Just so you have the facts straight, Sr. Barbara Markey did not plead guilty to “embezzling more than $250,000 from the Omaha archdiocese.” According to court papers, she plead guilty to, and was convicted of, “theft by the unauthorized use of funds (in excess of $1,500) owned by the Catholic Archbishop of Omaha, Inc., and FOCCUS, Inc. In fact, the police only investigated an unaccounted amount of $6,000. Sr. Barbara could have accounted also for this amount but since it involved the well-being of someone else she chose not to do so. When newspapers reported that she “stole” large sums of money, the IRS initiated an audit of Sr. Barbara. The IRS thoroughly examined every facet of Sr. Barbara’s finances and in late July concluded that she had no unreported income. Her tax returns were accurate and complete and did not reflect any unlawful taking of any funds owned by the Archdiocese.

What’s up with that priest? Is this an affair gone wrong?

Call me cynical but that’s suspicious.

I have to admit that there were times in my days in Catholic schools that I prayed that a one of my nuns would be sent to prison. Of course, my prayers were not answered. For good reason I guess. Are plea bargains beginning to be a tool used by the prosecutors to get easy information, maybe knowing that the judge will not go along with the sentencing recommendations? When you have suspect prosecutors and political judges, the deck is stacked. Good luck to Sister Barbara. At age 73 and heading to prison, she will need it.
