Upstaging the Vatican

The priest at Holy Family Catholic Church in Edinburg, Texas, was arrested this weekend.  He was caught on tape drilling holes in the tires of one of his former parishioners who went to the bishop to ask for help after Father Eusebio Martinez wanted to kiss him on the mouth.

Martin Villanueva says he left Holy Family and went to another church.

“I wrote a letter to the bishop,” Villanueva said. “It made me feel sad because he told me it wouldn’t be right for him to meet with me. Then he tells me only the  authorities that  can fix this situation. The church is very strong with lawyers so that’s why I decided to go to the media.

Next thing he knew, his tires kept getting drill holes.  A man of modest means, Villanueva finally set up a camera to catch whoever was doing it.  And there ya go, the priest.

I guess he wanted to drill Villanueve one way or the other.

And in Houston, there’s more.

A well-known Catholic teacher at St. Thomas High School has resigned after allegations of misconduct. Father Jack Hanna was been with the all-boys school since 1981.

“He has acknowledged that he behaved inappropriately and will be receiving extensive residential treatment at the facility. He has expressed deep regret for any harm caused by his behavior,” the statement said in part.

Since 1981?  That’s 32 years and nobody saw nothin’?  No smoke signals?
