I wrecked impact on the industry.

And thats why small landowner associations hope that whomever is elected to the presidency will be able to distinction between all actors in the business. We all remember how were mistreated during the mistress of christina kirsner and how they saw us as oligarchs not in a very good situation with the current government we hope the next government will make a difference between Big Companies and us.

Shauna is going on i want to read you know forward the money. To fight the consequence of one of 150 gates i once determination to remind you depend on aljazeera. I find these things that i hadnt looked at since i wrote them and im noticing like wow i was really in a messed up kind of place like things that were very dark suicidal you know almost as if i was like writing down prayers for a long time jews have carminow kept this box closed shoved into a dresser drawer. This year he returned to these journal entries from high school finding traces of his encounters with a Catholic Priest psychological killer sexual predator who him poses ashes on the forehead of his helpless victim ashes contain fingerprints ashes are a fetish symbol turn him on. To super members the smell of this priest cologne and what kind of candies he kept on his desk this is a jew new year yearbook he also remembers something more painful which for a long time he tried to forget there is more this name father patrick. I do remember there is something with a belt buckle something with a belt buckle just the action of the belt opening in the sound of the the plane king of it him touching my leg. Rubbing up and down my leg and and that was the thing that was like well thats not supposed to be happening. Joseph is not alone several other men have come forward in a series of exclusive interviews with fault lines. They allege years of abuse at the hands of father john patrick in Catholic Schools across new york city he just so does that its. List something everybody. Sparking the latest revelations in a decades old scandal thats shaken the Catholic Church to its foundation or spare us 2 months of the tough mark out exactly right Timothy Dolan the archbishop of new york told the 2 and a half 1000000 catholics under his watch to rest assured i heard that what you want is how debility transparency and action to counter the c. He claimed that there were no active priest space incredible abuse allegations in his archdiocese clergy abuse he said was largely a problem of the past. Our investigation into father patrick revealed a different story while they were allowing these these predator priests to frolic around aimlessly on the streets of new york with open access you know under the shield of a collar its a story that raises questions about new yorks catholic hierarchy and whether its need to has put the prestigious of the church above the survival of its victims i wonder if there was someone that went right up to knock on the door of same patches of the drill and said father so and so did this to me. How long would it take for a father so and so be removed or suspended from that ministry. How long would it take for the investigation to begin i think it should not take more than you know an hour instead of. A week a month. A year but theres a moral obligation are you willing you willing to tell your priest because im sure there are 2 masters in malta more allegation by you that i should have thought why you were willing to put your in harms way and what must all you know they stop what do you think the church should do to stop hiding. This man who well call gabriel never forgot the abuse he faced as a 12 year Old Catholic School student so thats the church you see there where the black rufus a hat thats correct 3 today this view from his home serves as a constant reminder that when you look at the window now you can see the church what do you think about. Just how that destroyed my you. Really get back to kill them honestly here in the center of manhattans Washington Heights neighborhood sits incarnation parish and school. Was supposed to be a refuge for gabriel who grew up without his parents paint a picture for me about what your life looked like a bad time. Pretty last. Straw last. May your emotional to think about. That. Everything was cool school and my grandma grandma was very sick its not that. Bad it was just me and her. It was 1904 and father john patrick had just been ordained his 1st post would be gabriels church. Theres a photo here where little altar boy is jumping into father paddocks arms and then father patrick says these are my children pressing the boys head closer now i look at all children that i deal with as my children. Gabriel was one of those altar boys he told us that father patrick molested him during confession for 2 years how do you get always im confessing you dont have a crowd do you some one on one thing. Confession was im sitting on a chair. Hes sitting directly in front of me is knees are one is here the other ones here ok hes got his left hand behind your head and his right hand is here and his right hand would be from your knee and sometimes end up over here most of the time and then and then he would you know and i would actually point and touch and say do you use that to you masturbate say the truth. Oh do tell him hell marys. Do you think you were mentioning before that you felt like he would prey on certain people i think the most the more Vulnerable People yeah. You know quiet kids what makes you think that he was going after vulnerable kids. Because i was definitely one of them. Think about it. What parent is going to complain to you that his son is being touched inappropriately and i want. Gabriel almost canceled our interview he said it made him sick to think about these memories. With the father of 2 knew that father patrick was still out there as he face any consequences for their actions no. How are you still. With kids. Out. For this investigation we spoke to 5 men who say that father patrick abused them. Their attorneys told us the allegations form a pattern of abuse in Catholic Schools from the early 1980 s. Until the early to thousands these are the people that know one another and then in the aggregate as theyre coming forward telling thin same and similar stories a pattern of behavior to say and weve got to sort of survivors have come forward from 3 different boroughs survivors of different ages from different boroughs at different facilities and told the same story monsignor patrick using his position of authority isolates those boys either at the school or in some cases in his bedroom in some cases at the church wherever the opportunity may present itself. By 2001 patrick was an academic dean in Staten Island or jews of carminow was a student. High school was difficult for joseph jr steve joey karen heres whats happening her shed been suicidal and was hospitalized missing weeks of class has been making children of all ages when jews have returned to School Father patrick told his parents that hed keep their sons medication in his office i think of my students today who are 1617 years old and they have their issues they have their troubles and they go to people for help. And imagine taking advantage of that person in that unique situation. Thats the worst of the worst to take advantage of someone in their time of most need. Their most vulnerable. In march 29th teen joseph reported father patrick to the archdiocese. But months later patrick remained an active priest here at neutered on parish in upper manhattan. We went there on a sunday in june just as he finished saying mass. I have a question for you do you know joseph are my no Joseph Joseph hermano. The suspect sexually abused by 68 weeks back i lent. You dont know him hes not the only one we know of several other men think. He would. Drink fashion stakes. So you think i. Would actually spoken to many of them and they say the reason that there is because they dont want children to be unsafe and to go after what they were actually really father paddocks denial echoed what he told the media in march its really hard to speculate because thats when a man named Raphael Mendoza student front of the church and told his story this is. Circular Harvey Robert says slowly or go to my genitals but patrick said he still had the support of the archdiocese direct quote was right now i know i do he said i even spoke to the cardinal. Cardinal dolan how long do you think that Cardinal Dolan will continue to protect you as more men come out with their stories. Father patrick said he didnt remember joseph but joseph told us he cant forget father patrick. Were very very serious and. I had this stupid d. V. D. Of like these clips maybe i interviewed him or something for the t. V. News i dont know with each discovery from his archive jews have seen counters when the priest came into sharper focus and there it is the junior ring ceremony mask i had forgotten that i was the elector at the mass that he was the celebrant of the mass. Its called the very name. The only church to separate from the bible and father patrick sat right behind him and theres no possible way that he could forget who i was based on the number of interactions i had with him the only thing that would make sense to me is if you know if i was just another kid that he touched and it was like you know one in the same. Faceless nameless. You know that was his way of justifying it blocking it out thats the only thing i can think of just another kid that he touched yeah seems to be quite a number of us you know. Patricks accusers had reported their abuse to family friends
