McCarrick still doesn’t confess
Ruth Graham secured a world exclusive with her interview with former cardinal Theodore McCarrick for Slate.
Much of her piece explored the problem of what the Church should do with a disgraced prelate, and where to put him out of the public eye: he lives for the foreseeable future in a small Capuchin friary in the prairie town of Victoria, Kansas.
When she finally met Mr McCarrick – he was laicised in February – she found “a small man with a deeply hunched back” who “walked slowly down the wooden staircase” of the friary.
