Duncan ducks questions as corruption allegations swirl around residential school compensation payouts
Following up on a year-long investigation by APTN Investigates, APTN National News has also learned that concerns have now spread to British Columbia and Ontario, threatening to derail the $5 billion residential school settlement, the largest settlement in Canadian history. David Blott violated trust, breached settlement agreement, 06. Jun, 2012 VANCOUVER – A Vancouver judge has kicked a Calgary lawyer out of the Independent Assessment Process (IAP) based on the allegations made by investigators. Justice Brenda Brown released her 59-page written decision late this afternoon: David Blott and Tom Denomme of Honour Walk are barred from any further participation in the IAP. The IAP is a compensation process for serious physical and/or sexual abuse suffered by former residential school students as children. The judge accepted the findings of investigators from Crawford Class Action Services as completely credible. The Crawford report on its four-month, $3-million investigation was 7,496 pages long, consisting of an executive summary and more than 7,400 pages of exhibits. aptn.ca/pages/news/2012/06/06/judge-punishes-lawyer-for-loan-scheme-targeting-residential-school-survivors/

Nun's book on sexuality lambasted by Vatican VATICAN CITY — The Associated Press Last updated Monday, Jun. 04 2012, 11:09 PM EDT The Vatican on Monday sharply criticized a book on sexuality written by a prominent American nun, saying it contradicted church teaching on issues such as masturbation, homosexuality and marriage and that its author had a “defective understanding” of Catholic theology. The Vatican's orthodoxy office said the book, Just Love: A Framework for Christian Sexual Ethics by Sister Margaret Farley, an emeritus professor of Christian ethics at Yale Divinity School, posed “grave harm” to the faithful. www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/nuns-book-on-sexuality-lambasted-by-vatican/article4231133/

Church and state clash over sex and condoms in the Philippines Thursday 19 May 2011 A 13-year battle between church and state in the Philippines, one of the world's most devoutly Catholic nations, has come to a head over government plans to provide free condoms and sex education. Catholic bishops have threatened to excommunicate President Benigno Aquino over a reproductive health bill introduced into the Congress yesterday. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/australasia/church-and-state-clash-over-sex-and-condoms-in-the-philippines-2286084.html___________________________ Nuns Tour To Protest Ryan Budget June 21, 2012 5:22 PM A group of politically active Catholic nuns have decided to make their case on the road. The “Nuns on the Bus” tour is meant to clearly communicate to the public that nuns, people of the front lines of dealing with the most impoverished among us, oppose the Republican budget plan because they say it does not represent their Catholic values. philadelphia.cbslocal.com/2012/06/21/nuns-tour-to-protest-ryan-budget/

Saturday, June 23, 2012 Father Brennan Walks Out "In The Sunshine;" Msgr. Lynn Taken Into Custody
Moments after he had been convicted of endangering the welfare of a child, Msgr. William J. Lynn bowed his head at the defense table. The issue now was whether his bail would be revoked, and the speaker was Lynn's longtime antagonist, Assistant District Attorney Patrick Blessington.
www.priestabusetrial.com/2012/06/father-brennan-walks-out-in-sunshine.htmlFather Robert L. BrennanFather Robert L. Brennan, ordained in 1964, was made a pastor by Archbishop Bevilacqua in 1988. Since that time, the Archdiocese has learned of inappropriate or suspicious behavior by Fr. Brennan with more than 20 boys from four different parishes. He was psychologically evaluated or “treated” four times. Depending on the level of scandal threatened by various incidents, Cardinal Bevilacqua either transferred Fr. Brennan to another parish with unsuspecting families or ignored the reports and left the priest in the parish with his current victims. The Cardinal’s managers advised Fr. Brennan to “keep a low profile,” but never restricted or supervised his access to the youth of his various parishes... The Archdiocese’s response to these reports, and far more explicit ones, was to measure whether the reports would lead to scandal, not to take action against Fr. Brennan. www.bishop-accountability.org/reports/2005_09_21_Philly_GrandJury/Philly_05_28_Brennan.pdf

On 20 May 2011 Herman Spronck, the head of the Dutch arm of the Salesian Catholic order, confirmed to RTL Nieuws that a priest under him had been on the board of MARTIJN until the Van der Berg raids. He added "Of course we reject this and distance ourselves from this personal initiative". RTL obtained interviews both with Spronck and the priest (73-year-old "Father Van B.") in which the two defended adult-child sex as not always damaging.[13] The priest concerned has prior convictions for child sex abuse.[14] ____________________ Dutch priest belonged to pedophile club May 20, 2011 AMSTERDAM—The head of a Catholic religious order in the Netherlands has confirmed one of his subordinate priests served on the board of an organization that promotes pedophilia. Herman Spronck, head of the Dutch arm of the Salesian order, said in a statement Friday the priest served on the board of the "Martijn" organization, which is widely reviled but not illegal. more: www.boston.com/news/world/europe/articles/2011/05/20/dutch_priest_belonged_to_pedophile_club/____________________________ The big picture But this may be too narrow a view. The bigger picture is this: Victor Marijnen was just one member of a wider elite of Catholic notables who wielded vast power in the 1950s. They were captains of industry, chairmen of commissions, judges, high-ranking civil servants and politicians. And it was through this old boys network that abuse at Harreveld and other Roman Catholic institutions was covered up. In short, the Harreveld castration story reveals collusion between institutions, bishops, politicians, the police and the justice system that enabled sexual abuse in the church to continue unpunished for decades on end. www.rnw.nl/english/article/time-truth-about-catholic-sex-abuse-netherlandsWiki: North American Man/Boy Love Association Wiki: Vereniging Martijn ______________________________ Martijn, Dutch Pedophile Association, Outlawed - 06/27/12 08:39 AM ET Its chairman, Marthijn Uittenbogaard, called the decision "an attack on the freedom of expression." "We are not happy and we are considering whether to appeal," he told The Associated Press in a telephone interview. www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/27/martijn-dutch-pedophile-association_n_1630171.html

Attorney in Miramonte sex abuse case calls for federal investigation into LAUSD Posted: 07/13/2012 04:35:24 PM PDT Updated: 07/13/2012 04:36:47 PM PDT Attorney in Miramonte sex abuse case calls for federal investigation into LAUSD A lawyer for 11 alleged victims of sexual abuse at Miramonte Elementary called Friday for an independent federal investigation into Los Angeles Unified's handling of allegations. During a morning news conference outside his Pasadena office, attorney Brian Claypool said he'd received a letter from the FBI, seeking additional information about the Miramonte scandal. The letter was in response to one that Claypool sent to President Barack Obama in March, as details emerged about sex acts that teacher Mark Berndt allegedly committed against students at the Los Angeles campus. "In the last six months, there hasn't been a single independent investigation into LAUSD," said Claypool, adding that state Attorney General Kamala Harris had refused his requests to open an inquiry. He released a letter from Jayne L. Challman, chief of the FBI's Violent Criminal Threat section in Washington, D.C., saying that the agency's Crimes Against Children Unit had reviewed his letter and determined that "this information may warrant additional investigation." The letter asks that anyone with information call the FBI's Los Angeles Field Office at 310-477-6565. www.contracostatimes.com/california/ci_21072091/attorney-miramonte-sex-abuse-case-calls-federal-investigationSchool teacher 'bound and gagged two dozen children, put roaches on their faces, fed them semen and took their photos' - Students exposed to semen advised to get STD tests UPDATED: 15:04 GMT, 1 February 2012 www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2094444/Mark-Berndt-School-teacher-roaches-childrens-faces-fed-semen-took-photos.html

Published on 24 Aug 2012 by RussiaToday The Catholic Church is pressing charges against three German copycats of the Russian punk band Pussy Riot, after they disrupted a service in Cologne Cathedral. The trio of activists could now face a prison sentence that's longer than the one given to their Moscow counterparts. Last week's verdict on Pussy Riot sparked a wave of condemnation abroad, including Germany. RT's Peter Oliver takes up the story. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ipb1tiBhYRs

Former church volunteer receives 15 years in child sexual assaults Thursday, September 20, 2012 - 9/21/12 What was supposed to be an enriching church youth group experience turned into the “nightmare of their lives” for at least two boys who were sexually assaulted by the group’s leader, according to state District Judge Michael Vigil. Anthony Martinez, 36, pleaded guilty to two counts of criminal sexual penetration of a minor Thursday in accordance with a plea agreement. Vigil, believing that there might be more victims who have not come forward, handed down the maximum sentence of 15 years. www.santafenewmexican.com/Local%20News/092112Sentencing
