Priest guilty of killing nun will get funeral Mass

A Roman Catholic priest convicted of stabbing and strangling a nun 34 years ago in a hospital chapel will receive a funeral Mass, a church official said Saturday.
The Rev. Gerald Robinson remained an ordained priest after his conviction and his services will follow the usual protocol for a diocesan priest's funeral, the Rev. Charles Ritter, administrator for the Diocese of Toledo, said in a statement.
Robinson, 76, died Friday. He had been serving a prison sentence of 15 years to life in what church historians have characterized as the only documented case of a Catholic priest killing a nun. He was arrested 24 years after the nun's death and found guilty in 2006 of stabbing and strangling Sister Margaret Ann Pahl at a Toledo hospital where they both worked.
Robinson had been in a hospice unit since the end of May after suffering a heart attack.
Robinson and Pahl, 71, had worked closely together at the hospital, where he was a chaplain and she was caretaker of the chapel. He presided at her funeral Mass.
Prosecutors blamed the murder on Robinson's simmering anger over Pahl's domineering ways, saying their relationship was strained and that Pahl was upset over the shortening of Good Friday services a day before she was killed. |

Court rejects challenge to US-Canada bridge plan

An appeals court has upheld a federal agency's selection of a Detroit neighborhood as the location for a new U.S.-Canada bridge.
The court affirmed the decision of a Detroit federal judge, who rejected a lawsuit by community groups and owners of the private Ambassador Bridge.
They oppose the Federal Highway Administration's choice of the Delray neighborhood for the bridge crossing, contending it violates principles of environmental justice. But the appeals court said Friday that the agency followed a "lengthy, reasoned process."
Earlier this month, the U.S. Coast Guard granted a permit to construct the publicly owned bridge between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario.
Canadian officials say it could take at least a decade to finish the project. |
