    Seeing as the DCI in charge said "Police suspect the case might be connected to a serious assault on a priest in St Patrick's Church" it's a distinct possibility.

    apparently the priest was asked to hear the confession of the lad who attacked him


    don’t think you need to be a Sherlock Holmesto figure this one out.

    Even if the sanctity of the confessional will prevent the priest from saying anything that was said under the act, Somehow I doubt the psni will have too much work cut out for them to figure it out.

    As n aside, this case is not in the Irish jurisdiction so shouldn’t be locked.

    It shouldn't be locked anyway as it's not before the courts yet.

    Mod:-

    Moving this over to Current Affairs as it is much more suited there.

    It was his last mass.

    Hopefully he makes a speedy recovery so he can enjoy his retirement.
