Monsignor Gustavo Zanchetta, a close friend of Francis and a convicted homosexual abuser, is in Rome.
According to MetroNoticias.com.ar (20 November), he is being treated in the Italian capital "because his trusted doctors are there".
Zanchetta has heart problems and high blood pressure. It is likely that the first of these two conditions is the reason for his medical trip.
On 4 March 2022, the former Bishop of Oran was sentenced to four years and six months in prison for simple homosexual abuse, aggravated by the fact that it was committed by a recognised clergyman against seminarians of the Diocese of Nueva Oran.
However, Zanchetta was allowed to spend his "prison time" in the Virgen del Valle convent of the Conceptionist Sisters, located in the 9 de Julio district of the city of Oran.
It is unclear who authorised the transfer and where the funds to pay for these trips come from.
Caminante-Wanderer.Blogspot.com (21 November) points out that Francis is directly responsible for creating and covering up the Zanchetta scandal.
Zanchetta - like so many other homosexuals - has always been particularly close to Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio.
He was one of Francis' first episcopal nominees. As soon as news of his nomination broke, a large group of priests from Quilmes, Zanchetta's home diocese, sent a letter to Francis saying that Pastor Zanchetta was not fit to be a bishop.
He is alleged to have offered a person a job in a school in Florencio Varela "in exchange for some [homosexual] service" and to have abused seminarians under his command. He was also accused of 'economic mismanagement'.
Of course, Bergoglio didn't care. Zanchetta was consecrated and enthroned. But four years later he resigned for 'health reasons'.
The secretary of the diocese of Oran denounced him because he had found on his mobile phone, in addition to pornography, several selfies in which Zanchetta appeared "naked, with his genitals exposed and in a masturbatory pose".
Some time later, a complaint was lodged by two seminarians from the diocese of Oran. They claimed to have been subjected to homosexual abuse by Zanchetta on several occasions.
Zanchetta fled to Rome. Instead of sending him back to face his crimes, Francis appointed him, who was accused of economic mismanagement, as an adviser to the Administration of the Patrimony of the Apostolic See, with a salary of several thousand euros.
But the pressure grew and Zanchetta had to return to Argentina to stand trial. He was found guilty and sentenced to four and a half years in prison. He did not last long in ordinary prison, but was soon placed under house arrest in the Conceptionist convent in Oran.
Caminante-Wanderer.Blogspot.com points out that this is yet another example of Bergoglio's duplicity and double standards.
"Zero tolerance" is Francis' motto when it comes to Father Fernando Cornet, who was "excommunicated" last week for denying Francis' legitimacy. Bishop Pedro Martinez also received 'zero tolerance' when he decided that women could not be altar servers, after which he had to resign from his diocese. Bishop Strickland received "zero tolerance" when he criticised Francis for teaching heresy.
"However, there is tolerance for those accused and convicted of [homosexual] sexual abuse. In such cases, the mercy of Francis is shown in all its splendour, like the plumage of a peacock".

Sounds unworthy. A more complete source than the comic book.

Like a rat to cheese!
You didn’t read what I said. It seems you are in the rush to judgement
Unlike you, I find Wiki to be an unworthy source.
Where’s the fire and brimstone?
What facts in this Wiki do you disagree? That there is no inflammatory language or rididulow cartoon with hopeful thinking that expressed inflamatory language is correct?
It seems pretty simple that this priest seems shifty. The Vatican has also investigated.
You appear to be the only one inflamed by any critiques of Jorge's Homos.
Your defense of Jimmy Martin blessing sodomite "couples" has been noted.
