To stay away from Father Dale (Fushek) and his hot tub parties. It wasn’t the message that creeped me out, it was the cold and guilty tone. The nuns and staff knew what was going on, but instead of police, they were just trying to move him somewhere else. Today he walks free in Scottsdale, AZ and is seen living the high life at various fancy restaurants. If we give him hell, we’re the ones that get kicked out.
My diocese had one of those too. He ran the Newman/student center at the university. The bishop knew about him and "applied restrictions" to him, but it wasn't until he died that they publicly investigated him.
It was about ten years after he died that the investigation report came out. They concluded "there was a homosexual culture" at the Newman Center to blame.
Damn, we've got his name, his crime, and current location, and reporting him to the law will do nothing??
I looked him up. They did catch him but they only fined him for $250
