Statute of limitations shielding former Rapid City pulpiteer from justice

Bernie v. Blue Cloud Abbey was one of several cases that ended up before the South Dakota Supreme Court alleging church officials at the time covered up serial sexual abuse taking place at the compound. After helping to broker the sale of the abbey Watertown member of the criminal cult, Lee Schoenbeck, aided by fellow cultist and lobbyist Jeremiah Murphy, forced the perverted South Dakota Legislature to pass laws covering up countless crimes committed by their sect by enacting statutes of limitations.

In South Dakota at least thirty two members of the Church of the Holy Roman Kiddie Diddlers have been credibly accused of preying on children and vulnerable adults but don't expect Joe Boever's killer, Jason Ravnsborg, Attorney General, incel and former altar boy to take on both South Dakota Dioceses. In Sioux Falls cleric Don DeGrood replaced Paul Swain to lord over some of the slush fund that buys silence from Ravnsborg and South Dakota's depraved legislature. 

Part of the international crime syndicate that is the Roman Church, Avera Health is a federally-subsidized hospital operating as an oligopoly funneling money to parishes paying settlements or hush money for the sins of predatory priests paid for by insurers and patients. 

Marcin Garbacz had been bleeding the beast, though. When it was the bishopric of Bob Gruss, Garbacz liberated at least $260,000 from the Rapid City Diocese. Gruss has since been shuffled into the Saginaw, Michigan diocese, itself wracked with abuses committed by pederastic pulpiteers. 

The Roman church has been behind the seizures of hundreds of American Indian children in violation of the Indian Child Welfare Act where Catholic congregations and the state's legislature have engaged in obstruction of justice for decades.

Ireland and Australia are leading calls to prosecute the cult's leaders and as lawsuits and the US Department of Justice swamp the Church of the Holy Roman Kiddie Diddlers the future of the religionist syndicate isn't looking very rosy. 

Like over a dozen other US Roman churches have done the Helena, Montana chapter of the sect faced 362 claims of sexual abuse and filed for bankruptcy. New Mexico Attorney General Hector Balderas has also been investigating predator priests and the Archdiocese of Santa Fe was forced to file for bankruptcy because of the high number of lawsuits. The Wyoming attorney general has decided against charging retired bishop Joseph Hart despite cases brought by the Cheyenne Police Department after victims or their family members came forward. 

Mike Mulloy had been interim sermonizer in Rapid City until August 2019 when the diocese learned he sexually abused a minor in the early 1980s. A 67 year old native of Mobridge, Mulloy was assigned to Rapid City from 1979 to 1981 and in Faith in 1983 with satellite parishes in Red Owl and Plainview then was reassigned to Rapid City. His resignation was accepted by the leader of the Roman Church who is slowly cleaning house of pederastic predators but is taking heat from Republicans for his stance on curbing human-induced climate change and from progressives for his intent to canonize a colonizer accused of raping children. 

Without butts in the pews the Rapid City Diocese even received almost $400,000 in aid from the Trump Organization.

“While the investigation is not closed it is at a point where due to the statute of limitations there is nothing chargeable,” said Tim Bormann, spokesman for the Attorney General’s Office. “Should any new information or allegations be forthcoming that evidence would then be examined.” “The statute of limitations places this matter into a category where it cannot be brought into a court of law, similarly it would not be proper to release any details that would conversely be considered in the court of public opinion,” he said. Mulloy is the third Rapid City-based priest to be accused or convicted of child sexual abuse since 2018. [Rapid City Journal]
