ow, but never reported it to criminal or civil authorities.

Instead of being disciplined, Father Murphy was quietly moved by Archbishop William E. Cousins of Milwaukee to the Diocese of Superior in northern Wisconsin in 1974, where he spent his last 24 years working freely with children in parishes, schools and, as one lawsuit charges, a juvenile detention center. He died in 1998, still a priest.

Even as the pope himself in a recent letter to Irish Catholics has emphasized the need to cooperate with civil justice in abuse cases, the correspondence seems to indicate that the Vatican?s insistence on secrecy has often impeded such cooperation. At the same time, the officials? reluctance to defrock a sex abuser shows that on a doctrinal level, the Vatican has tended to view the matter in terms of sin and repentance more than crime and punishment.

The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, was shown the documents and was asked to respond to questions about the case. He provided a statement saying that Father Murphy had certainly violated ?particularly vulnerable? children and the law, and that it was a ?tragic case.? But he pointed out that the Vatican was not forwarded the case until 1996, years after civil authorities had investigated the case and dropped it.

Father Lombardi emphasized that neither the Code of Canon Law nor the Vatican norms issued in 1962, which instruct bishops to conduct canonical investigations and trials in secret, prohibited church officials from reporting child abuse to civil authorities. He did not address why that had never happened in this case.

As to why Father Murphy was never defrocked, he said that ?the Code of Canon Law does not envision automatic penalties.? He said that Father Murphy?s poor health and the lack of more recent accusations against him were factors in the decision.

The Vatican?s inaction is not unusual. Only 20 percent of the 3,000 accused priests whose cases went to the church?s doctrinal office between 2001 and 2010 were given full church trials, and only some of those were defrocked, according to a recent interview in an Italian newspaper with Msgr. Charles J. Scicluna, the chief internal prosecutor at that office. An additional 10 percent were defrocked immediately. Ten percent left voluntarily. But a majority ? 60 percent ? faced other ?administrative and disciplinary provisions,? Monsignor Scicluna said, like being prohibited from celebrating Mass.

To many, Father Murphy appeared to be a saint: a hearing man gifted at communicating in American Sign Language and an effective fund-raiser for deaf causes. A priest of the Milwaukee Archdiocese, he started as a teacher at St. John?s School for the Deaf, in St. Francis, in 1950. He was promoted to run the school in 1963 even though students had disclosed to church officials in the 1950s that he was a predator.

Victims give similar accounts of Father Murphy?s pulling down their pants and touching them in his office, his car, his mother?s country house, on class excursions and fund-raising trips and in their dormitory beds at night. Arthur Budzinski said he was first molested when he went to Father Murphy for confession when he was about 12, in 1960.

I'll weigh in here because these perverts piss me off: There is NO reason, whatsoever, that these pieces of shit weren't reported, put to trial, and jailed. The Catholic church should be ashamed of themselves for this cover-up. Priests, bishops, and anyone involved within the religious establishment are placed in a 'position of trust.' And, to exploit this is a heinous crime, especially given the fact that they are a part of what is supposed to be pure and just. I don't think we should be depending on hell to serve our interests here --- these dirty fucks should be in jail and registered with the rest of them.

If you leave it to the Catholic church, they will just have to say 3 hail Mary's and be gone with it...

I propose another Catholic method, burn them!

There was a lawyer, a priest, and a class of young bible school children on a week long winter cruise. A few days into the vacation the ship hits an iceberg and it begins to sink. The priest readies a lifeboat for their escape.

The kids, as instructed, form a single file line to get off the ship and, just as they're about to board the lifeboat, the the lawyer runs pass them and jumps into the small inflateable raft and demands of the priest "Let's Go!"

In shock, the priest says to the lawyer "What about the children?" The lawyer says, "fuck the children!" The priest replies, "Do we have time for that?"
