This Week In Holy Crimes

Over the last seven days...

Arkansas: Pastor Shane Montgomery resigns after confessing to sex with underage boy he met online.
Florida: Rev. Gatson Smith convicted for stealing county grant money intended for the poor of Liberty City, Miami's most destitute neighborhood.
England: Father Paul Symonds arrested for molesting a boy in the 1970s.
British Columbia: Pastor Larry Robert Collins sentenced to 15 months in prison for making an internet video simulating the rape of an underage female. Collins also created fake online accounts pretending to be the victim and directing people to view the video.
Ohio: Pastor Christopher Evans arrested for sexual battery on a female minor. Bonus: Evans is his church's youth pastor.
Tennessee: Pastor John Franklin McCarroll acquitted of indecent exposure in famed "pastor at the glory hole" case. McCarroll reportedly told an undercover cop (in a public park restroom over an hour from his home) that he wanted "some of that young stuff" and then waggled his dangle through the hole. Bonus: McCarroll denied his come-on by saying that the cop "wasn't all that young" anyway. Meow! Extra bonus: McCarroll has frequently preached against same-sex marriage.
Minnesota: Pastor Grant Junior Grayson indefinitely committed for multiple counts of molestation of preteen boys.
Newfoundland: Father Robin Barrett arrested for possession of child pornography, much of it "involving infants." Barrett has been relieved of duties by his Anglican diocese.
Uganda: Father Mutebi Bakka arrested for murder after leading a mob to a man he accused of stealing from his Catholic parish office.
Ontario: Father Kenneth Graham Gibbs charged with molesting two more underage girls following his November conviction on eight similar charges.

This Week's Winner-
Ireland: Bishop Donal Murray has offered to resign over his role in the widening child molestation cover-up scandal after being censured by the Dublin Archdiocese. Murray spent the week in Rome meeting with Ill Papa, who plans to issue a pastoral letter expressing his “outrage, betrayal, and shame." The Irish order of the Sisters of Mercy have offered a $193M settlement for the role of their nuns in the abuse and molestations that routinely took place at Ireland's Catholic orphanages and schools. So far over 2000 former students have shocked the Irish public with their stories.
