Why did Basilians (Rosica and St Mike’s College School) put a credibly acused priest in positions of authority? #happyhandshanna #catholicmetoo #tonews

Why did the Basilians conceal the truth about Father Jack Hanna’s “misconduct”?

The Basilians told everyone that Hanna had abused a man (BAD ENOUGH!) but now we found out he was credibly accused of CHILD sex abuse!!)

https://www.houstonchronicle.com/local/gray-matters/article/catholic-church-sexual-abuse-silence-trauma-13610101.php In 1999, during my last semester at the University of St. Thomas, I studied Spanish and Mexican culture in Merida, Yucatan, with a priest as one of my teachers. Father Jack Hanna, a charismatic and charming priest, taught us about Mayan culture and the joy of the Spanish language. Over those three months, I had no reservations in living in a house with him and the other dozen students. A few weeks ago, the Galveston-Houston diocese released a list of priests “credibly accused” of sexual abuse. Hanna‘s name was on the list. My reaction was a mix of anger and shame. I remembered commenting frequently to a friend that I thought it was inappropriate how he singled out a male student, frequently and openly caressing his back. I remember that I thought it unusual how laid-back Hanna was: He drank beer freely and ignored our drinking binges and late-night parties. Ay, jovenes, he frequently said in jest when we tested his limits.
