Charles Utter became a victim of corrupted authority when his own girlfriend was victimized by their ‘devout’ leader. In his chilling story about a small-town Catholic priest who was a con artist, fraudulent investor, and serial sex abuser, Charles courageously holds nothing back. She was one of possibly hundreds that were damaged by this religiously disguised master manipulator who used his power and position to engage in fraudulent business activities with the father of a US president while blackmailing his bishop to gain protection. He managed to acquire 12 hotels while he pretended to be living on his modest clerical salary. There he took advantage of women many of whom were vulnerable followers. In his jaw-dropping book Roman Collar Crime - The Transgressions of a Small-Town Priest, Charles exposes the dirty secrets of the product of the most powerful institution on the planet and the reason we need to radically change its leadership landscape. Charles is on a mission to influence a healthy redistribution of power that encourages a more transparent and collaborative faith environment. Charles A. Utter holds a bachelor’s degree in history from St. John’s University. He spent seven years teaching and coaching at the high school level before beginning a career in finance that would span nearly four decades. Utter currently lives in Denver, Colorado, with his wife, Phyllis. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/chefranjohn/support
