NEWS ALERT:

Thanks again to an alert reader of Lella's blog,


There is a long article in an Austrian newspaper, the Donaukurier, - I don't have time to translate it -
www.donaukurier.de/nachrichten/bayern/Eichstaett-Was-wird-hier-bloss-gespielt;art155371...
that says the 26-year-old man alleged to have been sexually abused by Mons. Walter Mixa when he was Bishop of Eichstaett, denies that he was ever abused by Mixa, and has come out and spoken to them in order to defend him. The newspaper also claims that the police in Ingolstadt who were reported to be investigating Mixa preparatory to filing charges have not done so because they were not even given any name to investigate.

Meanwhile, Mixa has resigned, and the Pope has accepted his resignation, in connection with earlier charges that he punished children by beating them when he was a priest (charges he first denied, then admitted) and that he had used church funds in the past to purchase personal items.
