One year later: A look back at the Diocese of Reno's Fr. Patrick Klekas debacle

May 18, 2024 note:

This podcast episode is an edited version of the original episode that I published on May 13, 2024. After consideration, I have decided to delete two sections of the original audio and reupload the episode with those sections omitted. The edited recording will play a message saying "This section of audio has been redacted" to indicate where sections were edited out.

One deleted section contains a mention of rumors about the current activities of Patrick Klekas as a private citizen. Upon further reflection, I decided that it was inappropriate for me to publish such material, since these rumors were not collaborated and are irrelevant to my mission to expose clergy abuse as Mr. Klekas is no longer an active member of the priesthood. Another deleted section contains uncharitable remarks about the Diocese of Reno's Bishop Daniel Mueggenborg.

I apologize to both Mr. Klekas and Bishop Mueggenborg for my being imprudent with my commentary in the original version of the podcast episode.

Podcast preview:

When Fr. Patrick Klekas admitted to targeting a married woman parishioner for sex, the Diocese of Reno placed him on a short leave of absence and then tried putting him back into ministry. We stopped them. Listen to the episode to hear how we did it.
