Grand jury probes archdiocese funds handling in Chicago
A federal grand jury is examining whether a $30,000 loan to a St. Louis couple tied to Cardinal Cody was made directly by the Archdiocese of Chicago and if the funds were used as a down payment on a home. The Sun Times notes the loan was repaid after two months and questions whether the repayment came from Mrs. Wilson, who has ties to Cody and reportedly benefits from a life policy. Cody and Mrs. Wilson deny wrongdoing, saying the charges are attacks on the church and scandalous. The investigation also flags unverified allegations of up to $1 million diverted from two church accounts.
