Ex-priest extradited to Ireland in sex-abuse case
Source: San Francisco Chronicle

(06-07) 09:34 PDT SANTA ROSA --

A former Roman Catholic priest has been extradited from Northern California to his native Ireland to face charges that he sexually assaulted six boys from 1973 to 1981, authorities said today.

Patrick McCabe, 75, was handed over to officers from Ireland's national police service at San Francisco International Airport on Sunday night, said Michael Dyke, supervising deputy with the local U.S. Marshals Service.

A 2009 report sponsored by the Irish government on the Dublin Archdiocese's handling of sexual abuse said Catholic officials had moved McCabe to the United States after they became aware of complaints against him.

McCabe has denied the charges of sexual assault to Irish police.

1. I'll bet Gawd ain't laughing at the things going on in his temples.
The Shepherds porking the lambs...no wonder the world is so fucked up.

2. But he's a CHRISTIAN!
Of course you can trust a Christian! Such kind, gentle people, why, they'd never hurt a fly!

As if.

I take great comfort in knowing that the christers will soon reach such a fever pitch with their hatred, corruption and abuse of others that they will be as welcome in the USA as they've made themselves in many parts of Europe.

Sorry to all you "real" christers. Guess you should have spoken up.
