A gay escort duped into thinking a simple parish priest was a high-powered judge pulls the curtain back on the seedy world of priests who pay for sex. ROME—Father Luca Morini did not practice what he preached. In fact, the Catholic priest apparently did a lot more than preaching at the two parishes he led in rural Tuscany where he earned the nickname “Don Euro” and where he now faces charges for fraud, embezzlement, drug dealing, extortion, and money laundering. His impropriety was first exposed after a male escort named Francesco Mangiacapra discovered that the consensual sex-for-hire relationship he had with Morini, who he thought was a high-powered judge, was not quite what it seemed. Mangiacapra, who trained as a lawyer but who apparently found the male-escort business more profitable, had made the discovery quite by chance, when he recognized his high-dollar client in priest garb. Advertisement He says he then began to wonder how a simple priest could afford such expensive dinners and gifts as his favorite client bestowed on him. A devout Catholic himself, Mangiacapra says he was worried that Father Morini was dipping into the collection plate and duly reported his suspicions to the diocese of Massa Carrara-Pontremoli in Tuscany. But only after a local investigative television show caught Morini snorting cocaine, lounging at a gay spa, and kissing other gay men did they suspend him due to an undisclosed illness, according to several conservative Catholic websites. He was then reportedly tucked away inside a private villa for rehabilitation and is not attending his own criminal trial. The experience with the double-life priest was not isolated, and Mangiacapra soon learned that most of his clients who were friends of the priest were also members of the clergy, and that he’d somehow found himself quite unexpectedly the favorite boy toy in a gay-priest sex ring. He did what any self-serving male prostitute might do and started researching a book about it called Il Numero Uno. Confessioni di un Marchettaro (The Number One. Confessions of a Prostitute) based on WhatsApp messages, screenshots, and videos of various priests in compromising positions. But the church, it seemed, didn’t pay much attention to the book, which was published last March, so Mangiacapra brought it to the attention of various high-ranking cardinals by compiling his raw research into a 1,200-page dossier focused on nearly 40 priests across Italy that he took to the archdiocese of Naples, led by Cardinal Cresenzio Sepe, who decided to act and sent the dossier straight to the Vatican. Sepe told Corriere della Sera that Naples “didn’t enter into it” and that none of the gay priests were Neapolitan. “Our diocese was used like a post office,” he said. “We just delivered the message to Rome.” The Italian equivalent of Drudge Report, Dagospia, was allegedly able to see some of the dossier from which it published various excerpts, including screenshots of messages. Several show what appear to be “dick pics” of priests with messages about where and how they wanted to have sex with each other and the escorts. In one, an apparent priest invites the escort along to an ordination, after which they would have sex nearby. The message ends with “see you later, I’ll tell you when the mass is.” Mangiacapra says he means no harm to the church. “I want to explain right away that mine is not a gesture that goes against the Catholic Church, indeed, it is paradoxically in its favor,” he said in an interview with Catania Today, which also published a screenshot of an exchange in which one priest sent him a naked picture in front of the bell and asked if he liked his penis. Poster Comment: As a practicing TRADITIONAL Catholic this makes one's stomach turn. However, I know full well that today's Bergoglio Catholic Church represents an entirely new religion that has little to do with the Holy Trinity and much to do with secular humanism's 'if it feels good...do it!.' Jesus Christ left a church behind that was to endure but over the centuries it eroded. The erosion sped up subsequent to the evil Vatican II and the popes who followed that dark assembly continued to stoke the coals of destruction. Hell will be filled with those phony clergy that dared to wear the collar and lead a life of sin and debauchery.

Ding a ling ping
LOL I stopped reading there. Surely you didn't want those priests to habitually sodomize some heathen manwhore of possibly foreign extraction?
Author: Barbie Latza Nadeau Is that one of those sex-change prots? Pretty disgusting stuff there.
You are a funny little faggot!
Liberals are like Slinkys. They're good for nothing, but somehow they bring a smile to your face as you shove them down the stairs.
a funny little faggot! Carry on with your idol worship. Vat II was the turn for the worse. At least I have the good sense to be a lapsed Catholic. Lapsed and Traditional are the two categories until this either rolls over and the New Church radically reverts to the old ways, or the the World sees the Second or we pass on and await. It'll happen. We just don't know when.
