Navy Priest Enters Guilty Plea in Sex Abuse Case
The following from the Dec 6 Washington Post article, “Chaplain Enters Guilty Plea in Sex Abuse Case” says it all:
“A Navy chaplain who is HIV-positive entered a guilty plea this morning to charges that he used his positions at the U.S. Naval Academy and Marine Corps Base Quantico to lure midshipmen and Marines into sex acts.”
“Lt. Cmdr. John Thomas Matthew Lee, 42, who is a Catholic priest, is facing a court-martial at Quantico on charges that stem from several alleged incidents from 2003 to 2007. The charges include consensual and forcible sodomy for allegedly having sex with several men; indecent acts for allegedly posing for nude photographs; aggravated assault for not informing an alleged victim of his HIV status; and conduct unbecoming an officer.”
“Lee fraternized with one midshipman over a two-year period after the student came to him for counseling and advice in 2004. Lee offered the underage midshipman alcohol, engaged in sex acts, asked him to take nude photographs of Lee and e-mailed him pornographic photos of naked men, according to the documents.”
“One source familiar with the case, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said Lee would start conversations with the midshipmen and then invite them to his office, where he allegedly had them take nude pictures of him before he would initiate sex. A charge of forcible sodomy could result if Lee used his rank to have sex with subordinates.”
Hmmmm……and Catholics believe such men have the power to command Christ to turn Himself into wafers and wine! Oh – and to “forgive” sins, as well!
We thank God yet again for exposing the wickedness of the Roman priesthood. The Catholic heart is an unregenerate heart that must be freed from the sin of Rome. Is it a sin to be a Catholic? Absolutely yes!
Pray daily that God’s grace would free many Catholics from Rome, and bless them with saving faith in Christ ALONE for the full and free forgiveness of sins – no priests, like Father Lee, for example, needed!
