ExaminerMarch 19 2014: Today Nun-in-training Sosefina Amoa sat in a Washington D.C. jail awaiting 23 May sentencing for voluntary manslaughter in the death of her newborn. According to The Washington Post Sister Amoa admitted to smothering the baby she named Joseph after giving him birth at the Catholic Northeast Little Sisters of the Poor Convent.
Although the nuns reported Sister Amoa to police, Catholic authorities have not always been transparent about homicides committed within their secretive walls. According to child abuse survivors of Catholic institutions, it was common for priests and nuns to rape and kill children, especially a newborn. There was assurance from the Vatican that anyone tarnishing the Roman Catholic Church by reporting such crimes would be excommunicated and thus live in eternal Hell.
How many newborns died at the hands of their Catholic parents who were priests and nuns?
“There were babies born, many premature. I knew a newborn was going to be murdered. The mother would snuff the life out of them” stated a former nun who entered a US Catholic convent at age 14. “I became a mechanical human being belonging to Rome” she continued in this video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WkKmU_W8NU
“Nuns getting pregnant and trying to kill their newborns were commonplace in convents” said Sister Mary Chandy (69), a former nun with Catholic Presentation Convent in Kerala, India. She claimed to have saved a newborn when the mother, a nun, tried to kill the baby by pushing it into a toilet tank. Sister Chandy said, “That boy is now a student who lives the life of an orphan.”
Sister Chandy quit her Catholic order 14 years ago when a priest tried to rape her. When she complained about the priest, Catholic authorities branded her as a misfit according to this 31 March 2012 India Timesarticle, http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/thiruvananthapuram/Former-Nuns-a…
“They threw that little baby in the furnace and burned it alive,” said Irene Favel, (75), while explaining her tortured childhood at the Catholic Indian residential school in Muscowequan Saskatchewan, Canada. “All you could hear was this little cry, like “Uuh” and that was it. You could smell that flesh cooking.”
In 1971 Catholic Jesuit priests buried a newborn alive beneath floorboards of the St. Mary’s Mission School in Omak Washington. Clarita Vargas was 14 when she and two other native girls witnessed the murder by the school principal. Two nuns restrained the screaming native mother. Clarita never saw the young mother again, but discovered that she was impregnated by one of the priests.
“There were children thrown into furnaces ” said Native Elders Stee-mas and Wahtsek, survivors of Catholic residential schools in Canada. “The clergy got the young girl pregnant, then put their newborn into the incinerator.”

Why didn’t these homicide cases see a court room?
In 2009 Clarita Vargas’ lawyers were refused investigations by the local tribal police and Omak Washington Sheriff’s Department, while the FBI claimed they would have to “get permission from the Catholic Church” before excavating the still-standing St. Mary’s Mission School where the baby was buried alive.
”Nobody’s ever gone to court for the death of a child” said Canadian Native Elders Stee-mas and Wahtsek about the deaths of 50,000 missing native children. “The Supreme Court judge of British Columbia told us that seeking justice was a fantasy.”
Back in 3 Oct. 1997 with a growing number of witnesses to child homicides at the Catholic native residential school in Alberni Canada, Constable Gerry Peters said, “We could never investigate all the deaths of students at the school. It would be too huge an investigation.”
This begs an obvious question: How safe were our children if Catholic priests and nuns weren’t made to bear responsibility for their crimes against children, including their own?
Sister Maureen Murphy was acquitted of murder charges even though the nun admitted smothering her newborn on 27 April 1976 in the Sisters of St. Joseph convent in Rochester New York. Sister Murphy wouldn’t disclose the name of the baby’s father, though she had resided in the convent for 19 years where the only males around were priests. The judge gave no reason for his not guilty verdict as reported by the Rochester NY Gazett, http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1917&dat=19770304&id=LTkwAAAAIBAJ&…
In 2011 there were 500 US Catholic Jesuit Priest Sex Abuse victims who settled out of court for $166 million. No criminal charges were brought against any Catholic authority – even though witnesses like Clarita exposed the rape, torture and murder of children in Jesuit schools located in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Alaska. Clarita claimed that today the principal who buried the baby alive, resides in an old folks home in Washington. http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/26/us/26jesuits.html?_r=0

Yes they do. Its been going on for hundreds of years. There is a Monastery and Nunnery in Central Europe where remains were found of many many children. Not surprising that it still is going on.
Quite a number of infant skeletons under the Vatican as well.

“There were children thrown into furnaces ” said Native Elders Stee-mas and Wahtsek, survivors of Catholic residential schools in Canada. “The clergy got the young girl pregnant, then put their newborn into the incinerator.”
Those will seem like the North Pole compared to where those monsters will be spending eternity.
