Still I just wonder:

If Paolo Gabriele was merely an undercover investigator posing as a butler, he would be the hero because he discovered the "crimes" of the Vatican.

But because he was just a man with the same moral guidance to what is right and wrong as he would have if he happened to have become an investigator to go undercover . . .

SO.  If u get paid to lie and steal the information, you get paid.  If u r just a good person, go to jail.

Wrong-minded reality.  I hope Benedict pardons him.
