Finally, In Local News
The article published by the Vatican Insider has finally hit local Guam news....at least part of it. It would be great if the Guam Daily Post had added a link so people can read the entire article published by the Vatican Insider. According to the Guam Daily Post:
The Vatican City news website Vatican Insider added another alleged twist to the growing cases of decades-old child molestation accusations against former Guam Catholic priests.Vatican Insider mentioned the child molestation trial of suspended Archbishop Anthony Apuron, whom it describes as "now awaiting his verdict by the (Vatican Tribunal) presided by Cardinal Burke in the coming days."The Apuron trial, continued the Vatican Insider, is allegedly part of a long chain of events on an island it describes as "in the midst of corruption, intrigues, abuses and power plays.""But what might seem at first glance like another sad story of a pedophile priest on closer inspection becomes a much more complex account of rivalries, plotting, power games, and sex scandals – real or invented – and media campaigns."Vatican Insider is attempting to make a connection between a failed attempt to legalize casino gambling on the island more than a decade ago, and the sex abuse controversies surfacing now, including against Apuron."Everything began in 2002, when a group of Chinese entrepreneurs first laid eyes on the Accion Hotel in Yona, built as a Japanese resort in 2000, but which soon ended up in bankruptcy and set among 20 hectares of seaside property," the report states."When it first opened, the property was valued at between $60 million to $80 million," the report added. It claimed David Lujan, the investors' alleged "local lawyer," was authorized to offer $5 million for the site.‘Las Vegas of the Pacific’"The idea was to transform the hotel into a grand casino; this was part of a larger strategical project aiming at turning the island of Guam into a 'Las Vegas of the Pacific,'" Vatican Insider claims.The report paints Apuron as the church official who opposed the casino project because casinos "don't bring money, but moral misery."Lujan was traveling yesterday and said he couldn't comment immediately because he hadn't read the story.The failed hotel property later was owned by the Guam Catholic Church after $2 million was raised.The church is now selling the former hotel-turned-seminary as part of plans to pay multiple child sex abuse claims.
