Hope Carter leads Malta Youth Pilgrimage - removed child abuser's computer....

UPDATE

She has vilified and abandoned child sex abuse victims in Haiti, but Hope Carter has been chosen by Order of Malta leaders to lead a Youth Pilgrimage to Lourdes.

See story below:

PREVIOUSLY REPORTED

In the summer of 2008, Catholic Order of Malta leader, Hope Carter, embezzled two personal computers out of Haiti that belonged to alleged child molester, Douglas Perlitz.

There can be no doubt that the person identified as BM#1 in the new Perlitz federal arrest warrant is New Canaan, CT resident and long time Order of Malta leader, Hope Carter.

See page 8 of the arrest warrant: (http://bit.ly/a3Iw8i)

In addition, there can be no doubt that Rev. Paul Carrier, S.J., former Campus Ministry Director at Fairfield University, is identified in the same Perlitz arrest warrant as BM#2 (BM means Board Member).

The information contained in the new arrest warrant regarding Perlitz's computers is much more detailed than in the previous indictments.

It is noteworthy that Hope Carter is listed as a member of Project Pierre Toussaint's Board of Directors in the Haiti Fund's tax return for the period ending June 30, 2007, but is not listed as a Board member a year later in the tax return for the reporting period ending June 30, 2008.

Carter's absence from the Haiti Fund Board at the end of June 2008 coincides with the information contained in the arrest warrant.

In September 2008, Carter, along with fellow Connecticut Order of Malta leaders, Jeannie and Tom Tisdale, Madeline and Phillip Lacovara, and Jesuit priest, Rev. Paul Carrier, S.J. signed a letter to donors in which they defended Perlitz's innocence and disparaged the remaining Board members who voted to remove Perlitz as the Project's director due to credible and substantiated reports of child sex abuse brought against Perlitz. Funds soon dried up and the school was forced to close.

In May 2010, Joseph Miller of New Canaan, CT, the current President of the American Malta Association, presented Hope Carter with a "Humanitarian Award" for her service to the children of Haiti during a ceremony held at the annual Order of Malta pilgrimage to Lourdes, France.

In the 18 months since the school was forced to close, President Joseph Miller and the American Malta Association have not lifted one finger to bring aid and comfort to the victims of child sex abuse in Haiti who were abandoned and called liars by Miller's Malta colleagues in Connecticut. In March, Miller vacationed for a month in Florida, paying no attention whatsoever to the plight of the hungry and homeless abuse victims.

https://www.maltausa.org/worldwide_mission.php...What distinguishes the Knights of Malta is their commitment to reaching their spiritual perfection within the Church and to expending their energies serving the poor and the sick.

The Order of Malta remains true to its inspiring principles, summarised in the motto "Tuitio Fidei et Obsequium Pauperum", defence of the Faith and assistance to the poor and the suffering, which become reality through the voluntary work carried out by Dames and Knights in humanitarian assistance and medical and social activities. Today the Order carries out these activities in over 120 countries.
