think they are more likely to get away with things if they use the church as their cover.

Are you suggesting that the church is too lenient in who they let drive their cars or send them mail? Perhaps drug testing is in order.

If these stories were about priests trafficking in illegal drugs, there might be a comparison. But this is about criminals using the church to traffic in drugs. Quite another story.

But draw whatever conclusions best suit your narrative, AOR.
