'It's sad and embarrassing': Rumors and pornography accusation disrupt Cincinnati parish
Tension between parishioners and priests at Our Lady of the Visitation in Green Township burst into public view during services last weekend.
www.cincinnati.com
Gist of the Story: a parish member, Todd Zureick, filed a complaint related to a priest (Father Bachman) possibly watching Porn on a church computer. As an added note, it seems a few years ago, a woman conned Father Bachman out of $58,000 and threatened to expose prurient information on him.
Archbishop Robert Casey, after a supposed comprehensive investigation, has cleared Father Bachman of engaging in any kind of reprehensible behavior. He has implored Church members to stop spreading rumors and besmirching the Good Reputation of Father Bachman. Also, by chance (wink wink), certainly not related to any current controversy, Father Bachman leaves for a preplanned Sabbatical next month.
My Take: Neither the Church, Archbishop Robert Casey nor Father Bachman enjoy a Good Reputation. The Church continues to use their Old Playbook: Deny, Deny, Deny, Lie, Lie, Lie. Seek plausible deniability at every opportunity.
What do you think? Has the Archbishop put out the fire?
