I recall you defending to the HILT the Bishop of Rochester (?)--something about a priest who committed suicide after a little go-round with the Bish...

That would be Albany, not Rochester, though these two bishops are good friends since seminary, were positioned in their respective episcopates 27 years ago, and both adhere to an ultra liberal agenda.

The victim of a 'purported suicide' was Fr. Minkler, an orthodox priest, who returned from a retreat to find a message from the chancery advising him to get his butt down there asap. He was met by the bishop's legal assistant, handed a document denying that he wrote a report to Cardinal O'Connor on the scandals in this diocese, and told to sign it. He was found dead the next day, face down on a blanket placed on the kitchen floor - you know, the 'typical' suicide ( /sarcasm).

Everything east of Lake Michgan is sort of a blur except NYC and DC.

Just couldn't pull up from memory which of those two twit-Bishops was the one in question...

But they are BOTH Friends of Rembert, which has its connotations.
