French cardinal resigns after conviction for failing to act on sex abuse allegations

"The prosecutor had also argued against convicting, saying there were no grounds to prove legal wrongdoing"... and yet, here we are with a cardinal being convicted in a French court. Something is wrong someplace. When the courts convict despite its own prosecutor saying it shouldn't, can there be any doubt that something has gone awry?

All good things must come to an end

Well, it's been a hell of a ride, laying rubber all over the road for the past decade. But it's time to call it a day and park the Rogue in the garage. Effective today, I am shutting down my blog to focus my attention on other endeavours. My thanks to the more than 2.7 million people who regularly joined me on these sojourns through news stories over the years that dealt with the places with issues of religion and faith intersecting with public affairs. May God bless you with a continuing desire to learn about and help disseminate the issues of faith throughout the public square. Happy trails in your continuing travels! Fr. Tim Moyle, p.p.
