+1Look for needy Boys!
May 27th
Investigators examining tapped cell phone conversations between a Moroccan drug dealer and an Italian priest, 51-year-old Father Riccardo Seppia (shown at left, in the red robe here) found evidence of arranged sexual encounters with young boys, some of whom were paid for sex with cocaine. "I do not want 16-year-old boys but younger," Seppia, who is HIV-positive, is accused of having said on the tapes. "Fourteen-year-olds are O.K. Look for needy boys who have family issues." Ironically Seppia is a priest in the archdiocese of one of the top advisers working with Pope Benedict XVI "on reforms to respond to prior scandals of paedophile priests." He is said to have boasted in the recorded cell phone conversations that local shopping malls were the best place to pick up boys for sex. [via BoingBoing]
Meanwhile the Catholic church blames the sexual liberation in the 1960s for their notorious problems with priests abusing little boys (they didn’t rape anyone before the 60s, you know?) and urges bishops to report child abuse in the church… if they feel like it.
