"I want a public confession before I ever consider giving you absolution _ or a spot on your couch," wrote the Rev. David Ajemian, who signed the notes "Padre," said Barbara Thompson, a spokeswoman for the Manhattan district attorney's office. Ajemian, from the Archdiocese of Boston, was arrested last week while trying to enter a taping session of NBC's "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" at 30 Rockefeller Plaza, near where other NBC shows are taped and the famous Christmas tree is put up, Thompson said. Court papers say Ajemian referred to himself as "your priest stalker" in one note and complained of not being allowed in to see an earlier taping of the O'Brien show. "Is this the way you treat your most dangerous fans?" the note said. The letters and e-mails, which started coming in September 2006, continued even after Ajemian was asked to stop and were "intended to cause annoyance and alarm," Thompson said. The priest could face up to a year in prison if convicted on charges of aggravated harassment and stalking. Ajemian also has been in contact with O'Brien's parents, Thompson said. The priest and the late-night host may have attended Harvard University at the same time. O'Brien graduated in 1985, and Ajemian graduated from high school in 1979 before attending the Ivy League school, according to an alumni magazine published by his high school. The Archdiocese of Boston said in a statement that Ajemian had been placed on leave and was no longer allowed to minister publicly. O'Brien, a native of the Boston suburb of Brookline, Mass., has participated in fundraising activities for the archdiocese. An NBC spokesman said O'Brien was not commenting on the incident. A telephone message left Wednesday night at St. Mary-St. Catherine of Siena Church in Boston's Charlestown neighborhood, which Ajemian gave as his address, was not immediately returned.
finalsbound? BUT it also seems to me like someone framed the padre[/i]. IMHO, would the Padre really send the letters in the parish's letterhead? They're priests, not kids.
Y'know, when you hear him on TV sometimes, and you're not exactly paying attenton or are in the kitchen or somthing. If you listen to his voice closely at times he even talks or sounds like little kid middle or high school. It's perfect for some priest.
