S2 Ep12: Sister Cathy, The Maskell Paradox
In this episode of "Sister Cathy," Dr. Lee Richmond takes us through the enigmatic tale of Father Joseph Maskell, a character mired in complexity and contradiction. As a former professor of education at Loyola University Maryland, Dr. Richmond brings to the table her profound insights into the psyche of this man who was both a religious leader and a manipulative predator.
The conversation delves into Dr. Richmond's personal recollections of Maskell, providing a contrasting image of the persona he presented to the world—a learned and seemingly compassionate counselor, against the backdrop of the heinous acts he is alleged to have committed. This juxtaposition of "Good Joe" with "Bad Joe" paints a vivid picture of the duality that Maskell embodied and the confounding aura that he cast around those who thought they knew him.
As Gemma Hoskins and Shane Waters navigate this discussion with Dr. Richmond, listeners will be invited to reflect on the alarming potential for evil to reside behind a mask of virtue. Dr. Richmond's expertise in school counseling and psychology offers an invaluable perspective on how Maskell's authoritative position enabled his dark side to flourish unnoticed for so long.
