>>>>Delray Beach ยท Greeted by police set to arrest him on grand theft charges at Palm Beach International Airport last month, the Rev. John Skehan "blurted out that he had misappropriated money" from St. Vincent Ferrer Catholic Church, a search warrant released Friday shows.
Skehan admitted several times that he misdirected money from the church, but told investigators he saw himself as the CEO of a multimillion-dollar company who wasn't properly compensated, the warrant shows.<<<<

He has the same lawyer Mark Foley does. (Congressman Foley and the retired pastor are both from the diocese of Palm Beach, as am I.)

Re: S. Florida priest explains why he stole millions from Church: he had it comin'!
Wed, October 11, 2006 - 8:49 PMThe priest from my sister's Catholic church in NJ also stole a huge amount of cash. I guess these guys feel they have it comin' since they had to give up a lifetime of sex for their flock. they may be right............... -

Thu, October 12, 2006 - 11:01 AMI don't think they see it as payment for giving up sex but as compensation fitting an executive. They're wrong to steal, but they're right about how little they are paid to oversee so much money and property. -

Tue, October 17, 2006 - 12:57 PMDo you think if I went into the confessional and said 'Man, I work long hours and my pay is crap, so I've been taking $200 from the till each night' they would smile and say 'Righteous, Dude...'?

Tue, October 17, 2006 - 1:34 PMNo, no way. I don't think it's okay for them to steal at all. I think that's how they rationalize it, that's all.
