Who's Kane nailing today?
- Thread starter bkmtnittany1
- Start date
Pitt fans for their consistent half truths regarding the number of National Championships they have won.
LOL.....Zwick is a far-left-side of the intellectual bell curve douche.
Kane has done more - in the last three months - to illuminate the State's failings wrt CSA than have ALL of the previous AGs over the last 40 years. And it ain't even close.
FWIW......it was my understanding that the PC is taking place at UPJ (University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown)
Which might be congruent with the Altoona-Johnstown Diocese stuff......or with something else in that same region.

Wow...just announced charges...
I think this pedophile ring which some have alluded to in the past could be very real !
Actually list what payments would go to kids based on the type of deviant behavior that existed... Crazy shit !
Selfishly... Anyone care to speculate... In any way how this helps? Hurts? Current Sandusky Scandal? And Penn State?
Wow...
Three friars in the Order who currently live out of state...but, who are apparently going to turn themselves in for charging.
Of course, pennlive has messed up the story with a misleading headline and lede which calls these guys leaders of the diocese. In fact, they were members of the Franciscan Order...not leaders of the diocese. They did have control over assignments. Further, the reporter tweets on pennlive make mention of the fact that Bishop Adamec may not have known about the Baker, who is the main subject here. That does not excuse the Bishop, but does shed more light on how this all came down.
To say that there was pedophile ring in the Altoona-Johnstown Diocese is an understatement of vast proportions. Three friars have been charged with letting a known pedophile, who had a past history of abuse, become an athletic trainer at Bishop McCort. He committed suicide after being charged. So far over 100 former students have come forward and were paid. Now more are coming forward. The AG report 3 weeks ago used confidential Diocese records they seized with a subpoena. It listed almost 50 priests and the crimes they committed on 140 children. These reports had interviews and notes from the meetings with families and the priests who admitted to many of the accusations. A hotline was set up after that was released and 225 people, some in there 60's and 70's, have called and it hasn't stopped. That is close to 500 children, god knows where it stops. Like Boston, and everywhere else, they moved these cretins from church to church. The AG reported District Attorneys in both Blair and Cambria Counties sat on evidence and didn't pursue cases after meeting with church officials. Two of those D.A's are now judges. One priest, Father Saylor, the police and fire feared because of his influence in local government. In the report, he said he picked the chiefs of police, the fire chiefs even the mayors. This is just beginning and its unbelievable as to its scope and the utter contempt the Church hierarchy had for children and the law. They operated as they were above the law and these communities were their fiefdoms. The tide is turning. The Catholic Conference of Pennsylvania and the Insurance lobby have successfully bottled up statute of limitation legislation in Harrisburg. The pressure is building and it will change. It has to!!
