KILLALOE

FROM ME TO ARNIE

16.10.22. 6.13 pm

Fr Arnold Rosney PP VF Shannon

Dear Arnie,

I have been contacted by several of your parishioners.

Is it true that you had an affair with a woman who is now reconciled with her husband and moved to Dubai?

Is it true that you are now involved with a new woman?

Is Fintan aware of all this?

+ Pat Buckley

FROM ME TO FINTAN

18.10.22. 12:18 pm

Dear Fintan,

I have received representations from the parish of Shannon informing me that Fr Arnold Rosney:

1. Had a relationship with a married woman that led to the breakdown of her marriage.

Apparently that woman is now reconciled with her husband and they now reside in Dubai.

2. That Fr Rosney is now in a second relationship with another woman.

These matters suggest a pattern in Killaloe – a pattern that you tolerate and preside over.

Maybe more time at your desk and less time running around making amateur movies?

+ Pat

FROM ME TO ARNIE

16.10.22. 19.59 pm

Arnie,

I intend to blog about your situation.

I am giving you the opportunity to deny or comment

+ Pat Buckley

FROM ARNIE AND FINTAN

PAT SAYS

If anyone wrote to me asking me if I had done something wrong I would not ignore the letter / email.

After all. This is someone giving me the opportunity to DENY the assertions.

If what they were asking was untrue I would deny the assertions vigorously and threaten legal action

I would not be threatening legal action simply as a ruse. I would mean it.

I personally have taken a number of legal actions down the years – and I have succeeded in each – once in court and twice by way of an apology and damages.

Of course, TRUTH, is the PERFECT DEFENCE to libel.

I really wish Fintan would clarify these matters, especially for the sake of the Catholic laity of Killaloe.

THE FR AIDAN MC CANN – ARMAGH – TRIAL?

Any news from Friday’s Court case in which Mc Cann faced voyeurism charges?

177 replies on “KILLALOE”

Fr Aidan McCann
If this were the case it would not have called on the charges sheet for Craigavon Magistrates Court on Friday.
If you are in Northern Ireland you can request the Court link if you are interested in the case.
The case is continued to trial for Aidan Patrick McCann.

The case was probably just adjourned. Most of the day in magistrate’s courts is taken up with adjourning cases, for a variety of reasons. Most of the cases that are heard on the day are simple motoring offences or bail breaches.
These courts usually only have 1-2 contests a day (ie cases where the prosecution and defence argue out the case in front of the district judge in the sort of exchanges you see in court room dramas on the telly). Aidan will probably be back in court in six weeks’ time.

Like

@10.06, Thank you, I live and I learn.
@11.08, it is like that in the Republic too. Hence why it is significant that the prosecutor was willing to take the case all the way to a chock-a-block Court schedule. The evidence must be compelling.

Like

You’re right, HG. Cases usually only end up in the magistrate’s court where the person is bang to rights eg no car insurance, speeding. Where the evidence is shaky or likely to be contested (eg assault, theft) the public prosecutors will usually only take it to court if there is strong evidence, to keep costs down and the wheels of justice turning. The conviction rate in the magistrate’s court is high, mainly because prosecutors only bring cases that are strong from the prosecution point of view.
I worked in Newtownards Court, where a district judge (the newish fancy title for the RMs of old) would dispose of 70-80 cases a day, spending only a couple of minutes on each, and then they did an hour or two on the contests. The system is badly clogged up with adjournments. It is very frustrating for everyone involved and hard on witnesses who psych themselves up only to be told to come back on another date.

So this is where those without sin hang out, those who are entitled to cast the first stone. I have had the pleasure of knowing Fr Arnie for many years. I have encountered him in some difficult and challenging situations in my life. I have always found him to be supportive, caring and helpful. Going beyond what was required of his priestly ministry. We should be praying for and supporting all our priests. Not condemning or judging them. We will all have to face the judgment seat some day.
