The 1978 Cipolla Case, was a narration of malicious defamation, by media entities

In the event you're keeping score on the case which Donald Wuerl used as a diversionary tactic ... done in order to misdirect attention away from Wuerl's multiple & undisputed abusive priests ... the magistrate in charge of the Cipolla Case's Aug 28, 1978 Probable Cause Hearing was Stephen Laffey.  He was a local magistrate.  

 

In law, a magistrate is basically "a screener," to see if a case should continue onward or be dismissed.  A local magistrate can also serve as a motions judge, if need be.  In fact, a magistrate is a preliminary judge with a judge's power.  

 

Identifying the True Detectives

 

The Confusion Factor went beyond Randy Engel giving the entirely wrong names in her defamatory 2016 Cipolla article.  It came from the next-to-last line on the July 25th, 1978 Offense/Incident Report.  It stated whom was notified of Diane Thompson's complaint.  One of the two names in the form was Broz.

 

On the Northside of Pittsburgh, the name Broz was associated with the desk sergeant of Unit 9 ... of the police station somewhat near the Andy Warhol Museum.  Warren Broz was the desk sergeant there, for years ... about twenty of them.  

 

Therefore, when an O/I Report mentions Broz, it's assumed that a police officer gave the report to Desk Sergeant Broz  It was then discovered that Warren Broz actually was a detective before becoming a desk sergeant.  In fact, his partner was a Leo Marchetti.  

 

On that form it looked as if the July 25th O/I report was submitted to the desk sergeant and an assistant DA.  The reality is that Detectives Broz & Marchetti were notified of the accusations in the July 25th O/I Report.  

 August 28th, 1978 is a date held in confusion as to what really did happen on that day, before Judge Stephen Laffey

 

That August 28th hearing was cancelled via Diane Thompson, herself, during a time when "charges" were NOT YET FILED, meaning that Diane Thompson IS A LIAR for claiming that her signature, written under duress according to her ... "dropped criminal charges" against Cipolla.  

 

As a reminder for the seventh or eighth time, in every jurisdiction in the United States and in its 50 sovereign states, once criminal charges are filed against anyone, the only two persons who can "drop the charges" in every case are 1] either the prosecutor 2] and/or the judge, including a magistrate involved in the case.  

 

Thus, the whole newspaper narrative of the Drop-the-Charges Nightmare scenario of Diane Thompson, when she was unable-to-see-the-paper-she-was-signing-because-of-tears-in-the-eyes, it was theatrical bull crap.  When you have tears in your eyes and need to write something, what do you instinctively do?  ANS: You wipe them away with one hand and maybe even a Kleenex.  Then you sign your name.

 

Moreover, Hollywood repeatedly had movies which claimed that only the victim can file charges ... for dramatic effect and story-line flexibility only.  Well, a murdered man is incapable of filing criminal charges against his murderer.  Yet, numerous murder charges have been filed throughout American history.  Therefore, persons other than the victim have repeatedly filed criminal charges in the USA.

 

Well, in 1978, child molestation charges in the State of Pennsylvania had a TWO YEAR STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS, and the US Constitution's Double Jeopardy Law was not in effect.  It wasn't in effect, because there was no jury verdict, or judge's directed verdict, or a bench trial judge's "finding."  

Diane Thompson most definitely could have pursued the case.  She had time, all the way until July 24, 1980.  If she wanted two counts of charges filed, then she had until June 30th, 1980, to have had an uncontested "timely" filing.  Thus, she had 22 months or approximately 660 days to get Cipolla in handcuffs, IF he actually did molest Tucker and/or Frank.

Moreever, she could have brought in the feds.  This is because, if Cipolla really did molest Frank, then the Michigan State Police or the Feds needed to indict him ... at least for what he was accused of doing in Michigan.  None the less, many youths went to Michigan with Cipolla, and none of those ever accused Cipolla of any wrong-doing. 

Even at that, there was no case in the first place, being that CIPOLLA WAS NOT ARRESTED in 1978 or ever.  He was NOT indicted.  The case literally didn't even begin.  Things were only at the investigation phase.  

And concerning Broz wanting Cipolla indicted, he jumped the gun and failed to gather any evidence that would fulfill the strict burden of proof in a criminal trial which are to be "beyond a reasonable doubt."  

The big lie about this whole August 28, 1978

 

This has been held back from the public for years.  Not revealing it enabled numerous opinionated know-it-all types to make fools out of themselves, thereby showing them to be total frauds & fakes who don't know the first thing about the law.

 

Concerning that August 28, 1978 Probable Cause Hearing, Randy Engel made it sound as if Diane  Thompson absolutely had to be there, in order for the case to proceed.   Newsflash:  Diane Thompson was not an officer of the court.  Outside of being a witness to be questioned at the hearing, no private citizen is required to be at a Probable Cause Hearing.  

 

In 1978, IF and only if there were evidence against Cipolla already in existence, Diane Thompson had no need to attend the hearing.  Plus, if she had no evidence, then her attendance would have been a waste of time.

It was one big lie to have claimed that she was needed, in order to proceed with the prosecution of Cipolla.  That which was needed was the D.A. office's consent.  The person whose presence was needed was only the prosecutor.  If there were any damning evidence against Cipolla at all, then Cipolla would have been indicted, even with Diane Thompson absent.  

 

Now, there was that which the 12 year Frank Labiaux said to the sole detective assigned to the case.  In as much, if Frank Labiaux were going to be used as a witness, then the defense would have had the opportunity to cross-examine him and impeach his testimony.

Of course, the media claimed that the local government in 1978 shut down all possibility of prosecuting a priest claimed to have had DNA evidence against him.  

Of course, there was NO DNA EVIDENCE in the 1978 case.  Moreover, in 1978 it took over 7 weeks for any DNA test results to be produced.  In 1978, you did not get DNA results in three days, or even within 3 weeks.  

The DNA evidence claim of the 1978 case was yet another Diane Thompson lie.  After all, August 28th minus July 25th equals 34 days.  Even 49 days was too early for there to have been any DNA evidence, for the 1978 Probable Cause Hearing.

There was no $45 fee.  Diane Thompson lied ... as usual 

Furthermore, that was as blatant a lie as the time when Diane Thompson told Randy Engel that she had to laboriously raise, at great sacrifice, a $45 fee, for Frank Labiaux to go to the annual convention in Michigan, at the grounds of the Pontifical Institute for Foreign Missions.  Entrance was FREE.   

Firstly, it was vocations weekend and it was 100% for free, because it was designed to inspire young lads into seeking a priesthood vocation.  Therefore, Cipolla didn't go there to molest Tucker or Frank.  He went there to get the religious order to recruit young lads into a pre-seminary curriculum.  It was a typical recruiting weekend, and the cost of it was already in the religious order's budget.

Once again, in case I wasn't understood ... due to poor writing ...  Diane Thompson NEVER had to pay a $45 entrance free for any relative to go to the Michigan seminary recruit weekend.  She lied yet another time.  

You need to realize that Diane Thompson has proven herself to have been nothing but a wall-to-wall liar.  After all, she said that I didn't exist and that my name was a made-up name used by Anthony Cipolla.  She claimed that Cipolla was operating this site, while operating some kind of a child molestation ring.  

AND AND AND, the Number 1 Piece of Evidence which proves that Diane Thompson knew that she was lying all along, consisted in the fact that she never called the police on the guy operating this website, namely yours truly who is still operating it, ten years after Cipolla's violent death.  

If Diane Thompson really believed that this site was being run by a child molestation ring operator, she would have called someone in law enforcement to investigate.  This includes Pittsburgh Police, Pennsylvania State Police, the FBI, etc.  Being that she did NOT do so, it proves that she knew that she was lying to you ... and the vast majority of my viewers at the time believed Diane Thompson, showing how incredibly stupid were Americans in the 2010s.

BELOW:  Now remember, if you have money and you commit defamation against me in any way similar to the way that Diane Thompson did ... in costing me 90% of my viewers ... then I will sue you for millions and then go out of my way to have you criminally prosecuted ... in some novel construction prosecution ... unless you are in State where defamation is already a crime.  In one way or another I WILL put you out of business. 

Then again, Americans proved how stupid that were in the 2000s, in believing that small Iraq ... with a population no bigger than Hungary ... had amassed enough firepower to go Intercontinentally Ballistic.  Even though there were inspectors in Iraq assuring us the no Weapons of Mass Destruction were found, Americans believed the con game played by a Dick Cheney 

But of course, it has been ten years since Cipolla's death, and this site is still in operation.  Plus, out of MY DEBIT CARD came the yearly payment for me to use the www.donaldwuerl.com domain name & web address.  This proves 100% that Cipolla never ran this site and that Diane Thompson was lying all along.  

This also proved that Americans and even Mexicans were really really really stupid for believing Diane Thompson, back in 2015.  After all, shortly after she posted her defamatory accusation, I lost 90% of my weekly views.  I lost 90% of my viewers on all of my sites ... not just the Wuerl-of-Hurt site.

If you were one of those people who were conned by Thompson ... 

Now, if you were one of those people who instantly believed Diane Thompson and stopped viewing my sites, please write to me and tell why you were so gullible so as to have believed her.   

That 1978 Investigation ran at a lynch mob speed 

The investigation should have continued beyond August 1978, just to make sure that a molester didn't go free ... and just to make sure that the accusing mother wasn't a con artist who literally committed the crime of having filed a false police report.  

However, the sole detective of the case jumped the gun, in his fatal error of NOT corroborating a thing said by then-twelve-year old Frank Labiaux, in an interview with him.  

The detective's fatal error was in him assuming that every 12 year old male always tells the truth to the police.  Of course, junior high school teachers knew that 12 year old males certainly do lie to teachers.  So, why would they not lie to the police?  

 Moreover, a few 1980 cases showed us that there are mothers out there who most certainly did tell their children to lie to the police.

If Cipolla were actually guilty of any wrong-doing, a few more months of police investigation could have resulted in the discovery of actual evidence or corroborating points of circumstantial evidence ... or a newly emerging witness ... which could have warranted an indictment & arrest.  

If the Allegheny County DA's office were as corrupt as Diane Thompson claimed, then Diane Thompson could have brought-in the State Boys from Harrisburg for investigation purposes ... if and only if she were telling the truth and not playing a con game designed to quickly get apartment rent money, back in 1978.

Back to Original Motivation 

Concerning Wuerl as bishop, I simply wanted to be granted a church-approved Catholic action guild now called "an apostolate."  It would have been based on opposing ... and "giving awareness to" ... modern-day slave labor profiting which included foreign sweatshop labor profiting.  After all, it was causing a massive trade balance deficit for the United States, while literally costing about 5 million jobs.  

 

Even though the Defraudment of Laborers of their Wages is one of the Four Sins which Cry to Heaven for Vengeance, Wuerl did NOT care to come to the rescue of the down-trodden and unprotected.  He merely wanted to live his Marie Antoinette Lifestyle.  

 

In the midst of learning how heartless Wuerl was, concerning workers who provided a lot of merchandise to the USA as enslaved workers, I then learned of Torquato and found it to have been a moral obligation to have Wuerl learn of his sexual antics.  Torquato did not care about the plight of the slave-labor sweatshop workers.  He only cared about putting his hands where they should have not been.

 

Then came the retaliations, as well as intelligence-insulting propaganda ... and games played by police who should have been tossed out of their police departments.  

 

 

Now remember, I was NOT a follower of Anthony Cipolla.  After all, he didn't care about ending the nationwide scandal of foreign sweatshop labor profiteering.  So, he & I were in two drastically different worlds.  

 

Now, I acknowledge the miraculous power of Padre Pio, but life is a matter of Ora & Labora.  Cipolla only cared about the Ora part, in sacramental liturgy, without wanting to do the labora part of championing any cause dedicated to ending nationwide injustice.

 

It's just that a box of Cipolla documents was literally placed in front of me to take with me and review.  Of course, I was chosen to do the reviewing, because I was the one caught in the middle of the Torquato Retaliations that Wuerl could have stopped instantly, but let continue until I was destroyed.  Thus, I personally knew how vicious & unjust Wuerl was.  

 

Yet, I originally assumed that Anthony Cipolla was as guilty as sin ... because Ann Rodgers Melnick and the Post Gazette said he was.  That box of docs was followed by my realizing that everything "Ann Rodger-Melnick" and similar de fact propagandists wrote about the Cipolla Case was completely non-factual.  

 

The newspaper reports were so non-factual that the first response which came to mind, after viewing the doc box was:  "Is this a trick question?"  

 

The entire newspaper reports were askew from the documentation.  Then came witnesses who knew Tim Bendig and Cipolla ... and who went to at least one of the yearly Michigan vocation weekend events, where no one had to pay any $45 entrance fee, as Diane Thompson FALSELY claimed.  

 

It then inspired the second reflex action which consisted in any document reviewer thinking to himself, in the privacy of his own thoughts:  "You've got to be kidding.  This Anthony Cipolla horror story is a farce."  In as much, if you're gonna condemn someone and string him out, to die, then you better condemn him for the correct reason.

 

Now, I spoke with Cipolla over the phone many a time.  I originally did so, trying to get a confession out of him.  Then, after having done the necessary fact-checking, I found that the Cipolla horror story was one sick joke.
