OECUSSE, East Timor -- East Timor abruptly postponed the trial Monday of a defrocked American priest facing allegations he sexually abused young girls at a children’s shelter he ran in a remote enclave in East Timor — one of the most Catholic places on Earth. Soon after Richard Daschbach, a former missionary from Pennsylvania, arrived in the courtroom, judges said they needed more time to make revisions to documents and asked the 84-year-old defendant to return on Tuesday.
The former priest is charged with 14 counts of sexual abuse of children under the age of 14, as well as counts of child pornography and domestic violence, according to the country’s Prosecutor General. The case against Daschbach represents East Timor’s first child sex case brought against a priest, but it has been complicated by his hero status and loyal devotion from followers.An official at the Catholic church in East Timor’s capital, Dili, said Daschbach was defrocked in 2018 after he confessed to the abuses. Former donors also said he admitted it to them, but the ex-priest has not admitted to it publicly.
Both men are wearing their maskes wrong. Over the nose and below the chin, people.

And how many nuns ?
Such a surprise.. NOT
Where do all these freaks come from? I'm going to say this as a suggestion but I think anybody to be a priest and Minister anything else to do with the public a Boy Scout troop leader needs to go psychological testing first. That's the only way we can protect our kids
It is always wrong to judge or view some people that they may be angels because we are often shocked by reality to the contrary..and what is always important remains that a perverted person does not escape justice and punishment, and the deceivers deserve the maximum punishment.
LilyEPloski 84 years old? Put him up for life.
Don't know if he's guilty, but priests should be allowed to get married and have children. Being deprived of basic, normal human behavior and desires leads to dangerous activities. Just my opinion.
God is truth
Scum bag slug.
Shocking...religion again for the win when it comes to disgusting man made bullshit and complete idiots
A de what? Oh frocked!! I thought...uh!😳forget it!!
Cuándo aprenderán padres de familia a no dejar sols a sus hijs con curas/priests si por años se han dado casos de abuso sexual por parte de estos tipos? La iglesia católica está bañada de abuso sexual de menores y autoridades de la iglesia esconden esos actos criminales.
Anyone that hurts a child... Should be eating from a tube for the rest of their lives. Just my opinion.
Alleged. You are a communications company. Proof read, and then proof read again. (I'm available for the right price!)
It was good! Huh, Priest? But you harvest what you plant. You forgot ... Remember ...!
Defund the Church.
