denied the accusations according to an archdiocese statement released on Sunday. The issue is now the responsibility of the Manhattan district attorney’s office. During the investigation, the archdiocese said it received a second claim concerning Monsignor Harris, who helped organize Pope Benedict's recent visit. (Snip-full article here)
