'''Truth in Justice:
Was the Wrong Catholic Priest Sent to Prison?'''
Compiled from official documents by Ryan A. MacDonald
On September 28, Father MacRae received this message read to him in prison from his Gmail inbox. It was from the unnamed r/Catholicism moderator at Reddit:
“You are permanently banned from participating in r/Catholicism. You can still view and subscribe, but you won’t be allowed to post or comment. Due to the nature of your participation, we cannot permit you to continue participating in the r/Catholicism community.”
Any priest can be “gotten rid of” by a mere accusation of uncorroborated sexual impropriety dating back decades. It is, as Father MacRae described in a stand-out article at Linkedin, “A Weapon of Mass Destruction: Catholic Priests Falsely Accused.”

Fr. MacRae refused a plea deal that would have let him walk after a year in prison. 27 years later, he remains behind bars, serving a 66 year sentence for a crime he did not commit.
