Duddy was one of the first to speak up when priests who abused kids were being labeled as homosexuals. When Seattle had a classic case of this and the priest died, the gay community and Dignity helped to stage one of the largest funerals they could.  Then all of the gays and Dignity members quietly walked away after this spectical became front page news. Jaeger at one time was a presider for Dignity masses which were held at St. Joseph Church at the time. Later some of the Dignity members broke away and held their celebrations weekly in a Protestant Church (while several gays still quietly gathered at St. Joe's every Sunday for their mass).  Jaeger came across as a very welcoming priest to the gay community but he also had a history of previous abuse. Dignity and the gay community seemed to wink and look the other way at what he did several years earlier. Duddy always likes to chime in when it comes to gay priests and the Vatican, maybe she should try silence and some prayer.
