But they do arrest people on the basis of an affidavit whether there is supporting evidence is another matter.

Yes, and perhaps that would account for the delay in making an arrest in this case. The man deserves his day in court. But if he’s found guilty, both he and the Catholic Church should pay up. This $hit with some priests has gone on for all of my more than 78 years, so it seems that it’s long past time for some real action to stop it. The Clergy, Lawyers and The Press, have special legal dispensations, so when they are found guilty, the penalties should be severe.
