CMTV: The Gonzalez Story Something Doesn't Add Up!

So the CMTV has gone back to the Michael Gonzalez wishing well.  Still hoping for something to stick.

The Gonzalez story is a sad one, but it is important to know the difference between what we know and what we believe.

After reading Sarah's story, I know what she claims, I do disbelieve them ... I don't find them credible.

Why?

Because there are a number of contradictions and incredulous statements made and when compared with other statements more contradictions start to emerge.

It is very hard to keep a story consistent when it isn't based on directly observed events.  It is even harder to keep it together when it is simply stories (perhaps lies) related over the decades.

It becomes practically impossible to maintain consistency when a number of people start trying to protect their perspective of reality, a perspective that may warped.

I did some fact checking of this latest story I now know that a Mario Gonzalez age 70 has an outstanding warrant , issued in 2014, for his arrest in Pottawatomie County.  This warrant is consistent with the allegations recently made by one of his daughters to CMTV.

Assuming that there aren't more than one Mario Gonzalez associated with Traditional Catholicism in the St. Mary's area, I believe that in 2013 he was associated with FSSP, and sang Christmas carols at a fund raiser.  Maybe CMTV will accuse them of sheltering perverts next.

The story has been told multiple times by multiple people and the threads are now intersecting and enabling me to put some things together, ask some pertinent questions and make an inference.

1. Kurt Chione claimed that in spring of 1990 Michael Gonzalez said "he hurt me"but wouldn't say who.  Later he claimed it was Fr. Angles.

2. His family members claimed that they saw a change in Michael near the end of his 8th grade year (May 1989) and that he dropped out in grade 9 (1990). 

3. Fr. Angles arrived in St. Mary's in July 1989.

4.  Michael, according to the drivers license, was born on July 23, 1974 and Sarah was the 4th oldest sibling.  Meaning that in fall 1989 Michael was 15 years old and Sarah would be around 10.

5. Now we have Sarah's claim that:
We were born into this, a multi-generational plague of incestuous and psychopathic behaviors.
6. We also have her claim that:
Michael was just part of that bargain. Father Angles was offered impunity by my father to steal our beloved Michael's virtue.
Something doesn't add up.

Exactly when and where did the alleged assault take place?

Did Mr. Chione really go to the police?

Are there other possible explanations for these events?

These are questions that CMTV should have asked, especially as they were doing an 'investigation'.

Key items that  popped out of the various Gonzalez narrative are:

a. Michael's behaviour changed before Fr. Angles arrived.
b. A suicide note is mentioned by Mr.Chione and letters by the family but these appear to have been destroyed in a house fire.
Goodman said Michael had written “a lot of letters about what had happened” and that “he named Angles several times.” But the family’s house in St. Marys burned down a few years after Michael’s death, she said, and everything in it was destroyed.(KCS)
c. The Gonzalez family was obviously troubled as noted in #5.
d. It is highly unlikely that Sarah has first-hand knowledge of the allegation made in #6 and this allegation seems inconsistent #2.

My conclusions are:

1. It is possible something happened to Michael before Fr. Angles arrived.
2. Given the allegations laid against his father this may be the real cause behind his change of  behaviour.
3. The allegations against Fr. Angles are simply a part of a stories web in which that family was caught up.

Rome and SSPX - Version 2026 Part 2

 + JMJ Part 2 Detailed Synopsis and Timeline (ChatGPT) At this point, I took the shortcut of uploading all of my previous links and the latest SSPX and Rome links to ChatGPT. This way we’ll see how ChatGPT interprets the world as presented on the internet. P^3 Briefing Memo Subject: Rome–SSPX Relations and Planned Episcopal Consecrations (July 1, 2026) Prepared for: Ecclesial / Academic / Media Briefing Date: February 2026 Issue Overview The Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) has announced its intention to consecrate new bishops on July 1, 2026 , potentially without a papal mandate . The Holy See has acknowledged ongoing talks with the SSPX and stated its desire to avoid rupture, but has not granted approval nor outlined canonical consequences. The situation revives unresolved tensions dating to 1988 and raises questions about schism, authority, and doctrinal continuity. Background Founded in 1970 by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, the SSPX seeks to preserve pre-Vat...

Schism

There is some question as to whether the Pope can be in actual schism as per the Cardinal Torquemada: Citing the doctrine of Pope Innocent III, Torquemada further teaches:  "Thus it is that Pope Innocent III states [De Consuetudine] that, it is necessary to obey the Pope in all things as long as he, himself, does not go against the universal customs of the Church, but should he go against the universal customs of the Church, 'he need not be followed' . . . " [Cited from A Theological Vindication of Roman Catholic Traditionalism, Father Paul Kramer, B.Ph., S.T.D., M. Div. (2nd edition, St. Francis Press, India) p. 29. The full quotation from Cardinal Torquemada reads, "By disobedience, the Pope can separate himself from Christ despite the fact that he is head of the Church, for above all, the unity of the Church is dependent on its relationship with Christ. The Pope can separate himself from Christ either by disobeying the law of Christ, or by commanding som...

SSPX / DICI: Communiqué of the General House of the Society of St. Pius X concerning the episcopal consecration of Fr. Jean-Michel Faure.

+ JMJ The following is the communiqué of the SSPX regarding the Bishop Williamson's consecration of Fr. Faure. As a follow-up to this article ,  I would like to highlight the rationale for denouncing the consecration. Communiqué of the General House of the Society of St. Pius X concerning the episcopal consecration of Fr. Jean-Michel Faure. On March 19, 2015, Bishop Richard Williamson performed the episcopal consecration of Fr. Jean-Michel Faure at the Benedictine Monastery of the Holy Cross in Nova Friburgo, Brazil. Bishop Williamson and Fr. Faure have not been members of the Society of St. Pius X since 2012 and 2014, respectively, because of their violent criticisms of any relations with the Roman authorities. According to them, such contacts were incompatible with the apostolic work of Archbishop Lefebvre.(1) The Society of St. Pius X regrets sincerely that this spirit of opposition has led to an episcopal consecration. In 1988 Archbishop Lefebvre had c...

Bishop Huonder, SSPX in Schism? - Nope, Consecration of Holy Oils - Update 1

 + JMJ  So Bishop Huonder is in the news for two reasons.  First, his 'Testimony' concerning Pope Francis etc. This was received as a nice reinforcement by Trads (SSPX and others).  Of course, there are those that now are demanding an apostolic investigation.  Yawn, been here before.  This was predictable as other bishops who have followed the same path came to the same conclusions.  It is the way. Second, he celebrated the Chrism Mass and blessed the Holy Oils for use in the SSPX's European chapels and ceremonies.  This caused a stir amongst some Trads who are locked in one or the other statements made by either Archbishop Lefebvre or others. I received two versions of a question regarding this event: Hi Tradical Do you have any comments about doubtful oils in SSPX europe by +Huonder (NO Bishop not conditionally consecrated)? God Bless Hi Tradical Any thoughts on Huonder oil, not conditionally ordained and consecrated by SSPX bishops? God Bless M...
