When told of priest who had nude pics, bishop said "Boys will be boys"

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Bishop Robert Finn's response when told about nude pictures found on Rev. Shawn Ratigan's computer was reportedly, "Boys will be boys," according to court documents filed on Thursday.

The documents cited the August 17 deposition of Julie Creech, the IT director for the Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph. In the deposition, she described confronting Finn about the naked images of young girls she found on Ratigan's computer.

"Finn did indicate that...sometimes priests do things they shouldn't," Creech said in the deposition. "He said, 'Sometimes boys will be boys.'"

She was deposed for a civil case filed in Jackson County by the parents of one of the girls Ratigan was charged with photographing and abusing.
