The Catholic Church's leading exorcist priest, Fr. Gabriele Amorth, says a teenage girl was kidnapped for Vatican sex parties by a gang involving Vatican police and foreign diplomats 30 years ago.

Amorth was appointed by the late John Paul II as the Vatican's chief exorcist. He said after one of the parties, 15-year-old Emanuela Orlandi was murdered and her body disposed of.
The outspoken priest says the schoolgirl was snatched from the streets of central Rome in the summer of 1983 and forced to take part in sex parties.
"This was a crime with a sexual motive. Parties were organized, with a Vatican gendarme acting as the 'recruiter' of the girls,” Father Amorth, 85, told La Stampa newspaper.
"The network involved diplomatic personnel from a foreign embassy to the Holy See. I believe Emanuela ended up a victim of this circle."
He also added that Vatican archivist monsignor Simeone Duca, “who was asked to recruit girls for parties with the help of the Vatican gendarmes”, also confirmed the girl was kidnapped for revelry.
Father Amorth’s revelations come as Italian police and forensic experts continue to examine remains they found in a murdered gangster's tomb a week ago in Rome's Sant'Apollinare basilica.

The grave of Enrico De Pedis, a mobster killed in 1990 by members of his outfit, was broken following an anonymous phone call saying the girl was buried along with the gangster.
Bones discovered near the mobster’s remains have not yet been positively identified as Emanuela’s.
But the priest doesn’t hesitate in accusing the Holy See of appalling crime:“I have never believed in the international theory. I have motives to believe that this was just a case of sexual exploitation.”

The debate over what happened to the daughter of a Vatican employee who was last seen returning home after music lessons three decades ago has raged in Italy, with some astonishing versions on the table.
Some investigators believe that the notorious gangster de Pedis was linked to her kidnap as he wanted to put pressure on Vatican officials to recover money that he had allegedly lent them.
The Vatican’s involvement in the kidnap was also suggested by the mobster’s girlfriend at the time of Orlandi's disappearance. The woman claimed the chief of the Vatican bank, Paul Marcinkus, was behind the crime.

The “international” theory says the girl was abducted to be used as a bargaining chip for the release from prison of Mehmet Ali Agca, a Turkish gunman who tried to kill John Paul II in St Peter's Square in 1981. This version of events has not been confirmed either.
Father Amorth is an outspoken priest and a colorful figure, mostly famous for claiming that yoga is Satanic because it leads to a worship of Hinduism. He dismissed the Harry Potter books as the “work of the Devil”, saying they encourage children to believe in black magic and wizardry.

Former Priest Defrocked for Sexual Abuse was Hired by TSA

The CBS 3 I-Team in Philadelphia reports that Thomas Harkins, a former Catholic priest in South Jersey until 2002 was defrocked for sexually abusing young girls. This same person is now working at a security terminal at Philadelphia International Airport for the TSA.

Harkin's main duty is to screen baggage but also involves screening passengers passing through body scanners and conducting pat-downs where necessary.

“The Diocese of Camden removed him from ministry because it found he sexually abused two young girls. Now, in a new lawsuit, a third woman is claiming she also is one of Harkins’ victims.” the CBS affiliate reports.

Details of the new lawsuit filed in a federal court against Harkins were revealed by the CBS team. It says that he sexually abused an 11-year-old girl up to 15 times in the early 1980s when he was a priest at Saint Anthony of Padua parish in Hammonton, NJ.

When confronted by the CBS team over the allegations, he refused to answer questions and sought refuge in a restricted TSA security area.

“They should know who they’re hiring,” Karen Polesir, a Philadelphia spokeswoman with the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP) told CBS. As the public, we are screened to our underwear getting on a plane, and yet they hire a man like that.” she added.

The TSA claims that it puts all its employees through background checks, and that Harkins was not flagged because criminal charges were never brought against him.

However, as we have repeatedly noted, this is not an isolated case. In fact, the TSA has consistently hired violent criminals and even pedophiles, indicating that the agency does not follow through on background checks.

Last month, a television station in Atlanta reported that the TSA is so swamped with background checks it is now hiring just about anybody to grope and irradiate the public.

“In a move that could affect security at airports around the nation, the Transportation Security Administration confirmed Wednesday it had such a backlog of background security checks, airport employers were allowed to hire any employee needed,” WSBTV reported. “TSA officials said the background checks are delayed, but they are processing them as fast as they can.”

Breaking News for Global Release:

Catholic Church Faces Disruption and Banishment as Irish Cardinal set to resign

Friday,May 4, 2012 - 7:00 pm GMT

A Communiqué from ITCCS International

Brussels and Dublin:

The Roman Catholic Church faces permanent disruption and banishment in at least five countries if it does not comply with ten “non-negotiable measures” by September 15, 2012, according to a global coalition of survivors of church rape and torture.

The list of measures was issued today at a meeting in Dublin, Ireland between Archbishop Dermot Martin and representatives of Anti Catholic Church Activists Worldwide (ACCAW), Magdalene Laundry survivors, and the International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State – Ireland (ITCCS).

The measures demanded of the Catholic Church include the defrocking of all child raping priests, the licensing of all other clergy as public servants, the return of the remains of all who died under Church care, the annulment of tax exemptions and other Church privileges, and there turn of all of the Church’s wealth generated by the exploitation of children.

The full statement outlining these measures is reproduced below, including an attached audio recording of the statement.

Issued on the eve of the impending resignation of the head of the Catholic Church in Ireland, Cardinal Sean Brady, for his protection of child raping priests, the statement was delivered by John Deegan of ACCAW and ITCCS Ireland members Gerry O’Donovan and Dave O’Brien, who confronted Archbishop Martin with the demands.

The Ten Point statement was issued by The International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State, an umbrella organization of over fifty organizations in the United States, Canada, Ireland,England and Australia.

“Pope Benedict and his Bishops have until midnight on September 15 to start complying with these measures” said ITCCS Secretary Kevin Annett today.

“After that, we will begin actions to halt the normal operation of the Roman Catholic Church around the world, and we will seek indictments against Pope Benedict and other Vatican officials for crimes against humanity and criminal conspiracy.”

The ACCAW, ITCCS and other groups have staged high profile occupations of Catholic churches during their regular services, and plan to escalate these actions into “a permanent campaign of non-violent disruption and civil disobedience aimed at the Roman Catholic Church … until the Church’s reign of terror over children is ended.”

An Open Letter to Archbishop Dermot Martin and the Bishops and Clergy of Ireland, from The International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State

Issued to a meeting with Archbishop Martin on May 4, 2012

My name is Kevin Annett and I am the Secretary of the five-nation body known as The International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State (ITCCS). I am speaking on behalf of the ITCCS and our affiliate organization in Ireland.

Our coalition represents over fifty organizations in Canada, the United States, Ireland, England and Australia, including many survivors of church terror.

We have also been recognized by seven aboriginal nations in North America, and been authorized by them to recover the remains of their relatives who died in Catholic Indian residential schools and orphanages; and to bring to justice those responsible for the death of over 50,000 children in these church-run institutions.

Let us state clearlythat the time for polite talk is over.

The Roman Catholic Church has imposed and is perpetrating a reign of terror and crimes against humanity on generations of children, is actively concealing those crimes and protecting child rapists and murderers in its ranks, and has shown no desire or capacity to change the policies or practices that allow these unspeakable crimes to continue.

Nevertheless, on behalf of the nations and survivors we represent, and the Executive Council of the International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State, I have been authorized to give the Church a final opportunity to change, by presenting the following demands to the Roman Catholic Church in Ireland, as we have already done to Pope Benedict, Joseph Ratzinger, and Vatican officials.

The following concrete actions by the Church are required if justice is to be won for its victims and if the crimes it has committed and continue to cover up are to end.

If the Church fails to abide by these basic commandments of humanity and the law, we will take permanent action to end its criminal regime.

1.      The Church must issue full reparations to all of its victims, including by paying for all of their medical and counseling bills, the cost of the irrehabilitation and retraining, and for any of their disabilities and losses.

2.      The Church must surrender for a proper burial, without conditions and at its own expense, the remains of all those who died in its institutions or while under its care.

3.      The Church must return all land and property taken from its victims, andrestore all of the wealth generated by its exploitation of them as children,including the wealth created from their unpaid or low paid labor.

4.      The Church must surrender without conditions all of the evidence of its crimesagainst children, and all of those persons responsible for committing thesecrimes and concealing them, including its highest officials. The Church mustfully disclose this evidence and participate without conditions in all publicinvestigations into its crimes.

5.      The Church and its guilty parties cannot hide behind so-called diplomatic immunity or other privileges to evade justice and avoid prosecution. The Vatican must end its official cover up and annul its policy known as Crimen Sollicitationis, which compels Catholic clergy to conceal crimes committed against children in their parishes.

6.      The Church must immediately expel and defrock all known child raping priests, officials and employees in its ranks, and defrock any clergy who harms a child or conceals such harm.

7.      All clergy and Church officials must agree to be licensed and monitored aspublic servants, and take a legally binding, public oath to protect without conditions the rights and sanctity of children and disclose any harm done to them.

8.      The Church must forego and withdraw from all of the tax exemptions, financial concordats and agreements, and other special privileges presently granted to it under the laws of nations.

9.      The Vatican must agree to the annulment of its status as a so-called state, and free its congregations and dioceses from it's authority so that they may act according to the wishes and needs of their respective communities and their faith, and not the political and financial requirements of the Vatican.

10.   All of the wealth accumulated by the Church and the Vatican Bank through land theft and conquest, and from tax exemptions, concordats, and from its operations around the world that have harmed children through the exploitation of their labor, such as the Magdalene Laundries and Indian residential schools, must be returned to its victims and to the poor in general through a direct, public redistribution of that wealth, as Christ himself commands.

We have been instructed to inform the Bishops of Ireland, as we have notified the Vatican, that they have until September 15, 2012, to agree to these demands and implement these ten measures.

If they fail to commence to do so by midnight of that date, we will enact the following measures:

1.      The Roman Catholic Church will be formally and forever banished from our communities, and measures will be taken to legally and practically prevent it from operating;

2.      Roman Catholic churches, agencies and offices around the world will be permanently disrupted and occupied as part of an ongoing campaign of non-violent civil disobedience; and

3.      Our International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State will reconvene its court, and will seek the immediate detaining for questioning of the highest officials of your Roman Catholic Church, including Pope Benedict, on charges of obstruction of justice, criminal conspiracy, and crimes against humanity.

It is time for all people of conscience within the Church to choose who they will serve: a self-governing, criminal church system that sets itself above the law and God –or its suffering victims, and justice.

We urge Catholics to choose life, by making these ten steps a reality. Otherwise, the Roman Catholic Church will have forfeited its right to operate in our communities and in our world.

By this declaration, we are lending our active support to the Irish survivors of rape and torture by the Roman Catholic Church who are meeting with Archbishop Martin today. These survivors include members of ACCAW, the ITCCS, and Magdalene laundry victims.

We stand as a united front with these brothers and sisters, and with all victims of Church terror anywhere in the world. We will never stop until justice is achieved, and the reign of terror against children everywhere is ended.

We will be sharing this letter with our affiliates around the world, as well as with the global media, judicial bodies,and governments.

We welcome a forma lresponse from the office of Archbishop Martin, and we call upon the Church to accept the demands and wishes of the Irish survivors who are meeting today with Archbishop Martin.

Signed on behalf of The Executive Council of The International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State
