A former Roman Catholic priest was found guilty on Thursday of hiring a hit man to kill a boy who had accused him of sexual abuse.
John Fiala, 53, showed no emotion as a Dallas jury found him guilty of plotting to kill the boy, according to The Dallas Morning News. He faces a possible sentence of life in prison.
Prosecutors said that Fiala had tried to hire at hit man for $5,000 in November 2010, but the would-be assassin turned out to be an undercover police officer. Video and audio of the meeting were presented to the jury on Wednesday.

It's funny, since abandoning my faith I still find myself using phrases associated with religion. When I read the third paragraph in the article I thought "thank god for undercover police officers." Oh the irony.
On another note (and mods, I'm not serous about this, I'm not actually suggesting this) there have been so many threads about abuse in the catholic church it seems like the subject needs it's own subforum.

I have studied the Bible and the theology behind Christianity for many years. I have been to many churches. I have walked the depth and the breadth of the religion and, as a result of this, I have a lot of bullshit to scrape off the bottom of my shoes. ~Ziploc Surprise
I cant help it I'm a Kudos whore. P.S. Jesus is a MYTH.
