A holy man who has been attacked by the evil one. I so ashamed of unholy sinful acts by unrepentant men when i hear this story... we all sin and fall short of the glory of God, but to not repent, to not make right, I am so upset....

Fr. Leatherby is an amazing, holy, gifted priest. Our Lord told us, "By their fruits, you will know them." The fruits Father Leatherby produced in his parish and the community were absolutely incredible. He is a true force for good, and as such, I believe he is being persecuted like St. Pio. 2.5 years is too long to keep him off the battlefield. Let him fight!! The fruits of this investigation show nothing but rot and poison. The negative effect on the souls in this diocese and the Church have been tremendous.

Please expedite your process Bishop Soto. I have been so sad and worried for so long, wondering what happened to Father Jeremy Leatherby. He is a Gem and so special to the church and he brought Presentation Parish so much joy and guidance and truly extraordinary homilies. I truly believe that Father Leatherby deserves to be restored right back to where he belongs, Presentation Parish. I'm keeping Father Leatherby in my daily prayers for restoration from this injustice.

I have known this family 25 years. Fr Jeremy, I am sure, is innocent, and suffering like St Pio did.

Bishop Soto This is beyond unacceptable. Two and half years? Not one more dime to the Diocese until you truly clean your house. Stop persecuting faithful orthodox priests and protecting homosexual ones.

The Gestapo tactics of the hierarchy of the Catholic Church has got to come to a halt. If this means cutting the funds to the Church then so be it!

This situation is a travesty. Stop wasting money on your PR campaign and clean up the mess in your diocese! Stop persecuting Fr. Leatherby and stop protecting the gay subculture in your clergy!

I searched for nearly a year and half going to various churches throuhout the Sacramento valley I attended Presentation Parish And listened, watched and observed FR.Jeremy Leatherby I knew then I had found the church That reflected the TRUE roots and values of the Catholic Church. It is Unfortunate that FR. leatherby has Been removed with what seems to be unsubstantiated claims . And lack of obvious due process of the church being followed. Please reinstate FR. Leatherby So there can be closure and The potential of reestablishing Faith in the diocese of Sacramento.
