To Fall on Deaf Ears of the Hearing

Rev. Lawrence C. Murphy from St. John’s School for the Deaf in Wisconsin has been molesting around 200 boys at the school. And the Deaf are now able to speak out and be heard to the public, although they have been ignored for over 50 years. Vatican officials have failed dismissed this man who died 1998 still as a priest. The priest, hearing, but fluent in American Sign Language, felt that God wanted the boys to know about sex. Way to be the goddamn voice of God.

"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."

"In 1993, with complaints about Father Murphy landing on his desk, Archbishop Weakland hired a social worker specializing in treating sexual offenders to evaluate him. After four days of interviews, the social worker said that Father Murphy had admitted his acts, had probably molested about 200 boys and felt no remorse."
