Time to remove the cloak of protection from the priests: You do the crime, you do the time. This ecclesiastical protection is what attracts pedophiles to the priesthood.

"A former priest at a Maryland church is behind bars after police report he was making child pornography involving underage boys.61-year-old Fernando Cristancho served as a priest from 1999 to 2002 at St. Ignatius Church in Harford County."

Maybe the Washington DC Vatican envoy accused of among other things, distributing child porn was in contact with this one? And this ex Maryland priest was relieved of his ministry (but not kicked out of the church) because he:

Removed 1997 for sexual misconduct with young woman (not a minor) in Arlington diocese. Cristancho arranged in vitro fertilization of woman in Colombia using his sperm. Triplets born in 11/01 (2 boys, 1 girl). Baltimore archdiocese learned about the children and fired Cristancho from parish in 7/02. Privileges removed 2004. In 2006 DSS found sexual abuse of both boys, including oral sex. Mother reported possible 3rd victim. Maryland Appeals court gave custody to mother in 10/08. Cristancho denies abuse . http://www.bishop-accountability.org/priestdb/PriestDBbylastName-C.html

Maryland is a pedophile-friendly state," said Frank Dingle, of Catonsville, a member of the survivors group. "The bishops' and Pope's words have an impact, but if the bishops took action it would have even more of an impact. More needs to be done." http://www.bishop-accountability.org/news2008/11_12/2008_11_12_DailyTimes_MarylandTwo.htm

Doesn't look like he did any time for the child abuse. Maybe now they'll yank his passport before he flees to Columbia. http://www.bishop-accountability.org/news2008/11_12/2008_11_09_SNAP_StatementBy.htm
