So there was a closet case. He became a priest. He slept with men (gasp). And, oh, yeah, the AP says he misspent a few bucks... OK, not exactly a few:
AP: Priest May Have Misspent $1.4 Million
AP: Priest May Have Misspent $1.4 Million
A priest who resigned from a church in an affluent Connecticut community misspent up to $1.4 million in parishioner donations to lead a life of luxury with another man, according to a church-directed investigation.Ahhhhhh, good old hypocrisy.The Rev. Michael Jude Fay spent church money on limousines, stays at top hotels, jewelry, Italian clothing and a Florida condominium shared with the other man, auditors hired by the diocese found. About half the money he spent was kept in a secret bank account, according to their report, which was mailed Friday to 1,700 parishioners of the Darien church and obtained in advance by The Associated Press.
