Bisexual hypocrisy rocks Vatican; married papal usher procures seminary youths for gay sex

It's another blow against the Roman Catholic Church and hypocrisy of anti-gay sentiment by the Vatican to hear that a singer from the choir and a leader in the church were arrested for what is believed to be a gay prostitution ring that occurred right under the noses of religious staff.

A 29-year-old singer from the elite Vatican choir, Thomas Chinedu Ehiem, is said to have procured at least 10 young men, including two Cuban youths, a rugby player and a male model, to pay special visits to Angelo Balducci.

A married man with two children, Balducci is also a high church leader who is part of the Gentleman of His Holiness, and carried the coffin of Pope John-Paul II when he was buried in 2005.

Some of the young men were seminary students, once from Germany, two black men, and a dancer, and the bodies of the guys were described in great detail.

Police wire taps reveal that Balducci asks Ehiem about one of the guys: “At what time does he have to return to the seminary?”

He paid about $2,700 for each encounter.

The story was first written by the Italian paper La Repubblica, and a follow-up was written in The New York Times by reporter Rachel Donadio and published Friday (March 5).

Balducci was removed from his post, and Ehiem was dismissed.

Balducci was arrested and his attorney said he is innocent of all charges, and said that his client "laughed" at the sexual allegations.
