The Fr. Robinson Travesty

Have a look at THIS. It seems I'm not alone in considering the conviction of Fr. Robinson to be a travesty. It's about time for sensible people to speak out about this, instead of being cowed by irresponsible journalism and people with their own agendas.

Jeffrey,

The thing to keep in mind is that Fr. Robinson will eventually stand in judgment in front of the only judge that matters, and once there, only the real & true facts will prevail.

Anything that man does here on earth will fall by the wayside during this only/real judgment.

The events of many years ago are tainted by time and faulty, human memories...

When events are tainted by time and human memory, there's no constitutional way to bring charges, much less convict anyone.

However, while I have only hearsay knowledge of the Fr. Robinson case, I do have direct personal observation knowledge of satanic ritual activity in Ohio in the 1970's. Granted, not in Toledo -- but you can't discount it entirely.

Again, I have only hearsay knowledge of the DNA evidence. I prefer to wait before venturing an opinion on whether a travesty has or has not occurred.

I'm afraid I kept rather close track of the mess. I've never seen a trial where "beyond a reasonable doubt" was so mangled beyond recognition.

It's too bad that can't be part of the charge to the jury at every trial.
