Introduction
2002 was the year when the media gave print space and
air time to those who suffered at the hands of predatory
priests. It quickly became the year when Donald Wuerl
succeeded in stealing the spotlight from those preyed-
upon individuals, as if their pangs were inconsequential.
Someone succeeded in getting certain media entities to
focus on Wuerl in adulation, regarding him as one of the
"one of the good guys."
However ...
News articles which praised Wuerl, such as those published
in the LA Times and New York Times, failed to mention that
he was the bishop caught performing a triple cover-up involv-
ing molester priests who even performed sadistic acts upon
two under-aged males.
Incidentally, if Donald Wuerl's Triple Cover-up is news to
you, as it may be, you can learn of it by clicking on the link
posted directly below here:

In addition, articles and news reports that praised Wuerl as
the absolute answer to churchmen in America also failed to
mention the subsequent arrest of a fourth priest whom Wuerl
sent to Saint Louis, then kept in Pittsburgh diocesan living
quarters, and sent back to Saint Louis, all the while knowing
of the allegations against that priest.
In the Year 2002, while Wuerl was being praised as a great
bishop, a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari was filed at the
United States Supreme Court against Wuerl's diocese, con-
cerning of one of Wuerl's former personal secretaries, as
well as Wuerl himself.
In addition, there were "several priests" who were long since
accused of abuse, but were none the less kept in active min-
istry by Wuerl, until after the start of the media explosion
that detailed hierarchical cover ups. That is to say, when the
Year 2002 came into being, neither Wuerl, nor his diocesan
spokesman, nor his many attorneys could truthfully claim
that there was no priest in active ministry in the Diocese of
Pittsburgh who had been accused of molestation.
Wuerl was installed as the Roman Catholic archbishop of
Washington, D.C. on June 22, 2006. Prior to that date, he
spent 18 years as the bishop of Pittsburgh. The following
subject matter, therefore, concerns Wuerl's days as the
bishop of Pittsburgh.
The Names of the Ill-treated are Withheld
The names of persons ill-treated by the diocese that the
blatantly narcissistic and evidently ruthless Donald Wuerl
ruled for 18 years do not appear on either one of the two
church corruption pages.

Credibility
The credibility of the following subject matter is anchored to
numerous pieces of evidentiary support. The evidence in-
cludes the tape recording of a harassment entirely provoked
by Wuerl's personnel, if not Wuerl himself, in an act of eco-
nomic retaliation. Such a recording is permissible under the
federal statute found in USC 18, Ch. 119, Sec. 2511(2)(d).
The evidentiary support also includes numerous pieces of per-
sonal mail, along with a number of postmarked envelopes. In
fact, a couple of the envelopes carry the return address label
of the official residence that Donald Wuerl possessed from
1988 to 2006.
An additional piece of evidence is the witness account found
on a police department's Citizen's Report Form. It was hand-
written by an unaffiliated third party. There are other pieces
of evidence, as well.

to Wuerl's Cover-up of his Secretary
Timeline
The actions of Donald Wuerl's former secretary occurred from
1990 to the middle of 1997. Some of the priest's homosexual
antics took place in Wuerl's own residence.
The predatory conduct actually didn't end until one final ploy
was committed during the 1997-1998 Christmas season. And
as far as concerns the retaliatory conduct, it occurred in 1998
and 1999.
In 1998, when the homosexual priest was reported, he was
the president of one of the Pittsburgh diocesan high schools.
He was appointed to that school by Donald Wuerl in 1996.
The Priest Approached his Prey First
Concerning the young man targeted by Wuerl's former secre-
tary, he was first approached by the homosexual priest on the
steps of a church, when the young man was still a teenager.
The priest presented himself as an undefined type of sociology
researcher. He told the teenager whom he approached that he
was seeking to learn what draws young people to church. The
bottom line is that the young man did not approach the priest
first.
An Outline of the Priest's Conduct
The priest's conduct consisted in a physical form of sexual
harassment, accompanied by a misrepresentation as fraudu-
lent as a wolf in sheperd's clothing. It consisted in the priest
preying on a situation that will not be detailed herein, and it
involved the modus operandi reported by the 2002 media as
the one commonly used by predatory priests.
A Diplomatic Way of Describing it
There are forms of sexual harassment that consist in episodes
of prolonged one-way contact that repeatedly result in the ha-
rassed person either diplomatically pushing away the harasser
or moving away from him. Sexual harassment is not limited
to verbal aggression. That is to say, there are forms of sexual
harassment where a priest does not keep his hands to himself.
Predatory cases are sometimes accompanied by the pretense
of spiritual direction, where the aggression is disguised be-
hind authoritarian voice patterns. Those cases do not involve
gullible prey. Rather, they involve a priest's badgering of his
intended target, for the purpose of acheiving physical contact.
They involve a priest abusing his power and influence, in cre-
ating the illusion that he is speaking in the name of God and
the Church, when he is doing nothing more than orchestrat-
ing an intrusion. The authoritarian pretense is only the first
stage of the ploy.
That which Constitutes Predatory
Conduct and Abusive Acts
It is not required for a cleric to be a serial rapist, in order for
him to constitute a predatory priest. He simply has to engage
in the conduct that consists in him targeting a selected individ-
dual and then manipulating ways to physically intrude on the
the targeted prey in as severe a degree as he can, in his quest
to consummate his lusts. It consists in a priest using another
person as "an object of sexual gratification."
Donald Wuerl's Sought-for Definition of Sexual Abuse
The Pittsburgh Post Gazette reported on October 27, 2002
that Wuerl "fought for the broad meaning of sexual
abuse." The same thing was reported in slightly more detail,
on May 29, 2003. In as much, pursuant to Wuerl's sought-for
definition, the acts of his former personal secretary constituted
sexual abuse.
Predatorship Includes Taking Advantage of
Persons who Underwent Nightmaric Tragedy
A predatory priest can easily prey upon a traumatized person,
by presenting himself as an intervening lifesaver, when in fact,
he is nothing more than a disingenuous wolf. This constitutes
the abuse of an impaired person, being that a traumatized
state is a state of impairment.
If the priest is told about a volatile home environment, he can
one day use knowledge of it against his victim, in manipulat-
ing the more violent persons in that environment to attack his
prey for him. It consists in the priest using knowledge that
was confidentially entrusted to him by his victim, in order to
bring additional harm to that same victim. That is to say, it
consists in the betrayal of trust.
The Personal Mail is the Tale of the Tape
Several pieces of the previously mentioned mail sufficiently
constitute the tale of the tape. They erase any doubt as to the
motives, mindset, emotionality, and psychosexual orientation
of Wuerl's former personal secretary. They also prove that
the former secretary was well aware that his targeted prey
was suffering greatly in his personal life.
The Former Personal Secretary's Whereabouts
At the time of this writing, Donald Wuerl's former personal
secretary is in active ministry. He is the pastor of a parish in
Carrick, Pennsylvania, despite the fact that his retaliatory con-
duct, alone, proved him to be a danger to others. And Donald
Wuerl, in having let the retaliations cause jeopardy & achieve
damaging effects, proved himself to be a far greater danger to
others. It was equivalent to having reported a fire to the fire
marshal, only to see shortly thereafter, the arrival of dutiful
personnel armed with flame throwers.
The Office of Priestly Formation, formerly called
the Office of the Training for the Priesthood
Donald Wuerl has been a major figure in a department called
"the Office of Priestly Formation." In other lands and at oth-
er times it has been known as the Office of the Training for
the Priesthood.
The title, "priestly formation," is an embarassingly gay sound-
ing title which gives the impression that seminarians are
being fitted into a stylish, cosmetized, and elitist motiff. That
is to say, the title, "priestly formation" does not inspire images
of naturally inclined men training for positions of service to
God and mankind.
It is furthermore acknowledged that the Church in America
was plagued with unnaturally inclined seminarians and priests,
as well as active sodomites, during the years when Wuerl was
a major contributor to the office of "priestly formation."
Now, Wuerl was installed at the Pittsburgh diocese on Febru-
ary 12, 1988, and his former personal secretary was ordained
on July 1, 1989. This means that the predator-to-be was or-
dained under Donald Wuerl's watch. The predatory priest,
therefore, is a sample of Wuerl's version of "priestly forming."
Rewarded with a National Executive Position
in the Office of "Priestly Formation"
The priest in charge of investigating Wuerl's former secretary
(in 1998) became the Executive Director of the Secretariat for
Vocations & Priestly Formation, at the headquarters of the
United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, in 1999. He is
a Pittsburgh diocesan priest who was named a Chaplain to
Pope Benedict XVI, on June 29, 2006. In 2009, he was ap-
pointed to be the Bishop of Anchorage Alaska. Whenever we
sent communiqués to either his office or to Wuerl's office, a
new harassment or an ensuing retaliation would immediately
follow.
The Tally Sheet, Stated for the Record
The scorecard goes as follows: One person was the target
of the priest's homosexual aggression. A second person saw
to it that the priest would be reported. And three persons got
caught in the middle of the first wave of retaliatory conduct.
Two persons then got caught in the second wave. In the pro-
cess, a big bad wolf of collective resources eventually blew
down three houses.
Of the three persons caught in the retaliations, one now lives
in the deep south of the United States, one moved to an
American state west of the one where the retaliatory dio-
cese is located, and the other person is located elsewhere.
Lower & Upper Respiratory Disease Is Involved
One of the three individuals caught in the diocese's retal-
iation suffers from asthma, central sleep apnea (where all
breathing ceases during sleep), and an upper-respiratory
disease. The objective medical findings entered into his
medical records have included:
1] increased AP diameter
(This is the barrel chest common in
advanced cases of emphysema and
in cases of chronic asthma.)
2] turbinate swelling
3] bilateral wheezing
4] prolonged expiratory phase
5] upper respiratory erythema (redness)
6] exorbitant provocation test results,
7] objective skin whealing
(during placebo-controlled skin testing,
while testing negative for the placebo.)
Additional evidentiary support includes the signed & nota-
rized lay witness testimony of persons who witnessed him
ill. The word, "choking" was used in more than one wit-
ness account that was accepted as evidence in his disability
case. He was adjudicated as having a full & severe physical
disability.
The disability has included numerous occasions of profuse
dry heaving that even resulted in cringing chest and bicep
pain. There have also been numerous occasions of head-
aches so severe that the temples and cheekbones would feel
bruised even the day after a headache subsided.
The pertinence in mentioning this is that the following ac-
count illustrates the ruthless indifference of Donald Wuerl
and his personnel toward the physically impaired.
A Civil Action
Legal action was taken, and the events related to the following
account were made known to three levels of the United States
judiciary. This included the level of the U.S. Supreme Court,
in a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari and three supplemental
briefs. The Supreme Court documents were filed in forma
pauperis by a clerk of court there in 2002. The lawsuit was
filed Pro Se in district court during the Year 2000.
Filing Pro Se means to file without an attorney. Being ad-
mitted to a court in forma pauperis means that you were too
poor to pay the filing fee.
Ever-so-coincidentally, as soon as the lawsuit was filed, all
harassments and retaliatory conduct ceased. However, the
diversionary press release tactics resumed, along with their
slight-of-hand deceptions. Needless to say, the coverup
remained on course.
The Supreme Court docket number was 01-10392.
The Citation number is 537 U.S. 843, dated October 7, 2002.
To whom it might one day come to concern, it is requested
that you omit the name of the primary petitioner, being that
he has already suffered more than enough in life, already.
He is the one whose name appears first on the docket sheets.
The Pointless Venue of Last Recourse
The civil court system was the venue of last recourse, being
that church officials would neither respond in writing nor
respond by verbal communication to a single item sent to
them after March 1998. This included correspondence sent
to officials in Washington, DC and in Vatican City. Yet, it
was promised to me during March 1998, directly to my face,
that someone would get back to me. However, there is a
huge difference between getting back to someone and get-
ting back at someone.
The Cardinal Refused to Help
Even when communications were sent to church authorities
by third parties, there would still be no response, except in
one instance. In that instance, a cardinal responded to a
New Jersey woman who wrote to him about Wuerl and his
former personal secretary. The only message that she sent
me, concerning the cardinal, was that, "He said that he will
not help you." She also stated that he was a "very promi-
nent cardinal at the Vatican."
The woman's first name, by the way, was Monica. Her motive,
in reporting Wuerl, was to make sure that he would not be
appointed archbishop of New York. She really couldn't care
any less than she already did, about the victims of the 1998
and 1999 Pittsburgh Diocesan retaliations.
The Papal Nuncio Played "Pass the Buck"
During the first wave of retaliatory conduct (in 1998), a phone
call was placed to the Papal Nuncio in Washington. He simply
said that he would contact the Bishop of Pittsburgh about the
matter, assuring me that the bishop, alone, would take care
things. Wuerl did nothing but let the course of events stay on
course.
The Federal Court Case's Added Feature
The case also included the issue of clerics committing the sin
of cowardice when confronted with the moral obligation to
speak out against certain institutionalized sins, in fear of loos-
ing tax exempt status and/or taxpayer-funded income, as well
as other government benefits and the government's favor in
general. This involves those sins to which Catholics give their
cooperation at the workplace & in the marketplace.
That feature of the lawsuit concerned Donald Wuerl refusing
to grant either an aposolate or "a church-approved initiative"
dedicated to ending the Catholic Faithful's cooperation with
social sin, with the assistance of the vastly resourced Catholic
Church. Getting no assistance from one's bishop, in matters
of salvation, is a violation of one's religious rights.
My allegation was that, in Donald Wuerl's fear of loosing tax-
exempt status and/or government funding, he blocked my right
to observe my religious duties. Therefore, under to the Federal
doctrine of "Compulsion," Wuerl blocked my rights under the
color of law. Part 2 covers this matter.
And stated for the record, in recent days past, an "apostolate"
was known as a Catholic Action Guild.
LBJ'S Legacy was Partly Involved
The aforementioned feature of the lawsuit concerned, in part,
a law that LBJ got passed, when he was a senator. That law
concerns the way in which a religion can loose its tax exempt
status.
LBJ, incidentally, stands for Lyndon Baines Johnson, the Viet-
nam War president who did not run for re-election. And the
aforementioned law was a ploy of LBJ, in his effort to beat
his political opponent, Dudley Dougherty, in the 1954 Texas
Senatorial election. You see, Mr. Dougherty was receiving
pivotal & open support from certain religious entities until the
law that LBJ introduced on the senate floor was enacted. LBJ
then won the 1954 election.
Proof that it was a Determinant in
Wuerl's Decision Making Process
There is evidence that the fear of loosing tax-exempt status
and taxpayer-funded program participation has been a factor
in Donald Wuerl's decision making process. It is found in a
public statement that he once issued. Wuerl once stated that
he will not deny holy communion to any influential politician
committed to the proliferation of a certain mortal sin, because,
according to Wuerl, denying holy communion to such a politi-
cian could have "national ramifications." And of course, this
apparently refers to the Catholic Church's tax-exempt status,
as well as to its taxpayer-funded operations.
Religions and taxpayer-funded Income
Religions in America can acquire ample amounts of taxpayer
dollars via government-contracted social services, government-
sponsored medical plans, government-funded tuition financing,
and the such. A religion can even receive free food from a
state's Cooperative Extension Society. Therefore, that which
Donald Wuerl's personnel called "Charities" were actually tax-
payer-funded programs which gained for Catholic institutions
income. Getting payed for activities called charities negates
the meaning of charity, especially when it is funded by tax-
payers who get no credit for their contributions.
Wuerl's Cooperation, Concerning
a Specific Crime Against Humanity
The lawsuit also involved Donald Wuerl's cooperation in a
crime against humanity which involves Sweatshop Labor
Profiteering and other types of Slave Labor Profiteering.
This additionally involves those types of labor that have
been imposed upon foreign child workers in recent years.
This complicity, therefore, envelops Donald Wuerl like an
aura of razor wire.
As a reminder, when imported slave labor merchandise reaches
your home, your place of work, and your person, then you are
involved. You are involved much the same way as is a person
who receives stolen property. But, in this case, it is more than
a matter of stolen property. It is a matter of stolen lives, wasted
away in the burden of going through life without a livable wage.
You are also involved in this crime if you work for an employer
engaged in this practice. You are even involved if you invest
in a corporation that profits from this practice.
This Cooperation is Attached to a Blatant Contradiction
The great contradiction about Donald Wuerl is that he is her-
alded as a protector of children, yet he has been indifferent
toward a corporate crime that victimizes children much more
frequently than does the predatorship of priests who should
never have been ordained in the first place.
This Cooperation Started to Backfire
on Wuerl, in a Congressional Near-Hit
This is addressed in the following page. In addition, there
is yet another social sin about which Wuerl has been en-
tirely silent. It, too, is covered on the following webpage.
EWTN on the Topic of Donald Wuerl
A letter signed by the president of the EWTN Global Catholic
Network, dated January 28, 1999 and appearing on stationery
marked with the EWTN logo, stated the following about Don-
ald Wuerl:
"EWTN is reasonably familiar with the information
that you sent." ...
"I am not in a position to make further statements
regarding the material you sent except to say that
all of it has been duly noted." ...
"We do pray day and night that all bishops will be
in union with the Holy Father. We realize that
there are those who, by both work and action,
do not seem to be in union with the Holy Father."
Malachi Martin on the Topic of Donald Wuerl
Best-selling author, Malachi Martin, called Donald Wuerl
a fool who will one day "have to answer to God for all the
sins he has allowed." Father Malachi also said, "He is not
Catholic. He is just not Catholic." In fact, during a radio
talk show Malachi said, "I'll have you know that the Dio-
cese of Pittsburgh is one of the most pathetic dioceses
in the United States." Therefore, if you ever hear Donald
Wuerl's propaganda machine assassinate the character
of the late Malachi Martin, then you will know why.
Concerning the late Malachi Martin's ability to assess situa-
tions, he correctly prognosticated that Albino Luciano would
succeed Pope Paul VI to the Chair of Saint Peter. This was
published in a German newspaper shortly before the 1978
papal election. Father Malachi had a circuitry of insider
information for years.
Blatant Narcissism and/or Vanity
Wuerl's true height is mentioned somewhere in these texts,
because of his apparent obsession with having to look tall
in photographs and on film. That is to say, his vanity is
deafening. In as much, if you have read that Donald Wuerl
was/is an aesthetic 5'10" or 5'11", know that he has long
since been a non-athletic 5'3", 5'4", 5'5" or so - throughout
the plurality of decades. He resembled neither a Thomas
Merton, nor a Louis of Montfort, nor a Bruce Lee. Wuerl
has not been an imposing figure in his life, yet the press
made him look like a knight. That type of propaganda is
guaranteed is to backfire, however. For example ...
After a certain diocesan lecteur saw Wuerl for the first time,
he drove to my place of work (at the time) and told me that
he was initially shocked to find that Wuerl was nothing more
than "scrawny." The bottom line is that the media has been
Wuerl's puppet entourage, used to cast an illusion upon the
people. This is pertinent in that, if you spread deceptions
about yourself, then you will spread lies about other things,
including the topic of faith and morals.
Economic Results
The individual who saw to it that Wuerl's former secretary
would be reported had an R1 credit rating (the highest) at
the start of December 1997. And his credit card debt was
only $300. Yet, shortly after the diocesan retaliations of
1998, his credit card debt had risen to $8,900. Things
turned more tragic, and as time progressed, he was
forced into bankruptcy court.
The End of Events
This series of events finally ended in a 3 degree Celsius
night of snowfall, as the individual who saw to the re-
porting of Wuerl's former secretary was left to sleep in
a borrowed pick-up that had to be returned the follow-
ing day. Within two weeks, he was given a means of
transportation to the deep south, along with lodging
when he would get there.
Donald Wuerl would then go on to be praised on Pitts-
burgh television as a "holy, holy, man." He would be
painted as a hero in the LA Times & New York Times.
In fact, Wuerl was made the master of ceremony of a
Pittsburgh parade, having been lauded as a hero. Then,
former Pittsburgh Steeler, L.C. Greenwood, would play
the role of dupe, in publicly encouraging Wuerl to be
patient for the day when he will be appointed cardinal
of the Catholic Church and made an automatic candi-
date for the papacy.
L.C. Greenwood was recruited for the propaganda task,
unknowingly so, because he has yet to be elected into
the NFL Hall of Fame, despite his four Super Bowl rings
and his success as a defensive end. That is to say, Wuerl
was making himself an equal to L.C., in inferring that he
deserves to be a cardinal as much as L.C. deserves to be
in the Hall of Fame.
