Former school counselor and Roman Catholic priest James Beine has been defrocked by the Vatican, the St. Louis Archdiocese announced Thursday.More.
James Beine’s name was on a list of just under 12 priests submitted to the Vatican in October of 2003, Archdiocesan spokesman Jamie Allman said by telephone Thursday.
After then-Cardinal John J. Carberry revoked his priestly faculties in 1977, Beine started his own church.
The Vatican laicized Beine March 29, Allman said, but the death of Pope John Paul II and the selection of a new pope delayed notification of the Archdiocese until Tuesday.

I was a student at Compton heights grade school in St. Louis MO, James Beine was brought on board by another pedophile, Jerome B. Robben. Hope they don't hurt anyone any longer.
