[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Phoenix Bishop finally arrested today-but not before innocent man dies.

Longtime protector of pedophiles Bishop Thomas O'Brian was arrested today, but not for any charges you might expect.

Instead he murdered a man with his automobile and then ran and hid from police. Toxicology tests are being done to determine if he was intoxicated at the time.

Investigators say O'Brien was behind the wheel of a tan Buick Park Avenue that struck and killed Jim L. Reed, 43, at 8:35 p.m. Saturday on Glendale Avenue just west of 19th Avenue.

According to Maricopa County Superior Court records, O'Brien did not contact police about the accident after a fellow priest informed him Sunday night that detectives were looking for him and the vehicle. On Monday morning, the bishop made phone inquiries about replacing his damaged windshield before police confronted him.

When first questioned, O'Brien told officers he was driving the car Saturday and thought he hit a dog or cat or someone threw a rock at his car, according to court records

The amazingly simple judge, in spite of the Bishops obvious access to means of fleeing the country, set bail at only $45,000 dollars!

It's very simple & straightforward:

"Do as I say, not as I do."
