                         of His Former Secretary's Abuses.

Donald Wuerl was installed Roman Catholic archbishop of Washington, D.C., on June 22, 2006.  Prior to that date, he spent eighteen years as the Latin Rite bishop of Pittsurgh.  The following subject matter pertains to Wuerl's days at Pittsburgh; the days when Wuerl built a propaganda machine and climbed through ranks of the Sodomized Catholic Church.

The Names of the Ill-treated are Withheld


The names of persons ill-treated by the diocese that Wuerl ruled for eighteen years do not appear herein.

The Preliminary Notes Section
(This section was designed to read like Cliff Notes)

Credibility

The credibility of the following narration is anchored to numerous pieces of evidentiary sup-
port.  The evidence includes the tape recording of a harassment provoked by Wuerl's per-
sonnel, if not by Donald Wuerl himself, in an act of economic retaliation.  Such a recording
is permissible under the federal statute found in USC 18, Ch. 119, Sec. 2511(2)(d).

The evidentiary support also includes numerous pieces of personal mail, along with a num-
ber of postmarked envelopes.  A couple of the envelopes carry the return address label of
the official residence that Donald Wuerl possessed from 1988 to 2006.

An additional piece of evidence is a five page witness account found on a police department's citizen's report form.  It was written by an unaffiliated third party.  There are other pieces of evidence, as well.  Some of the visual evidence can be viewed by clicking on the links provid-
ed directly below.  There were configured to open in a new window:

Timeline


The physically invasive actions of Wuerl's former secretary occurred from 1990 to the mid-
dle of 1997.  At least one of the priest's homosexual antics took place in Wuerl's Warwick Terrace residence.  The predatory conduct actually didn't end until one final ploy was com-
mitted during the 1997-1998 Christmas season.  As far as concerns the retaliatory conduct,
it occurred in 1998 and 1999.  When the homosexual was reported, he was the president
of one of the Pittsburgh diocesan high schools.  Wuerl appointed him to that school in 1996.  The priest was reported for long-term homosexual conduct in 1998.

The Priest Approached his Prey First


Concerning the young man who was targeted by Wuerl's former secretary, he was first ap-
proached by the priest on the steps of a church, when the young gentleman was a teenager.
The priest presented himself as an undefined type of sociology researcher, claiming that he
was seeking to learn what draws young people to church.  The bottom line is that the young gentleman did not approach the priest first.

An Outline of the Priest's Conduct


The priest's conduct consisted in a physically invasive form of sexual harassment that was accompanied by a misrepresentation as fraudulent as a wolf in shepherd's clothing.  It con-
sisted in the priest preying on a situation that will not be detailed herein, and it involved the modus operandi reported by the 2002 media as the one commonly used by predators.

A Diplomatic Way of Describing it

There are forms of sexual harassment that consist in episodes of one-way contact that re-
peatedly result in the harassed person either diplomatically pushing away the harasser or
moving away from him.  Sexual harassment is not limited to verbal aggression.  That is to
say, there are forms of sexual harassment where a priest does not keep his hands to him-
self.

Predatory cases are sometimes cloaked under the pretense of spiritual direction, where the aggression is disguised behind authoritarian voice patterns.  The cases don't involve gullible prey.  Rather, they are marked by a priest's badgering of his intended target, for the sole purpose of achieving physical contact.  They involve a priest abusing his power and influ-
ence, in creating the illusion that he is speaking in the name of God and Vatican II, when
he is doing nothing more than orchestrating an intrusion.  The authoritarian pretense is only
the first stage of the ploy.

That which Constitutes Predatory
Conduct and Abusive Acts


It is not required for a cleric to be a serial rapist, in order for him to constitute a predator.
He simply has to engage in conduct that consists in him targeting an individual and then ma-
nipulating ways to physically intrude on the the targeted prey in as severe a degree as he
can, in his quest to consummate his lusts.  It consists in a priest using a person as "an ob-
ject of sexual gratification.
"

Donald Wuerl's Sought-for Definition of Sexual Abuse


The Pittsburgh Post Gazette reported on October 27, 2002 that Wuerl "fought for the
broad meaning of sexual abuse
."  The same thing was reported by the same newspa-
per in slightly more detail, on May 29, 2003.  Pursuant toWuerl's sought-for definition,
the acts of his former secretary constituted sexual abuse.

Predatorship Includes Taking Advantage of
Persons who Underwent Nightmarish Tragedy


A predatory priest can easily prey upon a traumatized person, by presenting himself as an intervening lifesaver, when in fact, he is nothing more than a disingenuous wolf.  This consti-
tutes the abuse of an impaired person, being that a traumatized state is a state of impairment.
If the priest is told about a volatile home environment, he can one day use knowledge of it against his victim, in manipulating the more violent persons in that environment to attack his
prey for him.  It consists in the priest using knowledge that was confidentially entrusted to
him by his victim, in order to bring additional harm to that victim.  It consists in the betrayal
of trust.

The Personal Mail is the Tale of the Tape


Several pieces of the previously mentioned mail sufficiently constitute the tale of the tape.
They erase any doubt as to the motives, mindset, emotionality, and psychosexual orienta-
tion of Wuerl's former personal secretary.  They also prove that the former secretary was
well aware that his targeted prey was suffering greatly in his personal life.

The Most Convincing Witness Account Given by the Accuser

To start, the name of the former secretary accused of physically intrusive sexual harassment
is Father James Torquato.  Secondly, his accuser claimed to have been at Donald Wuerl's Warwick Terrace residence, during the time when Torquato also lived there.  Now, being
that no third person ever saw Torquato's accuser enter or leave Wuerl's home, as far as is known.  So, how would anyone know that Torquato's accuser was telling the truth? 

      ANS:  He was able to describe the interior of Wuerl's home, and the details of his
                 description was undeniably convincing.
 
      In a notarized letter sent to Donald Wuerl in February 1998, Torquato's accuser
      described Wuerl's Warwick Terrace home as follows:

          "
Furthermore, in order to show you that I am not telling you a false-
            hood, let me describe your Warwick Terrace home, in order to show
            you that I was at least there.  Now, remember that Fr. Torquato
            would usher me in that house, as if he didn't want anyone to see me.
            Anyway, the carpeting in Fr. Torquato's room was orange.  When-
            ever I got into the elevator, there was some kind of pole-shaped
            extension which you could accidentally hit with your head, if you
            weren't looking at what you're doing.  He had shelves with a lot of
            books.  He had a lot of CD's.  The bathroom was definitely to the
            right when you walked in.  The shower had sliding doors.  There
            were several icons on stands and on the shelves.  My favorite one
            was the one of Jesus, as an adult, with a solemn [perhaps sad ex-
            pression on his face.]  The kitchen sink reminds you of a school
            cafeteria's sink.  Fr. Torquato mentioned that the picture above
            the fireplace, in the living room, fell down by itself.  He also told
            me that a squirrel infiltrated the house, and that you told him to
            go get it.  I remember hard wood floors and high ceilings.
"

The most convincing part of the account was mention of the orange carpeting and the pole-
shaped extension in the elevator by "which you could accidentally hit with your head, if you weren't looking at what you're doing."  Mention of the picture above the fireplace myster-
ously falling and the infiltration of a squirrel into Wuerl's home were the other features that
gave Torquato's accuser credibility.  Adding to that account  the cards, letters, and post marked envelopes which Torquato mailed to his future accuser is what makes his accuser convincingly credible. 

As far as goes the allegation of the retaliation, its most pertinent piece of evidence was the
tape recording of the harassment performed upon Torquato's accuser.  The previously men-
tioned police department citizen's report form helps, also.  Plus, there was another person caught in the middle of that retaliation.  He constitutes a corroborating witness.

The additional person caught in the middle of the Torquato retaliation once had a medium security clearance from the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections, as well as the securi-
ty clearance needed to carry a concealed firearm.  This person also received the security clearances required to be a license Pennsylvania insurance agent.  Such clearances mostly involves a person's honesty.  In addition, the accuser of  Torquato had his share of security clearances, being that he was a care taker of mentally disabled adults.  Therefore, this case
is one where the accuser of the invasive homosexual antics is not lacking in credibility, and where the witness to the two waves of retaliation is not lacking credibility.

The fact that James Torquato immediately ensued with a retaliation gave credence to the al-
legation that he committed long-term and physically intrusive sexual harassment. 
The retali-
ation was merely an extension of his unruly and invasive acts of physical sexual harassment.
He did not have the temperance to refrain from mauling his accuser.   Thus, he did not have
the temperance to keep composed when he learned that he was reported to Wuerl.  The in-
vasive sexual harassment temperament and the retaliatory temperament were one and the
same.
 

The Former Personal Secretary's Whereabouts


At the time of this writing, Wuerl's former personal secretary is in active ministry.  He's the pastor of a parish in Carrick, Pennsylvania, despite the fact that his retaliatory conduct has already proved him to be a danger to others.  Donald Wuerl,  in having let the retaliations
cause jeopardy and achieve damaging effects, proved himself to be a far greater danger to others.  It was equivalent to having reported a fire to the fire marshal, only to see shortly thereafter, the arrival of dutiful personnel armed with flame throwers.

The Office of Priestly Formation, formerly called
the Office of the Training for the Priesthood


Cardinal Wuerl has been influential in a department known as "the Office of Priestly Forma-tion."  In other lands and at other times it has been known as the Office for the Training for
the Priesthood.  The title, "priestly formation," is an embarrassingly gay sounding title which
gives the impression that seminarians are being fitted into a stylish, cosmetic, and elitist motif.
That is to say, the title, "priestly formation" in no way instills images of naturally inclined men
training for positions of service to God and mankind.  Concerning this, it is acknowledged
that the church in America has been plagued with an infestation unnaturally inclined seminar-
ians, as well as active sodomite priests, during the years when Donald Wuerl was a major
contributor to the Office of "Priestly Formation."

Donald Wuerl was installed at the Pittsburgh diocese on February 12, 1988, and his former secretary was ordained on July 1, 1989.  This means that the abusive priest was ordained un-
der Wuerl's watch.  The abusive priest, therefore, is a sample of Donald Wuerl's version of  "priestly forming."

Rewarded with a National Executive Position
in the Office of "Priestly Formation"


The priest in charge of investigating Donald Wuerl's former secretary, in 1998, became the Executive Director of the Secretariat for Vocations & Priestly Formation,
in 1999.  This re-
sulted in him being stationed
at the headquarters of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.  He is a Pittsburgh diocesan priest who later became a chaplain to Benedict XVI, on June 29, 2006.  In 2009, he was appointed to be the Bishop of  Anchorage Alaska. 

Whenever we sent communiqués to either his office or to Donald Wuerl's office, either a new harassment would ensue or an ongoing retaliation would intensify.

The Tally Sheet, Stated for the Record


The scorecard goes as follows:  One person was the target of the priest's aggression, another
person saw to it that the priest would be reported, and three persons got caught in the middle
of the first wave of retaliations.  Two persons then got caught in the second wave.  In the pro-
cess, a big bad wolf of collective resources eventually blew down three houses.

Of the three persons caught in the retaliations, one now lives in a Southern state, one of them
moved to an American state west of the one where Wuerl's former diocese is located, and the other person's location will be kept entirely undisclosed.

Lower & Upper Respiratory Disease Is Involved

One of the three person's caught in the Pittsburgh diocese's retaliations suffers from a severe form of asthma, central sleep apnea (where all breathing stops during sleep), and an upper-
respiratory disease.  Objective medical findings entered into his medical records have included:

1] increased AP diameter
     (This is the barrel chest commonly found in advanced
       cases of emphysema and in cases of chronic asthma
.)
2] turbinate swelling.
3] bilateral wheezing.
4] prolonged expiratory phase.
5] upper respiratory erythema (redness).
6] exorbitant provocation test results.
7] objective skin whealing, during placebo-controlled
     skin testing, while testing negative for the placebo
.

Additional evidentiary support includes signed and notarized lay witness testimony of per-
sons who witnessed him ill.  "Choking" was used in more than one witness account which
was accepted as evidence in the gentleman's disability case.  He was adjudged as having a
full and severe physical disability, years ago. 

The disability has included numerous occasions of profuse dry heaving that even resulted in cringing chest and bicep pain.  There have also been headaches so severe that the temples
and cheekbones would feel bruised even the day after a headache subsided. 

The pertinence in mentioning this is that the following narration illustrates the ruthless indiffer-
ence of Wuerl and his personnel toward the physically impaired.  This is all the more perti-
nent, being that, in the medical records of the asthmatic retaliation victim is the phrase, "life threatening illness."  The physician who entered it into his records was Ivy League trained.

A Civil Action

Legal action was taken, and the following account was made known to three levels of the United States judiciary.  This included the level of the United States Supreme Court, in a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari and three supplemental briefs.  The Supreme Court docu-
ments were filed in forma pauperis by a clerk of court there in the Year 2002.  The lawsuit
was filed Pro Se in district court, in March 2000.  Now, filing Pro Se means to file without
an attorney, and being admitted to a court in forma pauperis means that you were too poor
to pay the filing fee.

Ever so coincidentally, as soon as the lawsuit was filed, all harassment and retaliatory conduct ceased.  However, diversionary press release tactics resumed, along with their slight-of-hand deceptions.  Needless to say, the cover-up remained on course.

The Supreme Court docket number was 01-10392.

The Citation number is 537 U.S. 843, dated October 7, 2002.

To whom it might one day come to concern, it is requested that you omit the name of the primary petitioner, being that he already suffered more than enough in life.  He is the one
whose name appears first on the docket sheets.

The Pointless Venue of Last Recourse


The civil court system was the venue of last recourse, being that church officials would neith-
er respond in writing nor respond by verbal communication to a single item sent to them af-
ter March 1998.  This included correspondence sent to officials in Washington, DC and in Vatican City.  However, it was promised to the de facto whistle blower, during March of
1998, directly to his face, that someone would get back to him.  None the less, there is a
huge difference between getting back to someone and getting back at someone.

The Cardinal Refused to Help

Even when communications were sent to church authorities by third parties, there would still
be no response, except in one instance.  In that instance, a cardinal responded to a Jersey
woman who had written to him about Wuerl.  The only message she sent, concerning the
cardinal, was that he said that he will not help.  She also stated that he was a  "very promi-
nent cardinal at the Vatican
."

The woman's identity was kept secret for as long as she was alive.  She was Monica Zimmer,
a free lance writer and animation artist who died suddenly in her New Jersey home, on Aug-
ust 2nd, 2008.  She was 45 years of age at the time of her death.  Her motive for reporting
Wuerl, as far back as 1999, was to make sure that he would not be appointed archbishop
of  New York. 

The Papal Nuncio Played "Pass the Buck"


During the first wave of retaliatory conduct (in 1998), a phone call was placed to the Pap-
al Nuncio in Washington.  He said that he would contact the Bishop of Pittsburgh about the matter, assuring that the bishop, alone, would take care things.  Wuerl did nothing but let the course of events stay on course.   Contracting Wuerl was like contacting the fox attacking
the chicken coup.

The Federal Court Case's Added Feature


The case also included the issue of clerics committing cowardice in refusing to speak out and
counter certain institutionalized sins, in fear of loosing tax exempt status, taxpayer funded in-
come, and/or government benefits and the government's favor in general.  This involves those
sins to which Catholics give their cooperation at the workplace and marketplace.

This feature of the lawsuit concerned Wuerl's cowardly refusal to grant either an apostolate
or "a church-approved initiative" dedicated to ending Catholic's cooperation with social sin.
Such a thing used to be called a Catholic Action Guild,  Getting no assistance from one's
bishop, in matters of salvation, under a feeling of compulsion from the government, is a vio-
lation of one's religious rights.

The allegation was that, in Donald Wuerl feared loosing tax-exempt status and/or government
funding, he blocked Catholics of their right to observe their religious duties.  Under the Feder-
al doctrine of "Compulsion," Wuerl blocked civil rights under the color of law.  Page 3 of this website the topic.

LBJ'S Legacy was Partly Involved


The aforementioned feature of the lawsuit concerned, in part, a law that LBJ succeeded in getting passed while he was a senator for the State of Texas.  That law concerns the way in which a religion can loose its tax exempt status.  Incidentally, LBJ stands for Lyndon Baines Johnson, the Vietnam War president who did not run for re-election. 

The aforementioned law was merely a ploy of LBJ, to beat his political opponent, Dudley Dougherty, in the 1954 senatorial election.  Mr. Dougherty was receiving pivotal and open support from certain religious entities until the law that LBJ introduced on the senate floor
was enacted.  LBJ then won the 1954 election. 

This ploy resulted in LBJ becoming Vice President of the United States.  This ploy resulted
in LBJ becoming president in 1963.  This ploy resulted in the deaths of 58,000 Americans in Vietnam.

Proof that it was a Determinant in
Wuerl's Decision Making Process


There is evidence that the fear of loosing tax-exempt status and taxpayer funded government contracts has repeatedly been a factor in Wuerl's decision making process.  Proof is found in
a public statement that he once issued.  Wuerl once stated that he will not deny holy commun-
ion to any influential politician committed to the proliferation of a certain mortal sin, because, according to Wuerl, denying holy communion to such a politician could have "national ramifi-
cations."  Needless to say, this apparently refers to the Catholic Church's tax-exempt status,
as well as its taxpayer funded operations.  Ffor a sum of money in excess of thirty pieces of
silver, Wuerl would permit Christ to be sacrileged, in Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity, near
consecrated altars.

Religions and Taxpayer-funded Income

Religions in America can acquire ample amounts of taxpayer dollars via government contract
social services, government funded medical services, government funded tuition financing, and
even free food from a state's Cooperative Extension Society.  What Wuerl called "Charities"
were nothing more than income-bearing and taxpayer funded programs.   Each participating
Catholic institutions were literally government contractors.  In as much, getting payed for ac-
tivities called charities negates the meaning of charity, especially when it is funded by taxpay-
ers who get no credit for their contributions. 

Concerning this, Donald Wuerl was recently called "a political parasite."  Such a phrase is
synonymous with "taxpayer leech."  This factor becomes amplified in the face of a tremen-dously large national debt.

Wuerl's Cooperation, Concerning
a Specific Crime Against Humanity


The lawsuit also sought to address Wuerl's cooperation in a crime against humanity that which
involves sweatshop profiteering and other types of foreign slave labor profiteering.  This ad-
ditionally involves those types of labor that have been imposed upon foreign child workers in recent years.  This complicity, therefore, envelops Wuerl in an aura of razor
wire. 

As a reminder, when imported slave labor merchandise reaches your home, your place of work, and your person, then you are involved.  You are involved much the same way as is
a person who receives stolen property.  But, in this case, it is more than a matter of stolen property.  It is a matter of stolen lives, wasted away in the burden of going through life with-
out a livable wage.  You're also involved in this crime if you work for an employer engaged
in this practice.  You;re even involved if you invest in a corporation that profits from this practice.

This Cooperation is Attached to a Blatant Contradiction

The great contradiction about Wuerl is that he was heralded the lionhearted protector of children, yet he has been indifferent toward a corporate crime that victimizes children more frequently than does the predatorship of priests who should never have been ordained in
the first place.  Apparently, Wuerl believes that there should be an slave class, to serve him
and other people in his financial echelon.  Incidentally, he is a Pittsburgh diocesan priest by ordination, and Pittsburgh diocesan priest, for as long as I have known, did not take vows
of poverty.

This Cooperation Started to Backfire
on Wuerl, in a Congressional Near-Hit


This is addressed in the following page.  In addition, there is yet another social sin about which Wuerl has been entirely silent.  It, too, is covered on the following page.

EWTN on the Topic of Donald Wuerl


A letter
dated January 28, 1999 that was addressed to Patrick Pontillo, signed by the presi-
dent of the EWTN Global Catholic Network, and appearing on stationery marked with the EWTN logo, stated the following about Donald Wuerl:

"EWTN is reasonably familiar with the information
that you sent
." ...

"I am not in a position to make further statements
regarding the material you sent except to say that
all of it has been duly noted
." ...

"We do pray day and night that all bishops will be
in union with the Holy Father.  We realize that
there are those who, by both work and action,
do not seem to be in union with the Holy Father
."

Malachi Martin on the Topic of Donald Wuerl


Best-selling author, Malachi Martin, called Donald Wuerl a fool who will one day "have to answer to God for all the sins he has allowed."  Father Malachi also said on radio, "He
is not Catholic.  He is just not Catholic
."  In fact, it was during a radio talk show Mala-
chi said, "I'll have you know, [name withheld] that the Diocese of Pittsburgh is one
of the most pathetic dioceses in the United States
."  In light of this, if you ever hear the
Donald Wuerl propaganda machine assassinate the character of the late Malachi Martin,
you will know why.

Concerning the late Malachi Martin's ability to assess situations, he correctly predicted that Albino Luciani would succeed Pope Paul VI to the Chair of Peter.  This was published in a
European newspaper shortly before the 1978 papal election.  Malachi had a circuitry of in-
sider information for years.

Blatant Narcissism and/or Vanity

Wuerl's true height is mentioned in these texts, because of his apparent obsession with hav-
ing to look tall in photographs and on film.  Concerning this, if you have ever read that he is
an aesthetic 5'11," know that he has long since been a non-athletic 5'4" or so throughout the decades.  He has resembled neither a a St. Bruno, nor a Jim Thorpe, nor a Bruce Lee in any
of Wuerl's younger days.  Wuerl has never been an imposing figure, yet the media made him
out to be an intimidating athlete.  This type of propaganda is guaranteed is to backfire, as is
any lie.  For example ...

After a certain diocesan lecteur was personally introduced to Wuerl, he drove to my place of
work (at the time) and mentioned how disappointed he was to have found out that the highly
celebrated Wuerl was nothing more than "scrawny."  He would later state that he had the se-
cond softest handshake he ever encountered.  The softest and shake, incidentally, was that of
a CEO whose company retailed women's clothing and apparel, among other things. The bot-
tom line is that the media served the function of Wuerl's puppet entourage, used to cast an Beowulf image of hime.  This is pertinent to note, being that, if you spread deceptions about
yourself, then you will spread deceptions about other things, including faith and morals.

Economic Results


The individual who saw to it that Wuerl's former secretary would be reported had an R1 cred-
it rating (the highest) at the start of December 1997.  His credit card debt was only $300 at
the time.  Yet, shortly after the diocesan retaliations of 1998, his credit card debt had risen to $8,900. Things became more tragic, and as time progressed, he was forced into bankruptcy court.  Meanwhile, the effeminate narcissist, Donald Wuerl, paraded through town, mas-
quarading as an angel of light with the help of the pathologically bland Pittsburgh Gazette
writer, Ann Rogers.  At the time, she was known as Ann Rogers-Melnick.

The End of Events


This series of events ended in a three degree Celsius night of snowfall, as the individual who saw to the reporting of Wuerl's former secretary was left to sleep in a borrowed pick-up that
had to be returned the following day.  Within two weeks, he was given means of transporta-
tion to the deep south, along with lodging when he would get there. 

Wuerl would then go on to be praised on local television as a "holy, holy, man."  Having al-
ready been painted as a hero by the LA Times and the New York Times, he would soon be-
come the grand marshal of a St. Patrick's Day parade, as if he were an untold hero. 
Former
Pittsburgh Steeler, L.C. Greenwood, would then be used to play the role of dupe, in publicly encouraging Wuerl to be patient for the day when he will be appointed cardinal and made an
automatic candidate for the papacy. 


It is reasonable to assume that L.C. Greenwood was unknowingly recruited for the propa-
ganda task.  It is equally reasonable to assume that he was chosen because he has yet to be elected into the NFL Hall of Fame, despite four Super Bowl rings and tremendous success
as a defensive end.  Therefore, Wuerl was making himself an equal to L.C., in inferring that
he deserves to be a cardinal as much as L.C. deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. 

The irony to Wuerl being chosen the Saint Patrick's Day grand marshal consists in the fact
that the whistle blower who endured the retaliations that Wuerl easily could have stopped
was the one named after the patron saint of Irelan
d.  Needless to say and after the damage
was done, the whistle blower was tossed aside as worthless insignificance, in preference for
a homosexual priest ordained by Wuerl.

The account begins at the following paragraph.

The Destruction of One's Faith in Divine Providence


One seminary (where "priestly formation" takes place) was tagged with the name the "Pink Palace," and another one earned the nickname, "Notre Flame," as in 'flaming homosexual.'
Yet another seminary was nicknamed, the "Theological Closet," as in 'coming out' thereof.
Needless to say, someone in power and influence is to be held accountable for that state of
the modern church in America.  Incidentally, the Theological Closet is located in the Wash-
ington area where Donald Wuerl is presently stationed.

Seminary Visitation, Otherwise Known
as the Papal Seminary Study


Donald Wuerl held a national chairman post in the Office of Priestly Formation during the 1990s. 
During the same 1990s, he was a participant in a program known as the visitations
of American Seminaries.  The visitations were conducted for the purpose of assessing the
state of moral and spiritual health in American seminaries, as well as their progress in being
renewed in the image & likeness of Vatican II.  Donald Wuerl claimed that American semi-
naries were healthy, solid, and proper.  This claim would come to be entirely contradicted
by the accounts published in Michael Rose's, Goodbye, Good Men.  Furthermore, Wuerl's
claim would also be contradicted by a federal appeals case that transpired in the Year 2002.
Someone lied.  Wuerl was also involved in the seminary visitations of the 1980s, while he
was still a monsignor.

The Slight of Hand Deception about Donald Wuerl

The slight-of-hand deception about Wuerl consists in the fact that his public relations person-
nel only stated that there are no active priests in the Pittsburgh diocese who've been accused
of abusing "minors."  Even at that, this claim was not able to have been made until the Year
2002, when Donald Wuerl removed "several priests" all at once.  Therefore, even in 2001,
Wuerl's official spokesman could not make that claim.  Yet, the media made it sound as if
Donald Wuerl were an ironclad disciplinarian from the beginning, despite the cover-ups of
Wolk, Zula, Pucci, Huff, and Hoehl, as well as the retaliations involving his former personal
secretary and the recently confirmed allegations against Frs. Wellinger and Sotak. 

And What about those Adults with the Minds of
Adolescents, as well as Adults who are Impaired?


There are adults in social predicaments, academic situations, business arrangements, and med-
ical states where they can not easily defend themselves.  This includes the disabled.   In addi-
tion, there are adults who have the minds of children.  Thus, while Wuerl was being hailed as
an accomplished protector, this claim of protectorship:

[1] did not include persons over the age of 18 who 
      have the minds of 8, 10, or 12 year olds.

[2] did not include traumatized adults in impaired states.

[3] did not include medically vulnerable adults who can
      not easily endure any retaliation that ends in either
      a physical pursuit or a consuming economic loss.

[4] did not include economically blackmailed adults who
      stand to loose job posts, promotions, seminary en-
      rollment, economic opportunities, or even shelter.

[5] did not include adults who get their reputations
      attacked as a diversionary tactic, shortly after
      they repel the advances of a predatory priest.

[6] did not include adults intoxicated by alcohol, such as an
     "under-aged" adult college football player, still in his teen-
       age years, who was given alcohol by a priest on diocesan
       parish property, only to fall to his death in that same parish
       church. (Please take note of the contradiction in the
       phrase, "under-aged adult, still in his teenage years
.")

A Class of  Vulnerable People Left Out by the Bishops,
during the Highly Publicized Dallas Conference


For the record, there was a floor motion at the highly publicized bishop's conference that
sought to include as protected persons those adults who have the minds of 12 year olds. 
It was voted down.

Wuerl Has Proven that He Will Let Remain Covered Up
Whatever He Can Get Away with Covering Up


In the cases of (1) Torquato, (2) Wolk, (3) Zula, (4) Pucci, (5) Hoehl, (6) Huff, and even
(7) Father Henry Krawczyk
, Wuerl has shown that he will let happen whatever he can get away with letting happen, while covering up whatever he can get away with covering.  If he causes you harm in the process, and neither attorney, nor reporter, nor law enforcement of-
ficer casts a compelling shadow over him, don't expect him to reach out to you and undo the
damage done.  Pursuant to his track record, Wuerl will let you be left for dead.
