In the course of doing my job for the past 30 years I've heard every story you can imagine and some that you can't. There was a case several years back that caused quite a stir, a woman said a priest from her parish was the father of her baby. Somehow it hit the news. It came up one day when I was at the salon for a haircut. The stylist, a very devout Catholic, asked how she could accuse a priest of such a thing. My response to her was that's not the question, the real question is how could a priest do that to a woman in his church.

Now a precedent has been set with a conviction based on the facts as presented to the court. May it be only the first.
