“I don’t know squat about the Kennedy dude but I know for a fact that my father paid off the catholic church to get an annulment from my mom. It was a $1000 “donation” straight to the Monsignor at St. Monica’s church in Santa Monica, CA.”
Monsignors do not give annulments. Tribunals do. Your story doesn’t work. The only money involved in annulments is the fee for the Tribunal’s work. Those fees don’t even cover the cost of the work, nor are they even required as the poor do not have to pay them.
My wife and I both received annulments. The administrative fees were $600.00 for the each of us.
Don’t know anything about fees or tribunals. I’m telling you what happened. My dad gave the monsignor the $$ and he the annulment flis through the approval process. Don’t know what the monsignor did with it but if my dad doesn’t give him the $$, he wouldn’t of gotten the annulment at St. Monica’s then he would have tried something else.
Not a story. Not my opinion. It’s fact.
