Drug-Running Priest Did It for the Kids? Tuesday November 23 7:05 AM ET dailynews.yahoo.com SAO PAULO (Reuters) - A Brazilian priest caught with 11 kilos of cocaine hidden beneath his cassock told police he was trafficking the drugs to save a struggling day care center, local media said on Monday. Police caught Father Jorge Saliba trying to board a flight from Sao Paulo to Amsterdam in what the priest said was his fifth international drug run. Saliba said each delivery paid $30,000, money that he said went to a church-sponsored children's day-care center in Sao Paulo's poor urban neighborhood of Freguesia do O, the news wire Agencia Estado said. Brazil, while not a major drug-producing nation, is sometimes used as a way station by smugglers trying to get drugs to rich markets. In a federal probe underway here, a long list of prominent officials were implicated last week in drug-trafficking, including a well-known university professor and the former president of a local soccer team.
