Not Only Is Pope Francis A Communist, He is A Protector Of Pedopholes And A Liar...

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis received a victim's letter in 2015 that graphically detailed how a priest sexually abused him and how other Chilean clergy ignored it, contradicting the pope's recent insistence that no victims had come forward to denounce the cover-up, the letter's author and members of Francis' own sex- abuse commission have told The Associated Press.

The fact that Francis received the eight-page letter, obtained by the AP, challenges his insistence that he has "zero tolerance" for sex abuse and cover-ups. It also calls into question his stated empathy with abuse survivors, compounding the most serious crisis of his five-year papacy.

The scandal exploded last month when Francis' trip to South America was marred by protests over his vigorous defense of Bishop Juan Barros, who is accused by victims of witnessing and ignoring the abuse by the Rev. Fernando Karadima. During the trip, Francis callously dismissed accusations against Barros as "slander," seemingly unaware that victims had placed Barros at the scene of Karadima's crimes.On the plane home, confronted by an AP reporter, the pope said: "You, in all good will, tell me that there are victims, but I haven't seen any, because they haven't come forward."

But members of the pope's Commission for the Protection of Minors say that in April 2015, they sent a delegation to Rome specifically to hand-deliver a letter to the pope about Barros. The letter from Juan Carlos Cruz detailed the abuse, kissing and fondling he says he suffered at Karadima's hands, which he said Barros and others saw but did nothing to stop.

Four members of the commission met with Francis' top abuse adviser, Cardinal Sean O'Malley, explained their concerns about Francis' recent appointment of Barros as a bishop in southern Chile, and gave him the letter to deliver to Francis. "When we gave him (O'Malley) the letter for the pope, he assured us he would give it to the pope and speak of the concerns," then-commission member Marie Collins told the AP. "And at a later date, he assured us that that had been done."

Cruz, who now lives and works in Philadelphia, heard the same later that year.

"Cardinal O'Malley called me after the pope's visit here in Philadelphia and he told me, among other things, that he had given the letter to the pope — in his hands," he said in an interview at his home Sunday.

Indianapolis Colts Player Killed by Twice-Deported Illegal Alien

Activists want officials to make the Indiana capital a sanctuary city, as linebacker Edwin Jackson's death brings Hoosier reaction

Indianapolis Colts linebacker Edwin Jackson was struck and killed Sunday morning as he was helping an Uber driver along Interstate 70 by a vehicle driven by a twice-deported illegal alien.

Jackson, 26, had stopped to help Jeffrey Monroe, 54, who had pulled over because of illness.

Jackson and Monroe, of Avon, Indiana, were standing near a stopped vehicle when Manuel Orrego-Savala’s pickup truck drove onto the emergency shoulder and struck and killed them both, according to the Indianapolis Star.

Orrego-Savala was arrested and taken to Marion County Jail, where he gave police a false name.

Police and media soon discovered Orrego-Savala was a Guatemalan national who had been deported before. He is being held in a local jail, and a hold has been placed on him so he can be picked up by federal agents.

“Orrego-Savala is in the United States illegally and has previously been deported on two occasions, in 2007 and again in 2009,” said Indiana State Police Sgt. John Perrine in a statement. “State police investigators are working with U.S. federal immigration officials and they have placed a hold on Orrego-Savala.”

The deaths of Jackson and Monroe are bound to give new attention to...

ILLEGAL ALIEN CAUGHT WITH 60 POUNDS OF COCAINE

CLAYTON, NC (The Johnston County Report) – An overnight drug bust is being considered one of the largest in Johnston County history.

The Johnston County Sheriff’s Office and federal DEA agents executed a search warrant at a home on Buckhorn Lane off Buffalo Road near Clayton late Monday night and seized 28 kilos of cocaine weighing 61.6 pounds and 20 pounds of marijuana.

Sheriff’s Captain Jeff Caldwell said the cocaine had a potential street value of $2.8 million and the marijuana a potential street value of $24,000.

Manuel Antonio Mendez, 40, of Buckhorn Lane, Clayton was charged with 6 felony drug trafficking offenses, two counts of conspiracy and one count of maintaining a vehicle or dwelling for a controlled substance.

Johnston County Sheriff Steve Bizzell said this is one of the biggest drug busts in the 19 years he has been Sheriff.

“This is just a good example of the partnership between us, state, and federal agencies working together for the good of Johnston County,” Sheriff Bizzell told WTSB News.

Mendez is being...
