I was familiar with The Society of St. John, their association with the FSSP and their work at St. Gregory's academy outside Scranton, Pa. It has been discussed here a few times before, but not lately. Ventena's wife (sic) is very familiar with this, as I believe she was supporter of this group. They have a website, or did, at one time. I'm always in awe of you guys who know about the ancillary movements of the ancillary movements.
I compare it to those who, in addition to knowing about the Bigs in Major League Baseball, also keep up with Triple A.

Helps to be "a local." The Institute of Christ the King had a priest (near LaCrosse, WI) who also had a problem with little boys...
Bp. Burke of LaCrosse is one of the better guys out there; he had invited the Institute into the Diocese; and has had to live with this, ever since.
BTW, the priest in question held the ultra-conservative women spellbound. They thought he was the greatest thing since sliced bread.
