Originally posted by DoctorScribblesOK, i'm going to say Delvin has been sued and the others have been accused.

I didn't know there were that many priest in this country let alone that many accused of sexual abuse.
Will the real Chester the Molester please stand up?
Which of these Chesters has been sued in court, and which have been merely accused?
Father Chester Devlin
Father Chester Gawronski
Father Chester Misercola
For extra credit, comment on the wisdom of the Church ordaining a person named Chester.
Professor, I also found another interesting name among the accused. His name was Decock. Does this name have a Dutch root? I know you have been working hard as of late on learning this intriguing language.

Ah, Father DeCock, a gentleman and a scholar, accused of "sexual abuse with a male minor."

That name very well could be Dutch, although I haven't come across it in my studies so far.
When you were in seminary, there weren't any students named Chester, were there?
Originally posted by DoctorScribblesYou're not going to believe this, but I swear this is a true story. I did not know any Chesters in seminary. However, in my first ministry assignment I came across a man dying of cancer whose name was Chester. He had a nurse with really big titties. One day while she was checking his blood pressure or something like that he reached up and grabbed her boobs. He immediately disolved into tears of guilt. His nurse had the damn sense not to shame him for this which I always appreciated in her. Chester was a fine outstanding church-going man. He just loved titties like the rest of us. May he rest in peace.

Originally posted by DoctorScribblesI've got another one if you're up fo it. I had this young woman who was dying of AIDS. She used to be a stripper. She was kind of a prodigal daughter. Showed up on her parents doorstep after being gone for years. They graciously took her in and cared for her without judgment.

This lady had a homemade quilt on her bed that I really didn't pay very close attention to, but upon further inspection, it was made up of many panels that were stitched outlines of her in various sexual positions. Not your grandmother's quilt, but I always respected this affluent family that lived in a very upscale neighborhood for allowing her to be comforted by her homemade quilt all the way to the end of her life.

Funny thing about D.A. Conte is that he has been donating a number of campaign funds to the Worchester dioceses.

Chester Gawbronski ... accused and removed. Not sued.

Chester Misercola ... accused but not sued.

My tiny investigation "says" neither of them have been sued. But Chester Devlins case was dropped because of Statute of limitations. Therefore my answer to the question is that Chester Devlin is the real "Chester the Molester".
