Just found this:

Archbishop Vigano, 78, is in hiding in fear for his life

A Story about How Archbishop Viganò’s “Testimony” Came to Be

The text below was published yesterday, in Italian, by Italian Catholic journalist Aldo Maria Valli on his blog (link).

Valli tells us that Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, former apostolic nuncio to the United States, came to visit him twice this summer before publishing his 11-page report on Church cover-ups of sexual abuse.

Valli reports near the end of his story that Viganò, meeting with him at his home in Rome, told him he had “already purchased an airplane ticket” to leave Italy, and cannot tell Valli where will be going.

“I am not to look for him,” Valli writes. “His old cell phone number will no longer work. We say goodbye for the last time.”

And, as American Catholic writer Steve Skojec, who has published an English translation of Valli’s story on his onePeterfive website, writes (link), in a video interview on EWTN, Catholic journalist Edward Pentin of the National Catholic Register confirms that Viganò may fear for his safety, that his life may even be in danger.

“A former apostolic nuncio, widely respected for his professionalism and decency, forced to go into hiding at age 78 for simply telling the truth about his fellow apostolic successors,” Skojec observes.

Then he adds: “There is perhaps more wisdom in this than there appears to be at first glance. Viganò’s colleague, Monsignor Jean François Lantheaume, whose job it was to inform then-Cardinal McCarrick of the news that Pope Benedict XVI had levied sanctions against him because of his abuses, wrote on his Facebook page earlier this week, after confirming the veracity of the Viganò report (evidently citing a French comedian’s monologue, so, not entirely seriously): “These may be the last lines I write… if I am found chopped up by a chainsaw and my body sunk in concrete, the police and the hacks will say that we have to consider the hypothesis of suicide!!!” (link)

Here is the text of this story...

There is much, much more about how this came out a the link in the title.

I hope Vigano does not meet death like Malachi Martin. I believe he was found with small stakes sticking out of this throat/neck. This is frightening. If they can get McCarrick out of this country then they can find Vigano. Neither must happen. The passport must be denied. Now. Thank you for the info. Am reading it all.
