@_heretichunter The 14 year old disinformation needs to stop as it's inaccurate, she was 16 when the relation started.. The grooming? Absolutely wrong and needs to be condemned.

“WRETCHED SAINTS” AND ALEX JURADO SCANDAL

@TheTradCath (aka “The Unapologetic Apologist,” hereafter TUA), who apparently has firsthand knowledge of the facts, posted this video explanation on his Instagram account earlier today (sometime after @VOR_Tweets released his statement): https://t.co/qIWpCyfKm0

Since I know nothing about “Wretched Saints” (real name = Jerett), my primary interest is in TUA’s testimony regarding Jurado:

“What I know to be true as of right now: Alex met a 16-year-old girl when he was either 19 or 20, back [on] January 1st of 2016. He was a catechist, she was in some sort of teen program in the church, but he was not her catechist — he had no direct role of authority over her — but he was older than her, like by three, maybe four years. ... Now, I’ve spoken to the victim directly, who has said she was 16 when they met, so the age of the victim at the time was 16. She told me that they had sex. Alex told someone else, who then told me, that they did not have sex at that age. So, Alex is not saying that they never had sex, but that they didn’t have sex at that age, according to my sources. The victim is claiming otherwise, so this is a detail that is still uncertain. As for the other text messages with adult women — stuff as recent as July of this year (earlier this month), saying really disgusting things — that’s all real. All of the screenshots that you have seen are real.”

After presenting the facts, TUA comments:

“Now, even if the girl was 16 and Alex and her didn’t have sex, that is still a horrible, scandalous thing to talk to a minor in that way. If they did have sex: horrible, scandalous. ... Alex should step back from Voice of Reason, due to these allegations.... As for Voice of Reason, he was already a Catholic while he was doing these things. He was already confirmed and he was doing them very, very recently as a public apologist. He has no position as an apologist anymore, as far as I’m concerned.”

Well said, TUA. I agree completely, which is why I once again urge @bpdflores of @CatholicRGV to investigate these matters and not allow a morally degenerate man to address a young adult conference in his diocese.

@sara_thoma59961 @majoriansmusing I should note that we're taking her word that she's a minor at the time of these texts. He's willing to take this to court, so we shall see whether that's the case.

@saintathanasia @FranciKern15 @Catholic_bro He's prepared to take this to the authorities and to court. I hope the truth comes out then!
Also waiting to see what Wretched Saints will put out in his upcoming video.

[Trent Barker @sackwhacker1]

@majoriansmusing @limbu97537 I'm being very careful as far as the age of the girl in the VOR allegations, or whether she was a minor. From what I've seen, VOR denied everything and is willing to take it to the authorities.

[Catholic Answers @catholiccom]

Alex Jurado (AKA Voice of Reason) has never been a staff member of Catholic Answers. He was an occasional guest on our radio program, Catholic Answers Live, and, like all our radio guests, he had a profile page on https://t.co/5qHanerQtf.

In light of the recent serious allegations about Alex, we have removed this profile from https://t.co/5qHanerQtf. We pray that the full truth may come to light, we pray for Alex, and we pray for everyone who may have been victimized, scandalized, or disedified by these reported events.

@limbu97537 For myself and more so those of us who are sceptical, how can we know that the receipts are genuine? Is it the same in the case of WS?

[Trent Barker @sackwhacker1]

@TumulTaffy @HippieReligious How come Paul got blocked but I didn't? I feel bad for the guy!

[Trent Barker @sackwhacker1]

@DianeKamer @majoriansmusing Feel free to take a break. I feel like it's only going to get worse for the rest of the week.

[Trent Barker @sackwhacker1]

@sara_thoma59961 @majoriansmusing Texts of a sexually explicit nature with a minor. He has the goods if you want to check it out.

[Trent Barker @sackwhacker1]

@majoriansmusing How much do you bench and overhead press? 😅
Just kidding, thanks for the great work and godspeed!

[Trent Barker @sackwhacker1]

@TheOtherPaul2 @BeardsonBeardly @FeelsGuy2003 Did she only block the more prominent listeners such as yourself? Because I was listening and she hasn't blocked me yet. Very concerning nevertheless and apologies!

[Trent Barker @sackwhacker1]

@limbu97537 I take it Lila Rose is a part of Catholic Inc.

[Trent Barker @sackwhacker1]

@Crossbearer77 And he's done an in-person Q&A session with WS.

@honorablesaint Remember to remove all skeletons from your closet and sort out your interior life! All the more applicable to clergy and people of influence!

[Trent Barker @sackwhacker1]

@Gamma_Pyramind @FatherChrisVor1 @metathomist Other Catholic 'influencers' they have met with have been told, but they've refused to do anything, mirroring the clergy's incompetence during the sex abuse scandal by covering things up.

[Trent Barker @sackwhacker1]

@Gamma_Pyramind @FatherChrisVor1 @metathomist So Voice of Reason, and another, Wretched Saints, have built a huge following here on Twitter and Youtube. Women have come out and leaked texts against both of them, which are sexually explicit in nature, and aggressively so in the latter case.
