Diocese of Pheonix Bishop O’Brien Arrested

Bishop Thomas O’Brien has been charged with an involvement in a hit-and-run on a pedestrian. Of course, the Arizona Republic can’t help but get in a few jibes:

The prelate’s new turmoil, nearly biblical in scope, may put Arizona’s Catholic leadership in limbo as it rocks a diocese that has endured months of tortured scrutiny about deviant priests who were allowed to prey on children.

Disgusting. What does this have to do with pederasts? Nothing of course, but the anti-Catholics in the press still can’t waste a moment to stick it to the Church or her leaders.
