The boys were chosen because they were starving and desperate, he claimed, according to Il Messaggero newspaper. The former policeman used to recruit the boys, mostly eastern European immigrants, outside a gay bar named Twink near Rome's Termini train station. He reportedly sat in his Fiat Panda - marked "Emergency Blood" to avoid parking fines - to make his selection....

....The boys were paid €150-€500 (£130-£425) to perform sex acts in church premises across the capital. Poggi also accused the former Carabinieri of selling consecrated hosts for satanic rites. Poggi reportedly presented documentary and photographic evidence to police in the company of two senior Vatican clergymen who vouched for his credibility. Poggi identified the nine clergymen, including two senior church officials and a religion lecturer. Three people have been placed under formal investigation.

There is a Catholic Caucus thread titled Breaking News: Rome's Gay Clergy which mentions that as many as four standing bishops may also be implicated in the matter.

Then Father Malachi Martin was right, and the letter from Our Lady of Fatima should’ve been revealed.

Italian investigators have opened an inquiry into claims by a convicted homosexual pedophile priest that an underage prostitution ring has been operating inside the Holy Roman Church with homosexual clergymen hiring rentboys for sex inside churches.

There…fixed it.

Alex Murphy:

Oh, there goes Alex yet again, chewing on his old slipper. This defrocked homosexual child abuser Patrizio Poggi seems like SUCH a credible witness and source.

In other news, have you heard the juicy gossip from The Tales of Maria Monk??? Or maybe a more contemporary Jack Chick comic book?

Uncle Miltie:

If you happen to be married and your wife goes away for a couple of weeks on business or to care for a relative, does she need to worry about you and the newspaper boy??? Probably not, but that scenario makes as much sense as the one you are advancing.
