The Age of Consent

It seems that the Cape Cod reporters are supplying the missing links on Father Good Friends.

A sense of shock reverberated through this small village yesterday, triggered by news that the Rev. Bernard Kelly had conducted a sexual relationship with the man accused of killing Jonathan Wessner. Paul Nolin, 39, a convicted sex offender from Falmouth, charged last week with Wessner's murder, worked as a handyman at the church.

A neighbor of St. Joseph's parish said yesterday that she was shocked to hear of Nolin's connection to the church, just doors away from where she and her two small children live. ... "I have no real issues with Nolin and Kelly if they had a relationship. They're adults."

We're on a learning curve here.
