FOX’s “BONES” Blames Reformers
I’ve rarely watched Fox’s “Bones” mystery series for more than a few minutes. But zipping through last night, I noticed it seemed to involve clergy abuse, so I stayed. And I was utterly appalled by the way it turned out.
The main plot woven in among all the silly on-going themes seemed to be about a murdered priest found in a graveyard. There were several dead priests, actually, and the cemetery business was some unrelated graverobbing that was quickly solved. Turns out, though, that one had been rumored to be a pedophile, despite the pretty altar boy’s strenuous claims that their personal interest in him was purely platonic though he knew everyone thought otherwise. The lab showed that the croaked clerics had been poisoned, and one bludgeoned with a chalice for good measure also (!).
