@@shelaleon1879 The church also refused to help the Jewish and then sheltered Nazi officials and helped them escape. I think it’s hilarious because they think they can represent God’s word. My God is a loving God and I putting people in ovens and buggering little boys is heinous. Of course these perverts will be absolved by a similar sicko in a black dress. Confess that you are a serial killer in Confession and magically you are back in the good graces of the church; just say your Hail Marys.
@@melissamiller4740 It's one of the reasons I left the Catholic Church and religion all together. I just could no longer handle the hypocrisy and superiority complex.
Oh yeah, I believe that. I have yet to see the church proactively go out and deliberately rid themselves of the known criminals in their ranks. I have seen them hide and lie for them plenty of times, though, lying by omission about abusive priests, moving them from one location to another where they simply prey on new innocent families. Of course, this man is an exception and not the unfortunately common child molesting kind of victimizer I’m talking about. This guy was another kind of monster. That poor girl, Regine-what a shame and waste of life. Like any victim of violent crime , she deserved so much better. She and their child deserved the chance to live out their lives together and he ended that for his own selfish reasons. He murdered because he *didn’t want to look bad. * I will never understand that mindset and that emotional logic, ever.
Pedos are a protected class. In Hollywood, politics, and other large communities. It seems like the catholic oriests are the worst, but they are the easiest to vilify. (Lapsed catholic here. Not excusing just adding my 2 cents.)
It’s so sad that she was abused by the priest during her lifetime and then by the church after her death. The poor child and her family lost their dignity with having her truth denied and removed from the headstone.
I would keep going back and writing in what was taken out. I would use a black permanent market. And every time they erased it, I would be back writing it in again.
@@jamesLorrain-z6t why would I want to know about it? I am happy being pagan. I live a peaceful life without fake holy men telling me to do as they say and not as they do. Besides, I don’t care who you are, no one deserves to be degraded like that in life or death.
@@kskollections2142 Glad you are a happy pagan. You won’t be so happy after death unless you are born again. God is real. His Son is the Way, the Truth and the Life. It’s not about some religion or religious institution. It’s about a person, Jesus Christ. Believe Him and what He says, turn from your denial and be saved because eternity is a very long time. This life is brief.
Stories like this always make my heart hurt. To see anyone in a position of authority misusing it for really messed up reasons makes it so hard to trust people in almost any capacity.
As an irish Catholic its upsetting to say there were so many scandals that happened in the Catholic church in Ireland that later come to light but so unaware of it Thanks again Oddy another really interesting video ❤
The Catholic organization should not forbid men to marry. This should be a personal choice and not forced on anyone. Throw out celibacy, allow marriage. Not everyone can live a celibate life. The priests would be less corrupt.
Even in the end, the church had control over her family. This young girl brutally murdered and her unborn child disfigured. Sickening. Great story telling Oddie.
Prayers for the dead are absolutely useless. Pray for people to come to Jesus Christ while they are alive. They make their choice on earth, and when they die, their fate is sealed. Heaven or hell.
His interest in women should have been the one and only warning this vocation was not something he should have been forced into. Interesting how they call it a vocation, instead of a calling. Great video as usual Oddy!
This story is horrific and somehow made even worse that the Church successfully were able to deny the murder victim the right to make the circumstances of her death and that of her baby publicly known on her gravestone.
This one was a particularly gruesome.as well as deplorable story! Another shameful part of the history of the Catholic Church! Thanks Oddie for another great video!
I can't remember the name of that man but if it's the one I think it is -- he got live in prison and just recently died. He had some big major health issues -- maybe that was a sort of punishment for doing such awful things in life? Who knows. Would be nice if everyone could just be helpful and we could all live with peace and understanding. May the victim's at the hand's of that priest rest in peace with our Lord.🙏 Oddie brings us such interesting & informative story's and always fights for the under dog -- and makes sure they're remembered. Thank you Sir 🎩
New Subscriber from Alabama, USA 🇺🇸 here!🙋🏻♀️ I absolutely love your TH-cam channel! You tell about mysteries that no other channel has. It gets really old hearing about the same old things over and over again. Keep up the great work!
Hello Oddiettees. His voice is amazing and sexy also! Love the way he slips his name into the videos like store names on markets and restaurants! So kool. I don’t like the moving old photos though!
Another excellent presentation, Oddie! Horrifying to think of all the cover-ups supported by the Catholic Church and this was such a terrifying example. Thank you.
Desnoyers lived to be 90 yrs and catered to by the church, while everything or person he encountered he destroyed them in one way or another. You have a priest who continually gets into carnal behavior over and over, yet the clergy keeps moving him around to other parishes. There was no way he wanted or respected priesthood he should have been dismissed but went on to become a MONSTER !
This was really well presented. What a sad ending to her story though- not even a mention of the baby on their tombstone, as well as the defaced inscription. People should leave flowers and little toys to remind the church.

That ear-trumpet story had me laughing out loud!! What a hilarious memory! Thank you for telling her story. Too many abused soul's stories are successfully swept under the rug. You are her champion in this time and place, and we, the listeners, are her witnesses. 💐
Lots of Catholic priests being moved here in America too, being prosecuted for abusing children. Thank you for presenting this case. It was well done as always!
What a heinous crime, and to think the perpetrator was protected by the Church and so escaped the death penalty, and even was paroled and lived to a ripe old age. So unjust! Thank you for bringing this obscure crime to light. On a lighter note, I wish I'd been able to visit your incarnation as Fr. Ambrose Clementine. Dreadful sorry, Clementine. Lol. So lovely to hear your kittycat's sweet voice, even if she is complaining, lol
So glad I reminded my algorithm that I was a subscriber last night by binge watching your videos from the last year! Now I got an update for the first time in EVER
This was fantastic! I love French true crime. I speak French, and your pronunciation is superb. I actually enjoy going to confession, though I don't go often enough. 😊
What a shocking crime! Thank you Oddy for covering the case for us. God sees everything and I am pretty sure He is especially unhappy with those who cover up such heinous things who are supposed to be working for Him. P.S. St. Clementine’s sounds like a lovely place 😊
Thank you for your kind feedback and insights Dana, glad you enjoyed the presentation despite the fact of the subject matter. The village of Lubberly and the church of Saint Clementine’s, is absolutely wonderful! If you could imagine a quaint 1950s English hamlet, where time has stood still and the gentle folk of the village go to quench their psychotic rage at the historical inn, The Throttled Snake. Ahh memories!
My husband was in seminary to become priest. Much to his mother’s dismay, he quit and moved to Texas and married me. Lol! Another interesting case well presented as usual. Thank you! ❤
Hi Oddy! I've been watching you for years now and just wanted you to know that your videos are my happy little excursion from reality. Thank you for a the hard work you do keeping us entertained. It's always wonderful to see you. I hope you have a great day! 😊
Ty for another video oddie listend to this while I cleaned my room amazing work as always thank you for your time and hard work into making the videos ☺️
Another great one!! Thank you! ❤ And I’m laughing bc I picked up “Meowoddy’s” meow but thought it was my cat! Lol My cat refuses the expensive food too… then I thought, is it equivalent to some of the healthy, diet human foods we don’t like but costa a lot?? 😊 Thanks for all the research you do, bringing us such interesting, true stories and the beautiful, detailed images & sounds.
Very glad you enjoyed it, Vanessa! Thank you so much for your positive feedback. ☺️ Actually, it’s not the expensive food that she refuses, she will absolutely not eat the cheap food - but she is very choosy which expensive food is offered to her, bearing in mind that this cat was born in a barn!
My two boys are the same. Standing there looking at all the cat food for 30m trying to find something they might like. I enjoyed the story. I saw your fur baby once, she is a lovely little girl. Show her again please 😊.
@@Melody-cp9pq as we speak my wife is cooking her fresh chicken thigh, she loves the fatty skin from them - totally spoilt but then again she’s very old and deserves it. Well these videos are over two years old, I’m pretty sure that she appears in some of them after that. So you might see her in upcoming videos! I wonder why can’t become so fussy, especially when they’ve started off life eating normal catfood, somehow their tastes become refined and they want the most expensive or freshest food.
Love your work! You have a great voice, educational stories with great content and vision. I especially enjoy focusing on you and the calming effect you deliver. Keep it up please!
Many thanks! We’re having a heat wave at the moment, but don’t worry we will soon be swapping around - our summer is slowly coming to the end, and yours will just be beginning!
Thank you 0ddie, one more story that Everyone should hear. I hope you & Odette have enjoyed your Summer. Take care, much love to you from New York City 🌏🕊
Very glad you enjoyed it my friend, thank you so much for reaching out with your kind feedback from New York City - wishing you much sunshine from Switzerland!
Such a sad story! But wonderfully presented, as always! I was curious about the film footage shown during the video. It matched the story so well. Did they make a movie about out this story? Or was the footage from an unrelated film plot? Love ❤️ from Los Angeles!
That’s it! Size of an antique gramophone speaker 😄 What we witnessed is a relic from the Victorian age, not many can say that they have seen it in action 😅
Oddie, I am a long time subscriber of your channel. I have never left a comment, but I must say that I should have. Your channel has always been so entertaining. It is fascinating to listen, and see your creativity on the screen regarding the stories you have decided to retell. I have found out, largely in part through your channel, that the truth is indeed stranger than fiction. Thank you so much Oddie for keeping me captivated and entertained over the several years that have passed since you started your channel. By the way, I remember on one of your broadcasts from many years ago you asked us, your audience to guess where you were from based on your accent. Haha, I got it ✅ right, and I must say that your accent is not overly Australian, but I guessed it right. Well, I ❤ bid you a good day, and I will be ready for your next story. From a thankful fan from Las Vegas, Nevada. Bravo 👏 and Cheers 🍻 Oddie! Stay 😎 cool kid!
Well, thank you for finally revealing yourself in the comment section! Thank you so much for reaching out with your kind feedback, I’m so glad you’re enjoying my presentation and being a longtime loyal viewer. 🙏😄 Oh my goodness you live in Las Vegas, I’ve always been fascinated with 50s Las Vegas - such a curious area to build a city in the early 1900s - but it worked!
Love the way youve structured your channels, Videos are incredibly put together , Love the music too, Great Narrative voice .....RIP TO ALL THE VICTIMS 👼 🕊🙏🌸💔✝️🥀
Another interesting story Oddie thanks. Like u say he was forced into priesthood, really knowing that he wouldn't be able to live up to his expectations. Very sad that he went on to live many years, whereas the little baby was depraved of her life, and the mother as well. No justice at all 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for your chat at the end. At least you mentioned priests who were good men. There are many of them. The others, the evil ones, cast a long shadow. As for Confession, what do you think people do in therapy? With the quality of many of the therapists, I'll take Confession anytime.
I loved this video, despite the need for more Oddie's-art-touches on the still scenes, like of cats, rats, and smoke! I also love the desktop confessional. I'm off to Amazon to see if I can find one for myself, just for the nostalgia of it.
I so loved your stories. Years a go we had a priest who was accused of sa to several kids male and female. I don't know where went nor do I care. I hope didn't torture and other child. I love you Oddie and Mrs Oddie. Be safe my friend.!💕💕💕💕💙
Oh what a cold and terrible story! As a Catholic it is very grieving. We were raised to understand that the Mass was our focus and was holy even if the priest was a drunk, a fool, etc. But to enable that monster! A sinful legacy for that archdiocese. I am no fan of the current occupant of the Throne of Peter in Rome, and corruption continues, I'm afraid. But stories like this only strengthen me in my faith, a treasure in these troubled times.
I've never heard of this case. I asked myself why Father Desnoyers stayed in the priesthood, but I think you're right -- he did so because it gave him a position of trust which allowed him to prey on women and satisfy his desires. As always, I enjoy how you use vintage photos, music and your narration to bring this case to life. And a pub called "The Throttled Snake" actually exists? I'd go just to say I've been there! Sounds very Harry Potterish.
Thanks for your interesting insights and positive feedback. much appreciated 😊 The Parish of Lubberly is a secret hamlet and the folk there don't take to outsiders, so the Throttled Snakes is only for local people.
TH-cam up to their old tricks, now you understand why I don’t get many views anymore. The only reason I bring these videos to TH-cam, is for loyal viewers who appreciate them, even if you tube doesn’t.
I knew the story, and yet you always add some unknown facts such as the tombstone being modified... that says it all about the church. And yes, until very late, many orphans or poor kids were just destined for the priesthood, a long tradition reminiscent of the oblates of the Middle Ages. Excellent research as usual. Thank you.
I have heard the eldest son inherits, the second goes to the military, the third gets the priesthood. Daughters that weren’t able to be married in an arrangement beneficial to both parties went to the convent.
Geez even in their burial site he had the last word, or should I say the Catholic church had the last word! Not only was her life and her babys life taken gruesomely, but the cc wanted to cover it up!! It’s about time they restored the original tombstone as her mother designed it, justice should prevail for them, at least in death. 😔.
I wonder if this man hadn't gone into the priesthood, if he would have kept his affections to just one woman, or carried on a string of affairs that got him into similar predicaments.
My view of the catholic church is one of disdain. Not because of what the priest did but because of how the church covered up the crime by erasing the truth on the tombstone and hid the priest and protected him the rest of his miserable life. This is such a sad story. 😢
My biggest issue with the Catholic church is how no one is coming from within to remove the current pope, who favors homosexual priests, refuses to appologize for the mass murder of indigenous children, and publicly criticized the law firm representing victims of sexual abuse at the hands of Catholic priests for advertising an extended date to file suit. Priests are supposed to be celebate for one thing, and the book of Romans is clear about homosexuality (not my view). He clearly chooses money over God with his refusal to offer an apology to the families of the murdered and discarded children. How close to evil can a man be? And the flock follows?!? SMH, really WTF Catholic folks?
Those poor women who trusted in a clergy person...especially those impregnated by him. What repulsive behavior on his part. So sorry dear Regine and her dear little baby girl were killed by this evil man. So very tragic. What a horrible way to die for that little baby. ❤💐
Oh wow, you brought an old memory back to me- I’m in Los Angeles, as a youth in Catholic school we had a Monsignor that was visiting from Ireland. He was quite deaf, old and I heard later that he liked the drink haha.. anyway, my church confessional also had a box type thing, and we had to shout our confessions because he couldn’t hear us! Not as bad as a trumpet but I had to laugh remembering that!
He was a sinister monster 😮 after death was horrible , cutting the child out of its mothers womb is unforgivable he should have got the death penalty but it sounds like influence stopped that from happening thank you for a good story I love the vintage photography too

To this date, the church keeps on protecting and covering up for these priests that have hurt and destroyed so many lives.
That is messed up

Thanks for your very kind feedback Amy - much appreciated 😊
Me neither.I have never heard this story.
Having affairs is a pretty good indication he's not meant for Priesthood. Lying constantly is another sign.
I don't know about that, given the history of the Catholic Church, I'd say he was a poster boy for that vile organization.
Also add murder to his resume, what a vile evil person.
@@sharynmorgan944 Yet another cherished tradition within the Catholic Church.

And I’m laughing bc I picked up “Meowoddy’s” meow but thought it was my cat! Lol
My cat refuses the expensive food too… then I thought, is it equivalent to some of the healthy, diet human foods we don’t like but costa a lot?? 😊
Thanks for all the research you do, bringing us such interesting, true stories and the beautiful, detailed images & sounds.
Very glad you enjoyed it, Vanessa!
Thank you so much for your positive feedback. ☺️
Actually, it’s not the expensive food that she refuses, she will absolutely not eat the cheap food - but she is very choosy which expensive food is offered to her, bearing in mind that this cat was born in a barn!
Oh bless you and your senior kitty! XX
Thank you ☺️
Good morning 🙋🌄🌞, Oddie! How are you doing today? Great, I like thinking! Thank You
Good morning!
@ObsoleteOddity I sent you a "thanks". I'm sorry it's not more.

Truth
My two boys are the same. Standing there looking at all the cat food for 30m trying to find something they might like. I enjoyed the story. I saw your fur baby once, she is a lovely little girl. Show her again please 😊.
@@Melody-cp9pq as we speak my wife is cooking her fresh chicken thigh, she loves the fatty skin from them - totally spoilt but then again she’s very old and deserves it.
Well these videos are over two years old, I’m pretty sure that she appears in some of them after that. So you might see her in upcoming videos! I wonder why can’t become so fussy, especially when they’ve started off life eating normal catfood, somehow their tastes become refined and they want the most expensive or freshest food.
@@ObsoleteOddity Isn't that the truth. But they are our children.
Oh brilliant 😊 im looking forward to getting lost in this ,thank you Oddie ❤
Thank you! 😊 hope you enjoy the presentation Natasha!
Love your work! You have a great voice, educational stories with great content and vision. I especially enjoy focusing on you and the calming effect you deliver. Keep it up please!
Thanks for your really great feedback Carol, a truly wonderful compliment - much appreciated :)
You are most welcome.
Beautifully done Oddie👍👏.
greetings from cold Sydney
Many thanks! We’re having a heat wave at the moment, but don’t worry we will soon be swapping around - our summer is slowly coming to the end, and yours will just be beginning!
Well done, Oddy! I always enjoy your videos ❤
Very glad you enjoyed the presentation, thank you so much for reaching out with your positive feedback!
I’ve read about many Catholic priests doing horrible things but this one tops them all
I had never heard about this case until today, and now I wished I still hadn’t. Horrid.
You crack me up! Wonderful stuff.
Glad you enjoyed it 😄
Interesting case oddity love it ❤
Thank you so much! 😊
Thank you 0ddie, one more story that Everyone should hear.
I hope you & Odette have enjoyed your Summer.
Take care, much love to you from
New York City 🌏🕊
Very glad you enjoyed it my friend, thank you so much for reaching out with your kind feedback from New York City - wishing you much sunshine from Switzerland!
Such a sad story! But wonderfully presented, as always! I was curious about the film footage shown during the video. It matched the story so well. Did they make a movie about out this story? Or was the footage from an unrelated film plot? Love ❤️ from Los Angeles!
Thank you for your kind feedback, Martha, very glad you enjoyed it!
Yes, they made a movie about this, but it’s only in French.
@@ObsoleteOddity Thank you so much for your reply! ❤️
Oh my.
Still (in)famous here in France.
My great grandparents would come over once a week to watch I Love Lucy. Great grandpa had an ear trumpet. I swear it was bigger than the t.v.
That’s it! Size of an antique gramophone speaker 😄
What we witnessed is a relic from the Victorian age, not many can say that they have seen it in action 😅
Oddie, I am a long time subscriber of your channel. I have never left a comment, but I must say that I should have. Your channel has always been so entertaining. It is fascinating to listen, and see your creativity on the screen regarding the stories you have decided to retell. I have found out, largely in part through your channel, that the truth is indeed stranger than fiction. Thank you so much Oddie for keeping me captivated and entertained over the several years that have passed since you started your channel. By the way, I remember on one of your broadcasts from many years ago you asked us, your audience to guess where you were from based on your accent. Haha, I got it ✅ right, and I must say that your accent is not overly Australian, but I guessed it right. Well, I ❤ bid you a good day, and I will be ready for your next story. From a thankful fan from Las Vegas, Nevada.
Bravo 👏 and Cheers 🍻 Oddie! Stay 😎 cool kid!
Well, thank you for finally revealing yourself in the comment section!
Thank you so much for reaching out with your kind feedback, I’m so glad you’re enjoying my presentation and being a longtime loyal viewer. 🙏😄
Oh my goodness you live in Las Vegas, I’ve always been fascinated with 50s Las Vegas - such a curious area to build a city in the early 1900s - but it worked!
Wow!!! I haven't seen anything from you in while!! Glad to see your still making videos!
Hi Ashley, I upload to TH-cam every two weeks!
So the priest got 1 year of imprisonment for each year of her life and no punishment for the baby. Sad
Thanks
Thank you very much for your kind donation, your support is much appreciated! 😊🙏
Love the way youve structured your channels, Videos are incredibly put together , Love the music too, Great
Narrative voice .....RIP TO ALL THE VICTIMS 👼 🕊🙏🌸💔✝️🥀
I really appreciate your great feedback, thank you so much!
Love the Mini confessional It's Adorable!!
Always interesting!!!!!❤
Glad you think so! Thanks
Another interesting story Oddie thanks. Like u say he was forced into priesthood, really knowing that he wouldn't be able to live up to his expectations. Very sad that he went on to live many years, whereas the little baby was depraved of her life, and the mother as well. No justice at all 🙏🙏🙏
Glad you enjoyed it, Shirley, thank you so much for your feedback.
Thank you for your chat at the end. At least you mentioned priests who were good men. There are many of them. The others, the evil ones, cast a long shadow. As for Confession, what do you think people do in therapy? With the quality of many of the therapists, I'll take Confession anytime.
I loved this video, despite the need for more Oddie's-art-touches on the still scenes, like of cats, rats, and smoke! I also love the desktop confessional. I'm off to Amazon to see if I can find one for myself, just for the nostalgia of it.
Glad you enjoyed it! All those little extras appear in future videos 😂😂
Wow had no idea! Incredible story telling as usual!!
Thanks so much! Much appreciated, Veronica ☺️
I so loved your stories. Years a go we had a priest who was accused of sa to several kids male and female. I don't know where went nor do I care. I hope didn't torture and other child.
I love you Oddie and Mrs Oddie. Be safe my friend.!💕💕💕💕💙
Thank you so much for reaching out with your kind feedback 😊
Oh what a cold and terrible story!
As a Catholic it is very grieving.
We were raised to understand that the Mass was our focus and was holy even if the priest was a drunk, a fool, etc.
But to enable that monster!
A sinful legacy for that archdiocese.
I am no fan of the current occupant of the Throne of Peter in Rome, and corruption continues, I'm afraid.
But stories like this only strengthen me in my faith, a treasure in these troubled times.
Hello, Peace be with you ! God bless! Its be a lone time since my last confession !! Thank you for great videos!
I'm listening my child, confess your heinous sins!
So glad you enjoyed the presentation - very much appreciated 😊
Great video! Thank you for creating it! :)
Glad you liked it!
I've never heard of this case. I asked myself why Father Desnoyers stayed in the priesthood, but I think you're right -- he did so because it gave him a position of trust which allowed him to prey on women and satisfy his desires. As always, I enjoy how you use vintage photos, music and your narration to bring this case to life. And a pub called "The Throttled Snake" actually exists? I'd go just to say I've been there! Sounds very Harry Potterish.
Thanks for your interesting insights and positive feedback. much appreciated 😊
The Parish of Lubberly is a secret hamlet and the folk there don't take to outsiders, so the Throttled Snakes is only for local people.
This lovely young girl and her baby, will never be forgotten by the people who knew her and their children will keep her memory alive.

TH-cam up to their old tricks, now you understand why I don’t get many views anymore.
The only reason I bring these videos to TH-cam, is for loyal viewers who appreciate them, even if you tube doesn’t.
@@ObsoleteOddity I appreciate you!
Thank you, my friend ☺️
I love your voice. So soothing
That’s very kind of you, thank you Pamela 😊
Ty for the video
I knew the story, and yet you always add some unknown facts such as the tombstone being modified... that says it all about the church.
And yes, until very late, many orphans or poor kids were just destined for the priesthood, a long tradition reminiscent of the oblates of the Middle Ages.
Excellent research as usual. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind feedback, my friend, very glad you enjoyed the presentation!
Hi just found you and enjoyed thankyou 😊
Welcome! You have a long played list to go through and I do hope you enjoy it!
I have heard the eldest son inherits, the second goes to the military, the third gets the priesthood. Daughters that weren’t able to be married in an arrangement beneficial to both parties went to the convent.
What a great disappointment. He was out of control. And protected till the end of his life
Well not in the afterlife. Let’s just say he’s facing divine justice now.
Geez even in their burial site he had the last word, or should I say the Catholic church had the last word! Not only was her life and her babys life taken gruesomely, but the cc wanted to cover it up!! It’s about time they restored the original tombstone as her mother designed it, justice should prevail for them, at least in death. 😔.
I really like your name before Oddie, but love Oddie!🤗🤗🤗
I wonder if this man hadn't gone into the priesthood, if he would have kept his affections to just one woman, or carried on a string of affairs that got him into similar predicaments.
My view of the catholic church is one of disdain. Not because of what the priest did but because of how the church covered up the crime by erasing the truth on the tombstone and hid the priest and protected him the rest of his miserable life. This is such a sad story. 😢
My biggest issue with the Catholic church is how no one is coming from within to remove the current pope, who favors homosexual priests, refuses to appologize for the mass murder of indigenous children, and publicly criticized the law firm representing victims of sexual abuse at the hands of Catholic priests for advertising an extended date to file suit.
Priests are supposed to be celebate for one thing, and the book of Romans is clear about homosexuality (not my view). He clearly chooses money over God with his refusal to offer an apology to the families of the murdered and discarded children. How close to evil can a man be? And the flock follows?!? SMH, really WTF Catholic folks?
It's not uncommon to hide the identity of high profile criminals in prison. It's standard practice and the church has nothing to do with it
@@maskettaman1488 so they didn’t hide him? 😆
@@sophiar6996 What?
Those poor women who trusted in a clergy person...especially those impregnated by him. What repulsive behavior on his part. So sorry dear Regine and her dear little baby girl were killed by this evil man. So very tragic. What a horrible way to die for that little baby. ❤💐
Bloody hell. So much for the sanctity of life. Thank you Oddie for shedding light on this dark hearted man.
Thank you for watching my friend!
Love your stories ❤
Thank you!
It's absolutely horrifying! And then to do that to an unborn baby! 😭😭there are no words
Someone from her family should inscribe the truth on a new headstone.
Thank You Again Oddi
Always welcome!
great story and narration
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you
@@ObsoleteOddity We have 104 altar boys and four priests.
So he lived 90 years and one of his victims lived less than one year. This is not justice.
Less than an hour, even 😢
Sometimes, it really frightens me that people like this walks the earth 🌎
Great episode thanks
Much appreciated, thank you kindly!
Oh wow, you brought an old memory back to me- I’m in Los Angeles, as a youth in Catholic school we had a Monsignor that was visiting from Ireland. He was quite deaf, old and I heard later that he liked the drink haha.. anyway, my church confessional also had a box type thing, and we had to shout our confessions because he couldn’t hear us! Not as bad as a trumpet but I had to laugh remembering that!
That’s a fun story and a great anecdote, thank you for sharing! 🙏
He was a sinister monster 😮 after death was horrible , cutting the child out of its mothers womb is unforgivable he should have got the death penalty but it sounds like influence stopped that from happening thank you for a good story I love the vintage photography too
Very glad you enjoyed the presentation, thank you so much for reaching out with your positive feedback!
