Rewind back to the Spring of 2015; where we left off last episode - Bishop Malone is still sleeping soundly in his bougie abode on Oakland Place - Joe Wedge has been asked to help exhume a body by a Priest, Father Rob Marino - Joe says he can’t turn down a favor from a Priest and he and Rob are friends after all….
There was no gun in the casket but they do find a curious second suture - was there a 2nd bullet wound? Perhaps the brain will offer more insight.

The Crime Scene
We rewind to the morning of October 13th, 2012. Sue has equipped us with her brother’s phone records, schedule and calendar to produce a timeline.
Father Joe's Twin Sister Sue is so well versed in this case, she can stack so much evidence against the alleged suicide of her brother in one fail swoop that it can leave you breathless. In awe, shocked something like this could happen in America…

We left off last episode at the crime scene the day Father Joe died… however to understand the circumstances surrounding a rectory that is now taped off and crawling with cops, fire fighters and first responders we must push the clock back even farther and rewind another month to September 12th 2012 when the diocese requests Father Joe to do an audit of St. Lawrence.

Customer Reviews
Joe
I am loving the main source of this story, Joe, the catholic, married, gay, truth seaker who is hilariously sarcastic, and isn’t squimish about peeling back the skin off of the skull of an exhumed corpse and not afraid to expose the religion he still practices.
Thrilling and perplexing
Really looking forward to listening in one!!
