It’s a dirty job that no one wanted. Some one had to step up and do it. Would any one begrudge these high minded lawyers their measly $650 an hour for for bringing so sordid an era to light?

Um, I do believe that the $650 per hour lawyer fee was what the church was paying to keep this sordid affair in the dark. The lawyers who were bringing this to light were on contingencies.

Looks like their lawyer lost.

At $650 an hour, you’ve gotta wonder what the church’s legal fees were over the course of this to add on top of their 100+ million separate payouts + this $666 million payout.

I’ll bet they’ve got a BILLION DOLLARS of offering plate money, property, savings, and investments from their members absolutely wasted. Might as well just flushed it down the commode.

And did their members even get any change for all this money. Nope. Not a bit. They left the same crew in charge.

It’s mind boggling. The pope’s have had their heads up their posterior anteriors.
