Your #107. I know people who should be good do bad things, but this one is not computing with me. They ought to take a closer look at the woman making the accusations. Maybe she was involved with somebody, and the priest could have been set up. Maybe he flaked out and did it, but I hope they can prove it without a shadow of a doubt. The evidence is pretty flimsy and the "reading" of the pattern sounds para-scientific.

I don't believe whatever she was subjected to was as diabolical as she is alleging.

WTOL, OH - Update,

More Victims of Priest Abuse Coming Forward
Posted at 11:45pm Wednesday
TOLEDO -- The murder case against a Toledo catholic priest has more victims coming forward. That according to a group representing victims of abuse. But these victims are not stepping up to make accusations against Father Gerald Robinson, the man accused of killing a nun 24 years ago.
Father Robinson is still in jail and we want to emphasize none of the new victims are accusing him of anything, but somehow his arrest appears to have given the victims courage to the point where SNAP Leader Claudia Vercellotti said in the past five days her phone has been ringing off the hook.

A University of Toledo religious studies expert Dr. Richard Gaillardetz said SNAP has done a great job for victims. He said all allegations should be investigated thoroughly although, there are occasions SNAP jumps the gun a bit. "I do think sometimes and I understand it, they are somewhat severe in their expectations about how quickly the church should act against accusations," Gaillardetz said.
[...]
We're told Bishop Leonard Paul Blair is in Rome, but we did talk to a diocese spokesperson who said the diocese doesn't know anything about new victims coming forward. The diocese has said in the past, it has made it a point to work with victims and help prevent any more abuse from happening.

PLEASE, please, please note that this is the most recent update and it spells out, these victims are not stepping up to make accusations against Father Gerald Robinson, and, we want to emphasize none of the new victims are accusing him of anything.

Thank you WTOL, Ohio for your journalistic integrity!

I look forward to the usual BS spin of this story from CBS and other "fair and balanced" news outlets in the morning.
