I don’t know for certain that anything Fr. Haley said in the deposition is a lie, but he is plainly, knowingly entering into the public record the most salacious testimony I can imagine that has little to do with the subject at hand. Around page 140, he takes the slightest nudge from the depositioner about other signs of sexually inappropriate behavior he’s witnessed, and launches into very specific detail, naming names.
Fr. Haley’s sworn testimony of a massive, ongoing criminal cover-up by Bishop Loverde is “salacious?” It deserves thorough investigation by the Virginia state police and the FBI, since the Vatican is obviously not up to the task.
