Trumped Up Charges: Father Rutler Cleared
After a seven-month probe, a Manhattan District Attorney has thrown out allegations of "assault" levelled against well-known Father George Rutler, a former Anglican parson, parish-priest and publicist.
The attorney considered the allegations baseless, according to journalists and parishioners writing on Twitter (May 28). Ashley Gonzalez, a female security guard of Rutler's parish, had accused him in November 2020 of an "attempted rape."
From the beginning it was clear that these claims were bogus. Involving police in the matter served mainly as an excuse to publish a video produced by Gonzalez allegedly showing Father Rutler from the back watching homosexual porn in order to destroy his reputation.
