Dear Ms. Chadra,

Here is my reply to writer Jeff Ward's article about sex offenders. Mr. Ward's comments show complete anti-Catholic bigotry, but an article that is completely void of facts or completely misused facts.
Thank you,
Vincent Russell

Mr. Ward,
Since you are so good with statistics and claim children are far more likely to be abused by a priest than a stranger, can you tell me of the 123 abusers you list, how many are/were priests? Zero, right? Yes, ZERO, Mr. Ward! Now, list how many are protestant clergy, teachers, computer programmers, plumbers, etc.
The fact that you call out priests and exclude every other occupation shows not only are you a bigoted, anti-Catholic, but you are a poor investigator and writer by misuing facts. Your article should be titled, SEXUAL ABUSE in DUPAGE--LOOK NO FURTHER THAN YOUR OWN DINNER TABLE. In addition, this list is for all sex offenders, not just child sex offenders.
Smearing priests by using biased opinions, not facts, is as anti-Catholic as they come. And you take the cake.

Hey Charlotte, I didn't realize you were from Birmingham! I grew up in Troy!

It is so great! I'm glad you enjoyed yourself. Keep in touch!

Thanks for the Cantigny suggestion. We went there today and were very impressed. We plan on going back tomorrow night for the Veterans' Day program. Wheaton is a great community!

Hey James—this took a while for me to see, but great to meet you too! Thanks so much for the nice note!

Thanks,

Hey Charlotte,

I got my story and picture for today emailed to you.

Hey thanks, Pat--It was such a beautiful race--I want to drive out there just to run that path again soon. Thanks again, hope you had a good time there as well!

Congratulations, Charlotte, and congrats to your mom Linda on running the Fox Valley Marathon in St. Charles on Sunday. It was fitting that it was our inaugural race and you had just launched the Wheaton Patch 2 days before!

Charlotte,

I emailed my library story and pics to your Patch email. I didn't know how to post.
