Several million dollars worth of property controls the Priestly Union whose leader is Fernando Karadima, the priest accused of sexual abuse. CIPER detected more than a dozen buildings in the name of the organization, which also controls the property of the parish El Bosque, valued at over U.S. $ 10 million-Karadima temple from which he built his network of influence in the conservative elite. This is key data and ecclesiastical judicial investigations, as the circle has made millionaires Karadima payments to persons who report abuse or who may be witnesses and is required to establish the origin of these funds. Among the goods purchased are property Karadima order in which Dr. James Hamilton lived in the same period when, as charged, the priest had sex with him. The charges of the four original complainants were reinforced by powerful stories to which CIPER had access, including the chancellor of the Archdiocese and a former member of the Priestly Union, Hans Kast.
On August 22, 2009, 16 days after turning 79, the priest Fernando Fariña Karadima reached the new condo Lilac Park in Eliodoro Yáñez 2831, corner of El Bosque. An imposing 16-story tower. He was accompanied by five priests and a layman, who now constitute its innermost core, the last circle of defense against allegations of sexual abuse to justice faced since April this year.
There were priests Juan Esteban Morales and Diego Mena Errazuriz Ossa, pastor and vicar of the church on Forest respectively Manieu Andrés Arteaga (auxiliary bishop of Santiago), Jose Tomas Errazuriz and Antonio Salinas Fuenzalida Besa, the trio is today the board of a very important organization in the history of the priest Karadima, Priestly Union of the Sacred Heart of Jesus .
The group also was Costabal Francisco Gonzalez, an engineer and president of Catholic Action, a movement of lay people from the parish El Bosque, who lives in the same church. The brand
tower, the group asked to see the plans and visited the pilot department. For the various people who found the route he did, and whose testimony collected CIPER- became clear that one of them bore any authority. Karadima only asking the questions and deciding what to do, commenting on the quality of what they sought. The others nodded.
department which pleased him most was three bedrooms and three bathrooms spread over 156 square meters. From the main window you could see the parish El Bosque in its entirety and Cousiño Loreto Square, named in tribute to the former owner of the whole area in the 40 gave the money to build the temple where he was vicar for Karadima 25 years and pastor for nearly 23 years.
Apparently Karadima was satisfied. Four days after returned to oversee the purchasing department 801 of the tower A, plus two parking lots and a warehouse. Everything about 7,491 UF, about 159 million pesos ($ 21,230 UF).
The department, however, was not the name of Karadima. Was included as assets of the Union of Priests of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. And who signed the purchase was Andrés Arteaga Manieu, auxiliary bishop also is director of that organization for over 20 years.
This department was the second that the priests of the Priestly Union bought in that condominium. The first was acquired before, in green, 801, Tower B of Eliodoro Yáñez 2839. Paid other 159 million. It also overlooks all parish facilities Forest. The sudden momentum
property of the Priestly Union directive and its driver, Fernando Karadima, did not end there. Days later, in September 2009, the group made a new investment: bought two apartments in Tower A of the condominium (the 701 and 1201 more than four parking spaces and two warehouses). I canceled with a note for UF 15,158, about $ 320 million.
In two months, the father Karadima oversaw the purchase of property over $ 600 million.
Unlike the first two departments, the last two were in the name of the priest Antonio Fuenzalida Besa, a key advisor and financial structure of the Union of Priests and the inner circle of confidence Karadima.
Fuenzalida, pastor of St. Vincent de Paul (Whereabouts Vicuña Mackenna, 14), is also an owner of Turismo Cocha, a company that normally used for their continuous Karadima foreign travel. CIPER research reveals that normally traveled at least once a year outside of Chile. I was in first class and he was accompanied by an entourage of at least three or four people.
Priestly Union won its legal August 13 1948 and its mission was to promote compassion and adoration of Jesus among the diocesan priests who would join her. But the facts indicate that one of its objectives has been the accumulation of property. Just around the parish El Bosque, CIPER able to locate four other properties to its name:
Two departments are in the community "The Apostles", built in front of the parish Forest (No. 602 of El Bosque 915 and the No. 702, 957 El Bosque plus four parking spaces and two warehouses). Each are paid more than $ 66 million. And Carlos Antúnez house donated to the Priestly Union Goals by Nicholas Arzi in 1984.
The fourth property is located within the premises of the church but with a separate entrance to street Eliodoro Yáñez No. 2820. There does "Forest Medical Center." Your tax valuation is $ 156 million and the Priestly Union paid contributions of $ 469 000. Leased by a group of doctors to pay the monthly fee to an account on behalf of the Parroquia El Bosque.
But there are other real estate is the most valuable and which holds the greatest mysteries. Is the block which houses all the facilities of the Sacred Heart (El Bosque), a set that includes the imposing tower and a priestly house, designed by Italian architect Carlos Bresciani. Your tax valuation of 5 thousand 164 million pesos (about $ 10 million). Not pay contributions, as a place of worship. And as the owner, is the "Parish of the Forest", a non RUT.
Who is this entity? The exhaustive search was CIPER in the Real Estate, the City of Providence, Internal Revenue and other official records, shows that this huge property is under the control of the Priestly Union, is under the control of Fernando Karadima ( View box). One of the documents to prove it was presented to the City of Providence. It is dated May 24, 1988 and signed by the priest Andrés Arteaga, auxiliary bishop of Santiago, and director of the Union today. In the request, as representative of the owner of the land "which also has street access Forest No. 822 and Juan de Dios Vial No. 1225" - certificate number.
PAYMENTS TO ACCUSE
accuracy on Karadima goods available, the Union of Priests and bishops and priests who make up his inner circle, has become a crucial issue in the judicial investigation into sexual abuse which is charged with both he and the priest Diego Ossa, vicar of the parish of the Sacred Heart.
This is because the sources and amounts of the resources available to Karadima and his group became the crux of the judicial investigation at the precise moment when the prosecutor investigating the sexual abuse found the strange "gifts" of several million dollars that Karadima and the vicar Diego Ossa made to persons who might have information about the allegations. All of them close to the Priestly Union and the closed group of the Church of El Bosque.
At least one of them, Oscar Osbén, an official of the Foundation Roses between 2003 and 2006 (the priest who heads the Andrew Ariztía, member of the Priestly Union of the Sacred Heart) said he was abused by the vicar in the Parish Diego Ossa Jesus Huamachuco Carpenter, and requested $ 100 million "in compensation for the damage." That includes the testimony and documents gathered CIPER .
the prosecutor's office also is there any evidence of it, as Diego Ossa, now vicar of the Parish of El Bosque, Osbén admitted having paid $ 8 million, limiting, "and not be given more."
Karadima, in his statement to the prosecutor, said he had paid $ 10 million. A number other than that collected CIPER CE, who had known for many years to Diego Ossa and Osbén and also worked in the parish Forest until 31 May. According to EC, Osbén you paid part in cash, plus the cancellation of a debt for a car that Chevrolet Sedan Forum held with the company and three and a half million pesos for a debt in the dividends of your home.
Where did the money for these payments?
direct Witnesses say CIPER consulted by many of the benefits given in cash and at least one of them, Oscar Osbén, was made with a check signed by the priest himself Karadima.
In fact, these payments were Osbén, made through counsel of Karadima, Juan Pablo Bulnes Cerda, that triggered the sending of a court trial of the old system. This, because the prosecutor Xavier Armendariz, manager of the investigation, ordered the attorney's office raided Bulnes.
Bulnes's role in this episode is relevant. Osbén met at least three occasions. The first in a clinic in Santiago. The last, in the Parque Arauco, precisely on Pentecost Sunday, when Catholics celebrate the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles, which gives them the strength to go out to evangelize, which is interpreted as the birth of the Catholic Church.
When asked Armendáriz a judge's permission for the raid, he ordered the trial to be sent to the old system and that all allegations of sexual abuse dating back to before 2005. The Law Offices of Juan Pablo Bulnes was not raided. However, the edge of the investigation into the payments remains in the hands of Armendariz. ANOTHER MYSTERY
KARADIMA
The driver and spiritual leader of the members of the Priestly Union and El Bosque, no, at least in Santiago, property in his name. The street had Father Restrepo 2615, Department No. 3, inherited from his mother, sold in January this year in 2000 UF.
Karadima start-up also recorded before Tax Internal. You do not pay taxes. However, it has two cars, both VW. A Golf 2.0 2000 model and another model gray Gol 2008 Murano Crossover, acquired January 9, 2008.
One of the many near or community members with whom she spoke CIPER, said Karadima controls several properties, but they all put them on behalf of other priests. Many of them are leased and payments go directly to the account of Karadima. Only a few go to the parish accounts (current and investment) on the banks of Chile and BICE.
When informed of the "donations" made by Karadima to potential witnesses in the case, the Archbishopric of Santiago is quick to find if you had taken the money they bring the faithful to Sacred Heart Parish. The research, done by the auxiliary bishop Fernando Chomalí, determined that it was not. He even made a public statement.
However, CIPER research could determine two central aspects of these payments.
First: the Archbishop can not conclusively demonstrate that no monies used in this faithful rendition of money, simply because there is no clear accountability. In fact, there is only a book of income and expenses, which reviewed the bishop Chomalí. And these books fit. But books are primary. Not even include balances. Only Now, following the scandal, began to use an accounting system. Therefore, no one can say that all donations received by the parish contained in books.
The truth is that CIPER has gathered half a dozen knowledgeable sources said it is not so. One is CE, who for over 13 years is linked to members of the community of El Bosque and until last May 31 was sacristan there.
EC states that all employees of the Forest earned more than what appeared in the forms that were sent to the Archdiocese. That extra money that he received and that nearly doubled his salary, they are paid in cash: "The father Fernando (Karadima) told us that they did so to avoid comments that the Archbishop did not really know how we won, "
A second fact casts doubt on his use Karadima and his group of money they have received and given as gifts. And this is evident from the millions in "aid" to employees who abruptly took place in the community of Sacred Heart Church late last year. Particularly in the key moment of complaints against Karadima.
accused priest himself against the prosecutor took the first sexton of the church since 1982, J. Onesimus and his wife Silvia Cea, cook Forest since 1994, he bought them a house, just last year, "which invested $ 20 million." And he added: "I did it because I wanted it. Grateful for how he behaved with my mother. " Another
employees who received a gift last October was the secretary P. Vasconcellos, who said Karadima having given eight to 10 million pesos.
And there's more movement. All broke out after the chancellor of the Archdiocese received new allegations of sexual abuse against Karadima (which originated in 2003), in late 2009. This chancellor is Hans Kast, the same priest who belonged for 20 years to the community of El Bosque and the Union Priestly, of which severed all ties in 2005. TOTAL CONTROL
On 10 May this year the priest Hans Kast Rist, testified in court on sex abuse investigation is accused the pastor of El Bosque.
Karadima was pastor for 23 years (until 2006) of that temple and confessor and spiritual director of hundreds of youths from the economic and social elite. Among them was Hans Kast himself, his disciple until he moved away in 2005.
Kast told prosecutors that he saw Karadima kiss two young adults in the mouth, outside his room in the parish and one of them asked him to kiss out with language.
also recounted that he once saw a Karadima refer to a young adult as his "lady in waiting," another called "boyfriend" and a third touched his genitals and buttocks outside the trousers. Sometimes some young adults stayed up late with his father and went Karadima at dawn by the back door of the parish, street Juan de Dios Vial.
The current Chancellor of the Archbishop also spoke of "Cueto", a term used to refer Karadima sex and that emerged from a television program about sexuality and marriage of Enrique Cueto. He declared that Karadima James Hamilton asked to do a "deep Cueto."
James Hamilton is one of the main complainants Karadima with José Andrés Murillo, Fernando Batlle Lathrop and Juan Carlos Cruz Chellew.
Kast declaration of strength and gave him another look at the charges against Karadima at a time when much of the conservative Catholic elite would not believe what was said the priest had marked generations. A Kast complainants given unexpected support and unknown until now.
In his testimony not only speaks of groping or sex games, like some other witnesses. The Chancellor of the Archdiocese suggests that can Karadima be able to control the minds of young people who come to him boldly. In fact, think it may be necessary to submit it to a psychological examination.
Kast told prosecutors that Karadima sometimes seems to replace the father figure of some young people, underestimating their real parents. And says he is concerned by some young adults and the influence exerted on them. And he wonders if there will be no victims in the nearest group, people who must be helped to free healthy. Karadima wondered whether there is a "spiritual charming."
Finally, the priest who said there have been far from constant use boring the language of double meaning in the inner circle Karadima, wonders whether what is happening there is not a flammable atmosphere in which just a little spark to occur at a greater abuse.
Karadima replied. In his circle and to the prosecutor. The latter said: "I find a disgrace and a lie what he says. We were very close for 25 years, holiday with others in the field many times, but we drifted apart in 2005, he walked away, I do not know exactly why ... are infamous ... I do not understand the reason for their attitude, maybe he dropped something wrong I said about his studies or readings or attempt to change his name. "
And on the use of the word "cuetito", he added: "As for what 'Cueto', was for a TV program and I mean any immoral, improper." TWO KEY WITNESSES
A testimony that delves into the personality of the priest offered Karadima Fernando Ferrada Moreira, pastor of the church Jesus Carpenter Renca. Fernando and his brother Andrew, also religious, formed in El Bosque, the eaves of Karadima, but Andrew was removed some years ago the priest. Karadima
said Fernando Ferrer, has a strong personality "who imposes his will mistaking with the will of God, and that confuses salvation with His will and insist on obedience. "
Fernando Ferrada known to those extremes that could reach Karadima obeying. "I left my brother Andrew because he was away from his influence. Only now we are back to talk after a long time that we did not. All this has been a gradual process of realizing what is happening, "he said.
CIPER Several testimonies collected by showing a "Karadima public" who know the true and another, very different, that unfolds before his closest. So says FGB, who approached the parish to 18, in the moments when his father went through a serious illness.
His testimony is key to the judicial inquiry and to the church ( see box). Karadima shows a contradictory, cruel and obsessed with money. He says: "Once I saw him empty the collection bags his Mass, which was very busy and got together enough money, and throwing coins and banknotes in the air, saying" To think that all this money is mine '. "
He adds: "But what puzzled me was his physical attitude, as had the habit of tapping in the genital area, as the last. I saw him many times and also made me. Always went to that part of the body. It also gave kisses on the face near the mouth, had to run, and sometimes kisses were 'gutter'. Even I noticed that some of the young men were experts in dodging the situation, as Horacio Valenzuela, the current Bishop of Talca, who was master. " Masturbation
imprisoning
In the story of James Hamilton, one of the principal complainants, appears again and again the dominant character. One of its facets was economic control.
Hamilton Parish approached El Bosque at age 17. Like other plaintiffs accusing sexual abuse at Hamilton missing father. Karadima told him he would be his father. And I had to greet him as such kiss. He says that soon move his face began to steal a kiss on the mouth and then laughed saying it was a joke. He also fingered the genitals, or accidentally. And when he saw that all it had, I thought that Karadima was testing his sexual temperance.
When I was 18, while on tour in Vina, Karadima masturbated him. Hamilton told the prosecution that was stunned, but the priest told him it was a minor fall. Sent him to confess to another priest to say, without going into any detail, he had committed a "sin of purity."
Hamilton says that since there was a prisoner of Karadima. He was full of fear and also guilty of having caused something. Karadima thought was a holy man. As I believe most young people around him. And I kept thinking during the long and tortuous relationship he had with Karadima and lasted 22 years, including 18 who were married.
Hamilton
Once married, a woman who Karadima approved and also became part of the Parroquia El Bosque, the priest kept under control by sending him to live in houses adjacent to the parish. Even then, he followed visiting your home. But sex and harassment never stopped.
His ex-wife corroborated his statements in testimony before the ecclesiastical courts. "Karadima asked a priest to buy an apartment in the neighborhood and then lease it to us." The department in question is the 802 of El Bosque No. 1247. It is 140 meters: 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a large terrace overlooking the parish. Its owner: the priest Tocornal Jaime Vial, pastor of the church San Luis Beltrán, South Pudahuel, and member of the Priestly Union.
According to scripture, 6 000 535 UF paid in cash ($ 138 million today). The purchase was made in 1997, the same year that Hamilton came to live there, which means that the priest and immediately bought it and leased it to Hamilton.
Other priests who shared with Hamilton at the time in El Bosque say that in those years the couple could not have paid for a property case. In that department, Hamilton received his only regular confessor and spiritual guide, who also became the confessor of his wife. It is she who reveals that during the confession, the father asked for details of their married life in Hamilton.
The couple lived there until 2001. Already with three children, also moved into a house near the parish, chosen by Karadima. It is located in the Balearics 937. CIPER just found that was purchased in 2001 by Francisco Prochaska Vecsey, a key figure in the inner circle of Karadima. Your price: UF 3,036 (about $ 64 million today).
All CIPER polled by Prochaska say in those years was not enough money to buy a property of that value, less cash. They also ensure that the house was donated to Gonzalo Tocornal Pochaska Karadima and simple would be a sort of custodian of the donation. CIPER consulted, Prochascka refused to respond. There
Hamilton and his family lived until 2004. Years when tocaciones and masturbation to the homeowner continued, sometimes even on the second floor of the home when the rest of the family stayed on the ground floor. This was Hamilton himself declared the prosecutor.
Today that dwelling house Prochaska. Locals say that quite often the father Karadima be seen there, to the dinner.
"THINK THAT ALL THIS MONEY IS MINE"
The following testimony by a former parishioner of El Bosque who became secretary of Karadima, is one of the key elements for both the judicial inquiry as to the church. Portrays a priest with a split personality, likely to be exceeded in physical contact with young parishioners and very interested for money. It also delivers a serious history: the late Cardinal Juan Francisco Fresno would have been informed of the charges against Karadima in 1984, but tore up the letter with the complaint. At that time, Secretary of Fresno was the current military Bishop Juan Barros, formed by Karadima and member of the Priestly Union
Here are some excerpts from this testimony:
"I was 18 and because of a serious illness of my my father went to the parish of El Bosque, feeling the need to pray for him. Nobody invited me and introduced me. "
" Soon (Karadima) asked me I was his secretary, I accepted. About a month and a half I started to realize that there as something inconsistent in Karadima father, because, first, appeared in public meetings as a faithful follower of God, and more privately, with your closest group , made fun of some of the young or people who went to the site, hurtful things .... I remember once, Karadima father came out to talk with a young man named C., and tells the two or three who were there at the time that she had asked for help or contacts to enter the cloistered nuns ( Discalced Carmelites), said: "This fat, if does not get a nun, I see another wall awaits you, with absolute leave derogatory.
"Again I saw him empty the collection bags of his Mass, which was very busy and got together enough money, I saw him throwing coins and banknotes in the air, saying and think that all this money is mine .
"But what really puzzled me was his physical attitude, because I had the usual practice of tapping into the genital area, as the last, but only in that area, that I saw him many times, was common and so made me remember that I have not touched the shoulder, was to that body part and gave kisses on the face near the mouth, had to run, and sometimes kisses were we count . Even I noticed that some of the young men were experts in dodging the situation, as Horacio Valenzuela, the Bishop of Talca, who was a teacher. However, this was not discussed formally, but, obviously, we all saw.
"All this made my enthusiasm for the parish was cool and started to drive away, prompting an immediate reaction Karadima own group and they told me I was going to apply control.
"In 1984 my sister Catherine, who had been in El Bosque, told me that some people there wanted to make a claim against Cardinal Karadima Fresno, and if I wanted to sign, which I did. It was a very general claim, saying he spoke of improper conduct, but no names or details. I signed it and the funny thing is that I learned of his fate, as a friend of mine in Concepción, a journalist, it was soon time to work with Fresno and, at my request, found that Fresno tore up the letter and threw it away. "
Ownership of $ 10 million
Some of the tracks can get to the origin of property of the Parish El Bosque is located in the City of Providence. On March 12, 1941, Loreto Cousino Lyon, requested permission to build on their property, the church of the Sacred Heart. The money for this work were donated by the very Cousino, who is listed as the owner of the land in all municipal documents until 1952. On 30 May of that year, she sold the block to the father Alejandro Hunneus Cox, who was also secretary general of the Archbishopric of Santiago and first pastor of Sacred Heart Church.
The deed of sale, however, is dated May 30, 1942. And the price you paid Hunneus: $ 1,200,000. What did
Hunneus with that land? CIPER found in the Real Estate a document that can explain it. Is a transfer of the block-grant made to the Foundation Hunneus Priestly Union of Love Mercy of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. It is dated August 1, 1952.
This situation is confirmed by the paper presented in May 1998 to the Municipality of Providencia where the priest Andrés Arteaga, director of the Union of Priests and current Auxiliary Bishop of Santiago, appears to represent the owner of the entire block.
