Who? What? Where? When? Why?!!!! I’m assuming the priest molested his Grand Daughter or something equally egregious.

If he hadn't died, should he be given some kind of medal?
You made it sound like it’s justifiable if it’s against a priest.
I always assume that,if no reason is offered in the article.
The last one I recall was a sheriff who shot a judge to death in Kentucky, no reason given. Later it came out, something about the sheriff’s daughter.
