The number grew to five after two more parish priests quietly resigned about two weeks ago, diocese officials said Monday. The priests are 58-year-old Rev. Jim Hutzler pastor at St. Theresa’s Catholic Church in Panhandle, and 73-year-old Rev. Ed Graff, most recently pastor of churches in Silverton, Turkey and Quitaque. Diocesan officials said they are not sure why the men did not resign as quickly as the other priests. “They resigned a month after the charter; I don’t know exactly when they read it,” diocesan spokeswoman Cathy Lexa said in Tuesday’s editions of The Dallas Morning News. “It’s my understanding that a copy of the charter was sent out to every priest in the diocese by Bishop John Yanta after he returned from Dallas. ... “It’s only my speculation that they contemplated on the words as they read the charter and dealt within their own heart what was in their pasts. And I’m sure they took it to prayer, because I believe all these men are good men.” The sexual-abuse scandal in the U.S. Catholic Church has taken an especially heavy toll in the Texas Panhandle, where the resignations have worsened a shortage of parish priests.

Three woman testified Monday before the panel that 79th District Court Judge Terry Canales sexually harassed them. Canales is expected to present his case before the commission Tuesday afternoon. Rosario “Rosie” Hernandez, then an 18-year- old clerk in the Brooks County Courthouse, said Canales called her at home one night in February 2000. Trying to end the conversation, she told the judge she had to take a shower. The judge responded by making a sexually suggestive comment regarding the shower, Hernandez told the State Commission on Judicial Conduct, which monitors the state’s judiciary. Hernandez told the panel of six judges that some time later she went to Canales’ chambers and he asked for a hug. After accepting his embrace, he groped her and pressed himself against her, she said. Canales, who watched the testimony ii sively, is a four-term judge based in Alice. Frances Delgado, the daughter of Canales mer bailiff, and Liana Barrera, a former cleii Canales’ court, also accused him Monday of ing sexual advances. Barrera told Canales’ attorneys that she worked for him for three and a half years and once called him a “model boss.” She salt resigned because she could not get along - Canales’ office manager. After she told the judge she was resign! Barrera testified, Canales invited her chambers and asked her to reconsider.
