Passion perversion allegedly hushed up
A Philadelphia jury heard Tuesday about Catholic schoolboys who
said they had to strip before a priest and endure whippings as they played
Christ in a Passion play.
Prosecutors pursuing a child-endangerment case against Monsignor
William Lynn for allegedly helping the Roman Catholic church cover up the
sexual abuse of children by priests said the Rev. Thomas J. Smith remained in
ministry despite those 2002 accusations.
Church officials and an in-house review board didn’t think Smith
was after sexual gratification when he allegedly had boys undress or get naked
with him in a hot tub.
