I am an Italian "avvocato rotale." I usually work in the
Roman Curia of the Catholic Church where certain canonical crimes arrive
for consideration from all over the world. For this reason, I often
look at American newspapers online, sometimes printing out their pages
for my folders.
I was doing that the other day, searching for news about a priest who entrusted his case to me, when I found in The Providence Journal an article about a different priest, unknown to me ("Priest prohibited from serving," news, July 1). His story made me want to share some thoughts, based on my professional experience.
