Inmates – Who Are Known for Hating Pedophile Offenders – Cheered With Pell

Cardinal George Pell found out about his acquittal while watching the television news alone in his prison cell, he told CatholicNewsAgency.com (April 7):

“I did hear a great cheer from somewhere within the jail and then the three other inmates near me made it clear they were delighted for me.”

After his release, Pell enjoyed a steak for his first “free” meal after 400 days in prison, in the midst of Holy Week.

“What I am really looking forward to is celebrating a private Mass,” he said.

He called the imprisonment a “long retreat,” and a time for reflection, writing, and, above all, prayer.

Judge not, lest you be judged. When you look at the evidence which was apparently presented in the court it clearly points to Pell's innocence.

In some ways, that's the most convincing evidence proving his innocence. Like they say, "you can't con a con." Criminals are like most confined animals, they have an uncanny knack for detecting any trace of sickness among their fellow inmates.

there is more evidence against the PEDONAL! (pedo cardinal) than was ever against Pope Alexander the 6th. all I can say to Pell is remember proverbs 21:11! justice is coming for you!!!

Simmering in hate is the closest experience of hell on earth.

The Australian Courts have spoken. To those who previously maligned the judicial process of my country, let them now, like the inmates housed with Cardinal Pell, be of 'good cheer' and reflect on the tormented souls of Pell's accusers, they too are in need of our prayers and compassion.
