Fr. Ignacio Llorente - 3rd Sunday of Lent - John 4:5-42

When Jesus is questioned about terrible events that happened to others, he turned the question back on the questioners. He saw the heart of their question came out of presumption that they were not as bad as the others that these terrible things had happened to. How do his words lead us to know a path away from presumption and guide us into true salvation through Jesus?Image: James Tissot, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons.

Episode 57 Wired for Truth: The Art & Science of Polygraphs The polygraph test: We've all seen it used in popular movies, but what is it the truth behind how it's used in the criminal justice system? Jerry Lewis, a retired New Jersey State Police lieutenant who's been administering polygraphs since 1981, joins host Matt Adams to peer inside the mechanics of the test. They explore the science at work in a polygraph machine and the art of questioning a subject — and how to identify when someone is lying without a polygraph. Jerry also addresses criticisms of the polygraph, defends his opinion on forced confessions and discloses the role he played in catching the killer of Megan Kanka, the namesake of Megan's Law.

Episode 56 A Strategic Gamble: The Risks, Costs and Rewards of Going to Trial Statistics weigh heavily against defendants in the criminal justice system. Only 0.4% were acquitted after trial in federal cases during fiscal year 2022. In this latest podcast episode, host Matt Adams is joined by firm colleague Patrick Egan, whom Matt describes as “the type of trial lawyer you go to when your only option is to roll the dice and go to trial taking a shot against all odds.” Patrick, a Fox Partner and Chair Emeritus of the firm's White-Collar Criminal Defense & Regulatory Compliance Practice, discusses how he navigates clients through the decision to go to trial and shares his insights into the political and procedural reasons why statistics favor prosecutors. Patrick also recounts the details of one of his most high-profile acquittals involving a Philadelphia politician innocent of the charges lobbied against him.

Episode 55 The Power of the Presidential Pardon: Traditions and Turning Points Recent presidential pardons by both sides of the political aisle are unprecedented in their purposes, which were wielded both to reward and protect. That's according to Rachel Barkow, Charles Seligson Professor of Law and Faculty Director of the Zimroth Center on the Administration of Criminal Law at New York University School of Law. A prolific author who is recognized as one of the country's leading experts on criminal law and policy, Rachel joins host Matt Adams for a timely discussion exploring the historical use of presidential pardons, the standard vetting process for requests and how the pardons issued in January by the both the outgoing and incoming presidents diverge from traditional uses of the power. They also speculate on how — and if — the process could change in the future, should a president have the interest in altering authority granted by the Constitution.

Second Part of the Second Part, Question 21, Articles 1 & 2; Article 1: Whether Presumption Regards God's or Our Own Power; Article 2: Whether Presumption is a Sin

In this part of the Pilgrim's Progress, we find Christian on the path to salvation, burdened by the weight of his sins, until he reaches the cross where his burden is miraculously lifted. This poignant moment of transformation is marked by the arrival of three shining ones, who bring him peace, new garments, and a sealed scroll to guide him on his journey. As Christian continues his pilgrimage, he encounters various characters embodying the spiritual pitfalls of life. He meets Simple, Sloth, and Presumption, who remain asleep in their chains, refusing the help offered by Christian. He also encounters Formalist and Hypocrisy, who have taken shortcuts on their journey, bypassing the gate of salvation. Through these interactions, Christian learns the importance of entering the path through the proper means and the dangers of straying from the true way. The narrative brings us to the foot of the Hill of Difficulty, where Christian refreshes himself at a spring before ascending the steep path. Unlike the other travelers who choose easier paths leading to danger and destruction, Christian perseveres, understanding that the path to eternal life is often fraught with challenges. Join us as we reflect on the rich symbolism and spiritual insights in this timeless story, exploring themes of redemption, perseverance, and the transformative power of faith.

Episode 53 Diagnosis: Innocent – A Doctor's Journey to Acquittal For six and a half years, Dr. Muhamad Aly Rifai, a physician from Easton, Pa., lived in fear and anxiety that life as he knew it was over. A leader in telehealth psychiatric services since the early 2000s, Dr. Rifai was charged with fraudulently billing more than $1 million to Medicare, stemming from his practice treating elderly patients in a rural area. In this episode, Dr. Rifai describes his harrowing experience to host Matt Adams. It could be a tale straight from a television show, featuring a government raid by agents carrying automatic weapons, an early morning call from the local SWAT team lieutenant and a key government witness who crumbled under cross-examination on the stand. Dr. Rifai also imparts words of wisdom for anyone who may find themselves in a similar situation, and details how he combatted fierce pressure by the government — and his own attorney — to plead guilty.

When Peter overconfidently said to Jesus “I am ready” he stepped into the area of presumption that God wants all of us to avoid.

Episode 52 Engineered for Injustice: How Coerced Pleas Trap the Innocent Rodney Roberts was given a total of 25 minutes to make a life-altering decision. In custody, isolated from family and advised by a public defender to plead guilty to lesser charges in a crime he did not commit, Rodney succumbed to fear and pressure, and agreed to the terms. In this wrenching episode, Rodney joins host Matt Adams and defense attorney Tim Gumkowski of the Innocence Project to share his personal story of coercion into a guilty plea and the years of his life he lost as a result, trapped in a system that refused to acknowledge its mistake. Now a reentry coach with the Innocence Project, Rodney was ultimately exonerated after serving 18 years — including 10 years civilly committed in a facility after the attorney general filed a petition citing delusion and psychosis in response to Rodney's repeated assertions of innocence. You'll hear Rodney explain his emotional turmoil as he was coerced into the guilty plea and how his experience drives his work today with the Innocence Project. Matt and Tim also dig into the structural flaws of the criminal justice system that fuel this fire of coerced plea agreements and explore whether ways exist to extinguish them.

Episode 51 A Higher Duty of Care: Representing Clients Living With Mental Illness The defense of clients experiencing mental health issues is one of the most challenging and nuanced aspects of criminal law. An estimated one-third to one-half of incarcerated individuals live with some form of mental illness and often find themselves at the mercy of a criminal justice system that offers little relief or recourse. Elizabeth Kelley, a New York City criminal defense lawyer, joins host Matt Adams to explain how attorneys can best advocate for and represent clients who experience mental illness. Elizabeth, who is also the editor of the ABA-published book Representing People With Mental Disabilities: A Practical Guide for Criminal Defense Lawyers, explores the hurdles that criminal defense attorneys can encounter as they strive to secure optimal outcomes for their clients. In a compassionate conversation based on their personal experiences representing clients who experience mental illness, Elizabeth and Matt discuss the afflictions most prevalent among those traversing the criminal justice system, including juveniles and veterans. They also detail the critical role played by a forensic mental health expert, who is best equipped to assess a defendant's competency and sanity according to their legal definitions.

Sexual assault survivors are often allowed to proceed anonymously during court trials for several reasons, primarily aimed at protecting their privacy, safety, and well-being:Reducing Trauma: Testifying about sexual assault can be an incredibly traumatic experience for survivors. Allowing them to proceed anonymously can help reduce the additional stress and trauma associated with public exposure and scrutiny.Protecting Privacy: Anonymity shields survivors from unwanted public attention and intrusion into their personal lives. It allows them to maintain a level of privacy and control over their own narrative.Encouraging Reporting: Fear of public exposure can deter survivors from reporting sexual assault or seeking justice. Anonymity can help encourage survivors to come forward and participate in legal proceedings without the fear of being publicly identified and stigmatized.Ensuring Safety: In some cases, survivors may fear retaliation or harassment from the accused or their supporters. Anonymity can provide an added layer of protection and help ensure the safety of the survivor and their loved ones.However, there are also potential problems that may arise from allowing an accuser to remain anonymous:Fairness to the Accused: Anonymity for the accuser can raise concerns about fairness in the legal process. It may limit the accused's ability to fully defend themselves if they cannot know the identity of their accuser or access potentially relevant information about them.Presumption of Innocence: Anonymity may undermine the principle of "innocent until proven guilty" by creating an imbalance in the perception of the case. The accused may face increased scrutiny and presumption of guilt, especially in the absence of transparency regarding the accuser's identity.Potential for False Accusations: Without the accuser's identity being disclosed, there may be concerns about false accusations going unchallenged. Anonymity could make it more difficult for the accused to present evidence or witnesses that could refute the allegations.Impact on Public Confidence: Anonymity can sometimes lead to skepticism or distrust in the legal process, as it may be perceived as favoring one party over the other. This could affect public confidence in the fairness and integrity of the judicial system.In this episode we get a look at the Judge's order denying the request to proceed anonymously for the duration of the proceedings.(commercial at 15:59)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.611545.49.0.pdf (courtlistener.com)

Episode 50 Hidden in Plain Sight: How Kleptocrats Exploit U.S. Financial Systems The shadowy finances that fueled the 9/11 terrorist attacks cut a somber scar into America. Despite the anti-money laundering initiatives woven in the Patriot Act, that wound continues to fester, according to Casey Michel, who suggests U.S. federal and state systems make America a cooperative collaborator in the money laundering schemes of kleptocrats. Casey, author of American Kleptocracy: How the U.S. Created the World's Greatest Money Laundering Scheme in History and Director of the Combating American Kleptocracy Program at the Human Rights Foundation, joins host Matt Adams for the show's landmark 50th episode. Matt and Casey start their discussion focused on how corrupt foreign leaders launder the wealth expropriated from their home countries in the traditional offshore outlets. They then explain how those kleptocrats have legally infiltrated America — from small towns in the Midwest to oceanfront urban metropolises — with shell companies promising revitalization and development but often leaving dilapidated buildings and distressed communities instead. What legal and legislative measures are required to challenge these actions? Matt and Casey explore all that and more in this insightful episode

In 2022, 39% of 18- to 24-year-olds in the United States were enrolled in college or graduate school. The total cost of attendance for a four-year degree includes tuition and fees, room and board, books, supplies, and other expenses. In 2022-2023, the average annual cost of attendance for first-time, full-time undergraduate students was:  Private nonprofit institutions: $58,600+ Private for-profit institutions: $33,600+ Public institutions: $27,100+ Most students borrow money to attend college, with the average federal student loan debt being $37,850. The standard repayment plan for federal student loans lasts 10 years, but the average student borrower spends closer to 20 years paying off their loans.  The median annual salary for a college graduate with a bachelor's degree is around $77,636.. (after 4 years and an average debt of $38K) This is the context for a discussion with a retired tradesman, Dennis Hamon. Dennis successfully sold his plumbing business a few years back and since that time has been serving his industry through the Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, Contractors Association. (PHCC). He himself was that 18 year old kid who was always dreaming and always learning, but was not attracted to formal education. He was one of the 61% who did not go to college. Instead he was mentored and apprenticed by tradespeople that helped shape his character and work ethic. And it eventually led him to building a successful practice. Now he has a podcast, “Dennis the Apprentice” that is intended to be one of the vehicles that allows him to keep investing in the next generation of plumbers. He is also on the board of directors of the national PHCC and is helping shape the growth trajectory of the PHCC Academy, a comprehensive contractor life cycle education model beginning with workforce development. Through the great conversation, he helps us understand the risks and opportunities in the plumbing industry. These will serve the next generation of plumbers represented by those 18 year old kids who have been taught to believe the only way to a quality life, a $100,000 annual salary and professional career development is through a 4 year degree. If you love to learn, are accountable, love to help people, and fix problems that are important to them, then this might be the profession for you. And you get paid to learn it with many companies offering compensation based on your performance. Plumbing services professionals are the doctors of the home. Educated, certified, professionally licensed, and well compensated. And they don't spend 4 years to get a $50,000 job with a $50,000 debt hanging over them. Enjoy this discussion with a great entrepreneur, and statesman.

True Crime Tuesday presents: NYPD: Presumption & Dysfunction with Retired New York City Police Detective/Author, Vic Ferrari! Unlike the 1973 classic by Emerson, Lake, & Palmer, the New York City Police Department doesn't want you to have a look inside. They'd prefer you stay away and not ask questions. From fudging crime statistics to clueless cronies landing in coveted positions, everything is par for the course in America's largest police department. You only call 911 when you have a problem. From a double-parked car to the dead guy in the apartment, cops are expected to have all the answers. Unfortunately, there is no crystal ball to consult, just an outdated, eight-inch-thick NYPD patrol guide. When that fails, it's time to get creative. Hopefully, the remedy you choose won't come back to haunt you. The moment you take the oath to protect and serve, you realize the job is not on the level. What happens behind the scenes at the New York City Police Department is unbelievable.  Retired NYPD detective Vic Ferrari takes you behind the blue wall of silence, exposing the hijinks and hypocrisy of the New York City Police Department. Whether it's a cokehead cop in a bathroom stall or a catfight over a spouse's paycheck, there's never a dull moment in NYPD: Presumption & Dysfunction.

What happens when a wealthy business owner disappears without a trace, leaving behind a tangled web of allegations, destroyed property, and unanswered questions? Join us as we explore this real-life mystery with expert insights from barrister and solicitor Michael Mulligan of Mulligan Defence Lawyers. We journey through the intricacies of the Presumption of Death Act, examining a case where millions in life insurance hinge on the final determination of a man's fate. From the eerie aftermath of a fire in his airplane hangar to the bizarre silence of his bank accounts, the case presents a fascinating puzzle full of legal and investigative challenges.The episode takes an unexpected twist as we navigate the legal repercussions that arise if someone presumed dead were to reappear while also dissecting the nuances of Canadian law concerning police interrogations and the right to counsel. We also delve into a Court of Appeal case that revisits a first-degree murder trial due to the mishandling of a confession, emphasizing the critical importance of voluntariness in legal proceedings. Through these complex legal landscapes, listeners gain a deeper understanding of how justice is pursued and the vital role of law in unravelling mysteries. Tune in for a thought-provoking episode that promises to leave you with more questions than answers.Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discssed. 

Read OnlineSomeone asked him, “Lord, will only a few people be saved?” He answered them, “Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I tell you, will attempt to enter but will not be strong enough.” Luke 13:27We should definitely take our Lord's words spoken above to heart. It's easy to presume we will be saved. It's easy to simply presume that God is kind and that we are good people at heart and, therefore, salvation is assured. But that's not what Jesus says.So who will be saved? When we get to Heaven, God willing, we may be surprised at who is saved and who is not. This is clearly one of the messages of today's Gospel. Jesus even goes so far to say that some, when they die, will assume they are going to enter into Heaven but will hear our Lord say to them, “I do not know where you are from. Depart from me, all you evildoers!” Again, we should take these words to heart.One of the most dangerous sins we can fall into is presumption. Presumption is deadly because it has a double effect upon us. First, the person caught in presumption is one who has committed mortal sin but has not repented of it. But the presumptuous person also remains incapable of repentance because they refuse to acknowledge their sin. Their conscience is not working. They have blinders on and expect God to wear those same blinders. But God sees all things and judges accordingly.The “narrow gate” of which Jesus speaks is a simile used by Jesus to tell us that it is not easy to obtain Heaven. It requires a concerted effort on our part as well as the infinite mercy of God. But regarding our part, the attainment of Heaven is only possible if we intentionally seek out the will of God and respond generously to Him. First, that means we confess and turn away from our sins. But from there, it means that we make every effort to fulfill God's will in our lives.If this is hard to accept, simply remind yourself that this teaching came directly from Jesus Himself. He is absolutely clear and means what He says. If that fills you with a sort of holy fear, then that is a good thing. “Holy fear” is a gift by which we have a well-ordered conscience that is able to identify those things in our lives that have become immovable obstacles to eternal salvation. The same well-ordered conscience will lead us to that narrow gate which is the only path to eternal life. Reflect, today, upon the fact that we must all take eternal salvation seriously. If you find that you have become lax in your spiritual life, then use this Gospel as a motivation to change. Do not allow yourself to be one of those knocking at the gates of Heaven, only to realize that our Lord does not know you. Do all you can to eradicate the sin of presumption from your life, and your reward will be truly great in Heaven.My most merciful Lord, You and You alone can open the gates of Heaven to us, and You and You alone will do so only to those who have responded to Your holy will. Please open my eyes to any ways that I turn from You and remain lax in my spiritual journey. Give me the grace I need to see clearly and to respond to You with all my heart. Jesus, I trust in You.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2024 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

Could you and your care team be at risk when you upgrade a patient from observation to inpatient simply because the patient passed a second midnight in the hospital, based on the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) contentious Two-Midnight Rule?And what about the expectation? How does expectation enter this equation? And finally, what should be present to change that expectation?During the next live edition of Monitor Mondays, Ben Kartchner, MD, a prominent physician advisor, will thread the needle of this controversial regulation to give his perspective on how the two-midnight expectation can serve as your compass, helping you steer through regulatory challenges, ensure compliance, and prevent unnecessary denials.Other segments during the weekly Internet broadcast will include these instantly recognizable features:• Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, MD, vice president of R1 RCM, will be making his Monday Rounds.• The RAC Report: Healthcare attorney Knicole Emanuel, partner at the law firm of Nelson Mullins, will report the latest news about auditors.• Legislative Update: Cate Brantley, a senior government affairs liaison for Zelis, will report on current healthcare legislation.• Risky Business: Healthcare attorney David Glaser, shareholder in the law offices of Fredrikson & Byron, will join the broadcast with his trademark segment.

Sexual assault survivors are often allowed to proceed anonymously during court trials for several reasons, primarily aimed at protecting their privacy, safety, and well-being:Reducing Trauma: Testifying about sexual assault can be an incredibly traumatic experience for survivors. Allowing them to proceed anonymously can help reduce the additional stress and trauma associated with public exposure and scrutiny.Protecting Privacy: Anonymity shields survivors from unwanted public attention and intrusion into their personal lives. It allows them to maintain a level of privacy and control over their own narrative.Encouraging Reporting: Fear of public exposure can deter survivors from reporting sexual assault or seeking justice. Anonymity can help encourage survivors to come forward and participate in legal proceedings without the fear of being publicly identified and stigmatized.Ensuring Safety: In some cases, survivors may fear retaliation or harassment from the accused or their supporters. Anonymity can provide an added layer of protection and help ensure the safety of the survivor and their loved ones.However, there are also potential problems that may arise from allowing an accuser to remain anonymous:Fairness to the Accused: Anonymity for the accuser can raise concerns about fairness in the legal process. It may limit the accused's ability to fully defend themselves if they cannot know the identity of their accuser or access potentially relevant information about them.Presumption of Innocence: Anonymity may undermine the principle of "innocent until proven guilty" by creating an imbalance in the perception of the case. The accused may face increased scrutiny and presumption of guilt, especially in the absence of transparency regarding the accuser's identity.Potential for False Accusations: Without the accuser's identity being disclosed, there may be concerns about false accusations going unchallenged. Anonymity could make it more difficult for the accused to present evidence or witnesses that could refute the allegations.Impact on Public Confidence: Anonymity can sometimes lead to skepticism or distrust in the legal process, as it may be perceived as favoring one party over the other. This could affect public confidence in the fairness and integrity of the judicial system.Overall, while anonymity for sexual assault survivors serves important purposes in protecting their well-being and encouraging reporting, it's essential to balance these considerations with the rights of the accused and the principles of fairness and transparency in legal proceedings.In this episode, we get a look at the alleged underraged Jane Doe's motion to remain anonymous throughout the precedings.  (commercial at 9:43)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.611545.32.0_2.pdf (courtlistener.com)

“You shall worship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve.” Taking a look at the first commandment, we see how we are called to love and worship God above all else. The Catechism also lists the ways in which we may potentially fall into sins against faith, hope, and charity. Fr. Mike elaborates on these violations and reminds us that while it may seem overwhelming, God loved us first, and we must trust in him. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2083-2094. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

The main goal of the Society of Saint Pius X is to preserve the Catholic Faith in its fullness and purity, to teach its truths, and to diffuse its virtues, especially through the Roman Catholic priesthood. Authentic spiritual life, the sacraments, and the traditional liturgy are its primary means of bringing this life of grace to souls.

What people need is the Catholic Faith, without compromise, with all the truth and beauty which accompanies it. https://sspx.org
