Teenager allegedly kills pedophile priest by shoving crucifix down his throat

A teenager in France has been arrested after authorities say he tortured and killed a priest accused of sexually abusing him and his father.

The revenge killing occurred on Nov. 4 at 91-year-old priest Roger Matassoli’s house in Agnetz, Oise, France, where the 19-year-old, identified only as Alexandre V., was working as a housekeeper, according to the Daily Mail.

Alexandre claimed to have been sexually abused by Matassoli in the past. Alexandre’s father, Stephane, was also allegedly abused by the priest when he was a child. Matassoli was previously accused by at least four others of sexual abuse between 1960 and 2000.

Alexandre was initially arrested on the day of the priest’s murder but was not charged until Thursday because he was hospitalized for psychiatric reasons. The teenager told authorities he can’t remember killing the priest, whose body was found with signs of torture.

Matassoli was removed from his duties a decade ago because of sexual abuse allegations, though the church reportedly kept him on the payroll until last year.

Stephane said his father killed himself when he found out about the abuse. Alexandre also reportedly tried to kill himself after the murder.

“This man has shattered a whole family,” Stephane said.

Evil begets evil. Forgiveness is the only out. Can’t do God’s job.


Jesus had a definite opinion on this topic.

“If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.”

Matthew 18:6

Good thing they did not correctly say it was a homosexual that was killed, that would be a hate crime!!

“So the kid is just 19? And the priest was 91? And not been a priest for decades?
I can’t see how the kid was sexually abused.”

It is odd - if it’s “decades” that would entail at least 20 years, which doesn’t add up if those numbers are correct.

Vigilante justice happens when there is no reasonable justice in a society.

I do not blame him although I’d not have used a crucifix. He may have kept many other little boys from torment.

Hey pervs... The kids grow up. Don’t you get that?

Yeah, it's kind of amazing that those who prey on kids never stop to think that they won't be kids forever. The only thing I see regrettable about this priest's death is that he made it to 91 before one of his victims held him accountable.

Small wonder that shariah law is being promoted.
Considering how the Catholic church has coveed for the (alleged) behavior of some priests.
BTW WTF - the religious institution that is most highly associated with the pro-life movement is also embroiled in rampant pedophilia.?

It is a very poorly written piece, for sure. Such awful writing. We shouldn’t have to work this hard to comprehend the story line.

The way I read it is the murderer Alexandre was working as a housekeeper for this priest and was molested by him. Alexandre’s father Stephane was also molested by this same priest. When Stephane’s father learned of the molestation of Stephane, Stephane’s father killed himself.

Seems strange that Stephane would allow the boy to go to work for the priest.

And not been a priest for decades?

You might want to re read the following.......

Matassoli was removed from his duties a decade ago

Hope that clarifies things for you..........

The crucifix may have played a significant role in the abuse. I wonder what the priests last thoughts were.

Matasolli only removed from acting as a priest 10 years ago. What I dont understand is the abused father letting his son anywhere near the priest.
