hino is not a Catholic but a Lutheran, does he intend to convert? From what I understand of the RCC style, hino would have to do a staggering penance for what he is doing to Terri and has done with Jodi, before they'd even think of letting him in.
I thought he already took the classes with Jodi.
The only remote possibility for him to become Catholic would require him to permanently separate from his adulteress (who is Catholic but apparently CINO) and then repent, confess and be forgiven for assisting in taking the life of his wife Terri.
I am pretty confident that HINO and his adulteress' planned 'marriage' will never be recognized by the Catholic Church -as ONLY the Pope could do such and I don't see a Pope ever doing it.

you're right, not to mention over a year long marriage preparation course.
