Priest Accused of Stealing Parish Funds

A priest in Leawood is facing felony theft charges after allegedly stealing over $159,000 from parish funds—possibly as much as $600,000—using church credit cards for luxury trips, casino visits, personal shopping, and wellness expenses. Despite prior warnings from the Archdiocese, financial controls were ignored. The church is reeling, with the Archbishop calling the allegations “deeply painful,” while preparing an insurance claim to cover losses. Father Storey remains on house arrest with a court date set for July 15th. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
