It seems this story is from 2014.
At any rate, I didn’t know a priest gig could bring in such big bucks.

So he was basically a totally amoral homosexual narcissist.

Reminds me of the case of Paul Shanley, one of the pedophile priests who were "enabled" by Cardinal Bernard Law.

Shanley was a serial abusers of teenagers, possibly of both sexes. He was shuffled off to San Bernardino, where...

"He spent most of his time in Palm Springs with another Boston priest in exile, running a hedonistic inn catering to gay men. Every other weekend, he drove 50 miles to San Bernardino to say Mass at a Catholic church where parishioners were unaware of his other life."

Shanley is (or was, as of November 2015) in a Massachusetts prison.

Here's a Boston Globe story on his case.

Shame on Church Militant for using the term “defrocked.” The word simply does not exist in a Catholic context. It is meaningless.

It is unclear whether Arsenault has been suspended or laicized.

Defrock and jail for embezzlement. He’s not a priest. He’s a fraud. Lock him up.

Another product of Vatican II. “If it feels good, do it.”

"Arsenault was the bishop's right-hand man."

(HA) Now that's funny... :)

Would appear the defrocking is for embezzling, not homosexuality?
