New In The Wall Street Journal: The Father Gordon MacRae Case


Editors Note: In a major development in the case of wrongly imprisoned priest, Father Gordon MacRae, the nations largest newspaper has once again taken up this story. Dorothy Rabinowitz, a pulitzer prize winning journalist on The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board, published a riveting article on the Father MacRae case on May 10 entitled, “The Trials of Father MacRae.”
Dorothy Rabinowitz analyzed Father MacRae’s 1994 trial as well as the issues and newer evidence in the current appeal effort now underway. Her article also presents due process concerns for both the Church and the justice system.  Her interview video is a must watch!
This is an important story, not only for Father Gordon MacRae and the readers of These Stone Walls, but for all falsely accused priests. We invite These Stone Walls readers to
