Dan DuPree. AKA Father Daniel T. DuPree of Memphis, Tennessee. Abused over and over.
Yesterday, the court ruled against the courageous man who is trying to tell you the truth about this pedophile. But he can't tell you because he didn't tell you years ago.
It's not about money. It's about the truth.
He knows that Dan DuPree is still out there. DuPree left the priesthood and is now living somewhere near Texarkana. Don't bother looking on the sex offender list. He's not there and won't be there because the duplicit Memphis Catholic diocese waited out the pathetic statute of limitation so that they would not have to be liable for the perversion of Dupree and other pedophile priests.
Here's is the reason that the court has given for tossing out this heroic attempt to get out the truth.
The man filing suit against the church for lying and hiding this pedophile did not tell his parents, tell his neighbors, tell his friends, tell his girlfriend, tell his high school graduating class, tell the police, tell the judge, tell the court, tell the jury, tell the citizens of Memphis, tell the state of Tennessee, tell the entire country about Dan Dupree by the time he was 19 years old.
19 YEARS OLD. 19 YEARS OLD. Are you hearing this people???? What else in the world does a 19-year-old have to do except to openly ruin his life by telling the world that he was molested?
A victim, a young man barely over 18 and not yet the legal age to even drink a beer, did not ruin his life by reporting to EVERYONE about Dan Dupree. So he gets no justice, and Dan DuPree still lurks out there, able to abuse at will. And the church still keeps its deep, dark, evil secrets about how much abuse has occurred at the hands of its clergy?
Wrong??? You bet it's wrong!!!! It's so much more than wrong that I don't have room to go into all the ways.
Is Dan Dupree one of the 10 pedophiles that the Diocese of Memphis told the district attorney about? We don't know because we are not told those 10 names.
If you are sitting there reading this and you don't demand the truth from the catholic church in Tennessee, you are complicit in this crime. You are, as I said before, an arrogant, self-righteous adult.
Shame on all of us for the continued abuse of our children.
