Texas Catholic priest arrested after allegedly molesting woman while giving her last rites

The Rev. Gerold Langsch, was charged with assault by contact following the encounter in October. He’s currently free on $15,000 bond and is facing a year in jail and a fine of up to $4,000.

The 75-year-old priest is accused of the assault after he visited a woman in hospice care at home for complications from diabetes and administered the sacrament of anointing the sick, a sacrament of absolution.

The woman, who wasn’t identified, says Langsch first anointed her chest with holy water and then began to apply lotion on her body and massage her breast.

At one point he allegedly pinched her nipple and asked “Does that feel good?” before attempting to put his hand in her diaper, which he was unable to do.

The alleged incident and priest’s behavior left the woman shocked and confused, she told the police. She said she felt like a “nasty, dirty piece of meat.”

Police said that the reason it took nearly half a year for the authorities to arrest Langsch is because of the woman’s health, which delayed the investigation, even though she reported the crime five days after the incident, according to CBS Austin.

She was reportedly able to identify the priest in a lineup helping officers make an arrest and charge him with the crime.

So he was betting she’d die from his molesting?

The priest’s punishment should be perpetual molestation in hell.

Go to Church, or take a trip on a plane, the same people are there to grope you.

Forgot the comedian who said this...

“If S&M freaks enjoy being abused, shouldn’t you tie them up and then not abuse them?”

An awful lot of Priests who have made programs for EWTN appear to have gone bad. Fr. John Corapi comes to mind.

If he is guilty he should be shot. But I have to have more than one person’s testimony to even remove him from his position, much less shoot him.
