Today's [Monday, May 17, 2010] Archdiocese of Omaha's Catholic Voice online says it all:

"Former Omaha priest accused of sexual abuse in Texas also was subject of Omaha complaint"



By Catholic Voice.

"Father John M. Fiala, a former Omaha priest accused of sexually abusing a minor in Texas, was the subject of a complaint in the Archdiocese of Omaha eight years ago.

"The abuse in Texas is alleged to have occurred in 2007 - 2008 when Father Fiala, who joined the Society of Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity (SOLT) when he left Omaha in 1996, was serving at a parish in Rocksprings, Texas, located in the Archdiocese of San Antonio.

"Father Joseph Taphorn, chancellor of the Archdiocese of Omaha, said local church officials were told in the spring of 2002 that Father Fiala made sexual advances against an individual sometime in the mid -- 1980s, when the individual was a minor.

"The archdiocese notified the Sarpy County attorney and Father Fiala's religious superior in Texas, as well as the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas, where Father Fiala was serving at the time...

"According to the San Antonio Express - News, Father Fiala is the subject of a civil lawsuit and criminal investigation in Texas..."


It's like this:


When Archbishop José H. Gómez assures us in Today's Catholic -- for Friday, May 7, 2010, that "Aunque no habia alegación de mala conducta sexual -- While there was no allegation of sexual misconduct..." was he telling the truth??!!

Or, does he even care??!! :)

Like, you know?

¡Guau! Wow! :)
