Desert Beliefs: Father Gary Underwood update

“No showing has been made that the prosecution intentionally slowed the proceedings; once the alleged victims came forward the state acted in a timely fashion.”

Looks like the Rev. Gary E. Underwood may be heading to trial on charges that he molested three teenage boys during the 1980s. via The Arizona Daily Star

I don't believe the accusations against Fr. Gary Underwood. I knew him personally as my priest from 1989-1991 while serving in the USAF. Even if the accusations are true I hold no ill feelings towards him and won't pass any bad judgement against him. Your in our prayers!! Jerry and Dulce!

Pull your heads out of your butts!! I know the victims and they would not make this up, why? I know what they have been going through the last 20 years. I'm so sick of people thinking these priest are beyond the law, Gods and the state. They are just men, dishonest ugly men who deserve harsher punishment then normal. Thank God I'm not catholic.
THANK GOD!!! I hope he spends the rest of his life in person. There are plenty of men there who would love to get a piece of him. Eye for an eye. AMEN

Yea, It's hard Jerry to pass judgement on a priest who shows 15 year boys porn, serves them booze and cons them into oral sex. God bless your retarded heart Jerry! By the way, I remeber seeing that Corvette..a 65 wasn't it? Who knew that would be a wagon for child molesting...hope they bury him in it.

"Prosecutors say Underwood molested the boys in the St. Odilia’s rectory, as well as in a hot tub, in his car and inside the church itself. He is accused of having an “overarching scheme or plan” to engage in sexual acts with the boys, befriending them with a young, cool, demeanor and driving them in his red Corvette. Prosecutors say he then took advantage of them by supplying them with alcohol, showing them pornography, and having sexual contact with them".

Oh Jerry and Dulce my dear friends, believe it for it is true my children. For he who offers worship also ovveres sex to young BOYS. Read bellow:

ARIZONA DAILY STAR …former Tucson priest admitted Tuesday afternoon to engaging in sexual acts with three teenage boys in 1983 and 1984.

The Rev. Gary E. Underwood pleaded guilty to six counts of sexual conduct with a minor and will be sentenced in August.

On Tuesday, Underwood admitted he engaged in oral sex with two of the boys and other acts with the third.

Wow, what a sick man! Befriends little boys and has oral sex with them? Sick! Utilized his "Little Red Corvette" (Prince joke) in many ways didnt he. LOL...what a sicko. People turn to him for worship, support and guidance. And how does he return the favor? He molests your young male children! So what if it has been 15 years since the act took place...who's to say there weren't others who are just embarased or affraid to speak out. It's like a kid and the cookie jar, once you had one cookie...you always go back a sneak somemore. He is guily as sin and hope he gets what he deserves.

I can't believe I'm reading this! This man admitted to molesting children and you have no bad judgement against him? He passed a life sentence on these children when he did this to them.
