Above: The priest between Cipolla & John Paul II is/was author, Fr. John Hardon. He was a vehement supporter of and a defender of Anthony Cipolla. So, if you insist on trashing the Anthony Cipolla who was never tried or convicted of any court of law, of any molestation charge, then you are going to have to trash and defame Father John Hardon, too. This is where the asininity of Randy Engel enters: Engel claims that Cipolla had to have been a schizophrenic or a severe psychotic. Well, in the process of her defamation, she de facto claimed that catechism author Fr. John Hardon was an equal low-life, also approaching psychosis or schizophrenia. This is due to his association with ... and trust in ... Anthony Cipolla. In sequence, you must then condemn all of the Catholic Church teaching stated in John Hardon's book as psychotic and schizophrenic trash. Then, you must state that Catholicism, per se, is schizophrenic and psychotic trash. That is to say, Anthony Cipolla was in close contact with the higher echelon of society, and none of the people in that echelon ever told me that Cipolla acted like a schizophrenic or a psychotic. In fact, concerning Anthony Cipolla's character, I have heard, spoken to my face, "He was such a wonderful man." Nobody ever "personally" wrote to me or vocally said to me that Diane Thompson was such a wonderful woman. And a son stating in an open letter, "my sainted mom," does NOT count, because he didn't state any good works that would signify a saint. Authors did not go out of their way to go to Rome with Diane Thompson. They did, with Anthony Cipolla. No Italian count ever represented her in any kind of court of any kind of law anywhere. A count helped Cipolla. And of course, no Chicago journalist told me that Diane Thompson was probably correct. Rather, a Chicago journalist said about Cipolla, "He's probably innocent." |
The point to this post is that something was brought to my attention, and it goes like this:
Four, five, and six years after Anthony Cipolla's death, the woman formerly known as Diane Thompson kept defaming him, in posting further defamation against Cipolla. In one of her posts of four or five years ago, she claimed that people in OHIO had started to come forth, to accuse Anthony Cipolla of molesting them.
Need less to say, this is not true. Proof that this is not true is that, it has been at least four years since Diane Thompson's defamatory declaration, and no accusation of any kind appear in any court docket of any kind against Cipolla.
Remember, while in Ohio, Anthony Cipolla was in pain, with neuropathy, and he had undergone multiple heart surgeries. He was not in any condition to molest anyone. Plus, he was NOT attached to any parish youth group.
Perhaps that aging defamatory woman ... if she's still alive ... will claim that she misread an article which she thought mentioned Cipolla and then she relayed the news mistakenly. Okay, fine. Whatever. None the less, in order to clear the record in the Court of Public Opinion:
The bottom line is that only two households accused Cipolla of molestation, and both households didn't accuse Cipolla until shortly after each one individually asked for financial assistance from the Diocese of Pittsburgh affiliates, followed by both of them receiving Zero dollars and Zero cents from the Diocese of Pittsburgh affiliates.
1978
In 1978, was a 32 year old Diane Thompson who called the police on July 25th, in order to accuse Cipolla of molesting a son of hers, even though she saw no molestation take place and even though the O/I Report showed that there was no visible signs of molestation.
None the less, July 25, 1978 was ever-so-coincidentally a time close to a rent payment due date. And I emphasize "ever-so-coincidentally," as well as allegedly.
None the less, on July 25th, she only claimed that Tucker was molested. Allegations from Frank Labiaux ... either a step son or a DNA-related son of hers ... came a few days later.
After this, ten years passed with no one accusing Cipolla of any sexual molestation. In fact, five years prior was a time when no one accused Cipolla of molestation, either. So, from May 1972 to July 1978, no accusations.
Then, from August 1978 to 1987 or 1988, no accusations. This is the case after a hefty dose of grand jury inquisitioning transpired in 2018.
Now think: The 2018 Pennsylvania Grand Jury Inquest made it available for anyone who was molested by Anthony Cipolla to come forth, and no one did other than the two previously mentioned households which comprised no more than three males.
Plus, secret archive records on Cipolla could have been produced which enumerated a number of accusations. But, no list of accusers ever existed, making Randy Engel look like even more of a jackass, in her claim that Cipolla's parish assignment is the record of a serial molester with many sex abuse victims.
So, where are the records of these hushed children, and in which secret archive were they found? Or is it that Randy Engel was nothing more than a non-factual, gossipy hag who became a danger to society every time she sat in front of a keyboard?
1987
Then came Tim Bendig in 1987 and then in 1988. He had literally been expelled from the Pittsburgh diocese's seminary after only one semester of attendance. He asked the Diocese of Pittsburgh for charity dollars and received zero.
Then, during a Padre Pio Prayer Group reception, Anthony Cipolla got everyone's attention and told the people there to stop sending Tim Bendig money ... to the seminary ... being that he didn't live there anymore.
Tim Bendig then asked a close follower of Cipolla via telephone, if "Father Cipolla" told the prayer group people to stop sending him money. The nice lady on the other end of the phone conversation said, "Yes, he did." I know her to be a nice lady, because I personally met her and even spoke with her on the phone.
Tim instantly responded by saying, "He shouldn't have done that." Shortly thereafter came Bendig's accusation against Cipolla and nine other priests, as well as approximately a dozen seminarians. Wuerl dismissed the accusations as not credible and closed the books on Bendig.
As a reminder, Wuerl was in Seattle, as an auxiliary bishop, until February 1988. He started there in May of 1987. Bendig's accusations were still lingering after he was expelled from the Pittsburgh seminary. Then, after Wuerl settled-in, in 1988, the proverbial book was closed on Bendig.
Next came the Wolk, Zula, and Pucci arrests in October 1988. Bendig saw that this was a great time to publicize his accusations, and maybe score on some lawsuit money. Then, on the 25th anniversary of the JFK assassination, a newspaper reported on Bendig's accusations against Cipolla.
More importantly, no one in Ohio ... and no one who used to live in Ohio ... ever accused Cipolla of molestation. In fact, after 1988, no one from anywhere accused Cipolla of any kind of sexual abuse. Between 1978 and 1988, no one accused Cipolla, either.
There were neither past molestation accusations nor present ones. Diane Thompson is merely a malicious liar, thinking that you are stupid enough to believe whatever she writes and then posts.
I've a question about the Bendig Lawsuit Deposition of Frank Labiaux, if it does exist:
Now, concerning Frank Labiaux and an alleged deposition taken a couple weeks after Attorney Douglas Yauger received communications from Diane Thompson's clan, does anyone out there have a copy of an alleged cross-examination of Frank Labiaux? ... if such a thing actually exists?
You are more than welcomed to act like a lady or a gentleman and send me a text or an email or even give me a phone call. In fact, you can find my cell phone number in each of the three posts about the renovation of the St. Wenceslaus Church structure, located around the early August 2026 posts.
I need to see that cross-examination or I need to see someone out there versed in trial law give a cross-examination to Frank Labiaux. Contrary to all of those sites which arrogantly speak of Cipolla without ever using the lawsuit prevention word of ALLEGEDLY, and who are certain that he was as guilty as sin, I want to know the actual truth.
I'm an Irish-Italian American construction worker who has no investment in any Padre Pio Prayer Group enterprise ... or in any Cipolla-related project ... or in any project of any person once involved with Cipolla.
I did NOT get paid as much as a dollar to write what I did on any subject, including the Cipolla Subject. And the white Mercedes I drive, as well as the tan Ford 250 I also drive, came solely from construction profits. Period. So, I have no conflict of interest in the Cipolla Case.
It's simply that Wuerl is so diabolical & deceitful that he used the Cipolla Case as a smoke screen, so as to hide all of his undisputed molester priests from public sight and/or from police sight.
Plus, it was the Cipolla Case which rocketed Wuerl into what turned out to be a very UNDESERVED stardom. So, I want the truth on Donald Wuerl's Smoke Screen Case.
Remember, it was during this long time span of damning Cipolla, when the retaliatory Fr James Torquato was being regarded as a sincere servant of God. Yet, Torquato was a living Hell, along with the priests, the bishops, the Pittsburgh Police officers, and the Post Gazette writer who aided in the James Torquato Retaliations & Cover-up.
The Apostolate Request Totally Ignored
I was the one who wanted to be granted the Apostolate dedicated to countering the 1990s and Turn of the Millennium Sweatshop, Slave Labor business practices.
After all, Pittsburgh is the quintessential working man's town, with a history-changing labor history. So, Pittsburgh was the ideal place to start an apostolate dedicated to rescuing the severely underpaid workers whose products were being used regularly in America.
But of course, Donald Wuerl completely ignored me, until I became the advocate of the Whistle Blower of one of Wuerl's priests. That priest used to be Wuerl's personal secretary.
None the less, in ignoring my apostolate request, Wuerl ignored the suffering of slave-waged workers throughout the world who were making Americans their products. In as much, many a shirt had a tag saying, "Made in China." It should have said, "Made by Chinese Sweatshop Slaves." Meanwhile, Wuerl remained silent for years.
