Cardinal Farrell at the Center of Lies, Criminality and Sexual Perversion

Irish-born Curia Cardinal Kevin Farrell has stated that during his tenure with the Legionaries of Christ, he "maybe would have met Maciel once or twice". But he "never suspected anything." The remarks were made in a 2016 interview with The Irish Times.

Farrell joined the Legionaries in 1966 and was ordained in 1978. Virtually any seminarian at that time has met the founder of the group more often than twice.

Former Legionaries have disputed Farrell's claim. Joseph Foley, for example, said that Farrell was among the seminarians who regularly interacted with Maciel, including playing dominoes with him.

Cardinal Farrell left the Legionaries in the early 1980s, citing "intellectual differences", and joined the Archdiocese of Washington in 1984.

In a 2018 interview with LaStampa.it, he declared that he had served as a the driver for Father Marcial Maciel during his frequent visits to Rome:

"During my years in the Legionaries of Christ I never saw or heard anything negative about Marcial Maciel... I was never that close to him. He used me as his driver when he visited the Vatican, but nothing else."

Farrell managed large amounts of money for the Legionaries and Washington Archdiocese where he was a close associate with the homosexual Cardinal Theodore McCarrick.

Farrell served under McCarrick as an auxiliary bishop in Washington D.C., from 2001 to 2007. Both lived in the same Washington residence for six years.

Eventually, Benedict XVI promoted him to bishop of Dallas in 2007 and Francis in 2016 made him the head of the Vatican's dicastery for the laity, and appointed him Camerlengo in 2019.

Speaking to Catholic News Service in July 2018, Farrell smirked directly into the camera for a split second and claimed about McCarrick's publically well-known homosexual abuses:

"I was shocked, overwhelmed. I never heard any of this before." There was "never, no indication, none, whatsoever". "Nobody ever talked to me about that," he added.

Cardinal Farrell further claimed that he "didn’t know Cardinal McCarrick prior to his coming to Washington DC."

The liar Farrell is among the voters for the next pope.

Additionally, Archbishop Carlo Viganò — who however has previously shared unverified allegations — stated on X.com that Farrell has a “notorious addiction to alcohol.”
