Why is arrested in quotes?

The Romanian language article cited previously indicated he was brought in for 24 hours questioning. While wearing handcuffs. I guess its only an arrest once there is a charge? Just speculating.

It was just sparkling detention?

Probably English Libel laws. The quotes mean that they’re quoting someone else saying that he’s been arrested, they’re not making that claim themselves.
UK media reflexively cover themselves like this because they can be made to prove their claims are true, rather than the complainant proving that what they said was false.

I sincerely hope he got the shit beaten out of him. Or, at least, roughly escorted from the mall.
What an asshole.

“controversial than that) and the “word” was that oh no big deal he’s sick he’ll die soon anyway so don’t worry about it. Then he resigned for reasons never quite clearly explained in 2013 (yes everyone can tell you why, but not really why) and lived to be 95.”
I really do wonder what he was involved in.

I thought it was his role in moving priests around who were abusing children, honestly. He was very close to John Paul II, for one…
Do you think there could be more than that? Seems like considering how much was coming out at the time he retired, that was more than enough.

So many scandals. That. The Vatican Papers released by his aide. The financial scandals by the Curia, the Vatican Bank scandals.
But those didn’t get him booted earlier. And his inability to manage was beneficial to the scammers on the inside- so why depose him?
It sounds like something else was never revealed- and a lot of the pressure wasn’t from those working inside the Vatican. Hence the first non European Pope in 1,300 years - and politically very different.
Or not, I guess.

If that’s true, then I do wonder what it was…
That’s true, too. I remember people being angry that they had picked yet another central European. That probably gave people in the Vatican an excuse to force him out, too, as it would appear more “democratic” and a nod towards the power of the church in the global south… the next should be African given how that’s the place with the largest growth for the Church.
Yeah agreed. Francis has done some real cosmetic changes around the various scandals, but not the radical change that many really hoped from him (especially around LGBQT+ and women’s issues). The more the church hierarchy digs in and refuses to change with the times, and update their interpretation to better reflect the diversity of actual Catholics in the world (including people like my late aunt, who was a committed Catholic all her life, even as her life partner was a woman), they are just going to keep losing the faithful. There needs to be another major revision to keep up with the times, if they want to stop that from happening. What Francis is doing is really not enough. If it loses them conservative followers, then maybe they are the ones who need to go…

Sinead did not deserve what she got after that… I really want to check out that documentary about the aftermath of that event…
She got a rough deal for standing up for the truth about what the Church was covering up… Time has vindicated her.

What in the actual fuck…
Lady spent her OWN money (presumable) for tickets… and then spent the first act being disruptive and then just completely derailed the play at the beginning of the second act…

Reminds me of an incident last month when a heckler attempted to mess up Octavia Spencer’s moment in the spotlight. Will Ferrell was a true ally that day!
