CAMDEN COUNTY, N.J. (WPVI) — An international fugitive wanted for multiple bank robberies in South Jersey has been taken into custody in Ukraine, the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office announced on Wednesday.

Edward Deveaux, 29, of Berlin Township, New Jersey, was apprehended on February 25 in Lviv, Ukraine, after years on the run.

Ukrainian authorities were working in collaboration with the U.S. Marshals Service to capture Deveaux.

Deveaux was charged on September 30, 2022, with two counts of robbery.

He is accused of robbing the Trust Bank in the 200 block of White Horse Pike in Waterford on September 22, 2022, as well as the Republic Bank in the 600 block of Berlin-Cross Keys Road in Winslow on September 28, 2022.

Investigators said they were able to identify Deveaux as their suspect after collecting surveillance video and other evidence.

During their investigations, a detective with the Camden Division of the U.S. Marshals Service learned that Deveaux had flown to multiple countries in Europe before ultimately going to Ukraine in the days after the Winslow bank robbery.

The Marshals Service then learned about Deveaux’s whereabouts in Lviv, Ukraine.

He is being held in a Ukrainian jail, pending extradition to the United States.

“The successful location and arrest of Edward Deveaux is a testament to the U.S. Marshals and our state and local partners’ unwavering dedication to bringing fugitives to justice, no matter where they run,” said Juan Mattos, U.S. Marshal for the District of New Jersey.

“Whether defendants flee over the Delaware River or across the Atlantic Ocean, we will continue to bring fugitives to justice through our partnership with the U.S. Marshals Service,” said Camden County Prosecutor Grace C. MacAulay.

“Catholics have been devastated by many bishops’ handling of priestly sexual abuse, for covering up that abuse and mistreating victims.

“We fear some money was spent for the undesignated end of aiding refugees. We also fear sufficient efforts were not made to vet those being admitted. As a result, we are aware that some 300,000 “lost” children may have fallen into the hands of sexual traffickers.

“We also object to the appointment of Cardinal McElroy to the Archdiocese of Washington D.C.; he is the poster boy of cover-up in the Church and of support for open borders.”

The Gospel for the First Sunday of Lent is the temptation of Christ in the desert. You have heard the story many times, and in case you have ever wondered, yes, Christ was really actually tempted. He was fully human, and experienced everything it means to be truly human (except sin; remember that sin is not part of our true nature, only our fallen nature). There is no sin in temptation. On the contrary, every temptation is an opportunity toward holiness. Vanquishing temptations is how we grow in sanctity.

The profundity of this comes to rest in the dichotomy between “Where sin abounded, grace did more abound,” (Rom 5:20) and “Lead us not into temptation,” (Matt 6:13, Luke 11:4). God never tempts us, in terms of enticement to evil. Only Satan does that. But God does allow temptation, obviously, in the form of trials. So while every temptation is intended to be an opportunity for greater holiness, it can also be an occasion for failure. Pretty high risk/reward dynamic going on here. But you have a rather healthy arsenal and delivery system at your disposal; the Creator of the Universe is at the ready to be unleashed with full fury. It’s your choice whether that fury be used to your benefit in persevering unto salvation, or be it used against you in His perfect justice. You’re not going to have any excuses at your Particular Judgement. Start practicing now.

Satan seeks an entry point. You’d better have your armor and armaments in place, or you are already toast. He attacks the weakest part of the fortress. He knows what he is doing. But God is in control, and God will never, ever, allow any more than you can handle. However strong the temptation, His grace is sufficient for you (2 Cor 12:9). Go to Him; wield that grace. Attack the temptation, not the demon. Every victory you secure is a reflection of Christ’s victory over death, and is indeed a type of participation in the Crucifixion and Resurrection.

How cool is that?

“IRE may be understood in two ways.

“In one way, as a simple movement of the will that inflicts punishment not through passion, but by virtue of a judgment of the reason: and in this case, without a doubt, lack of ire is a sin. This is how Chrysostom understands ire when he says: ‘Ire, when it has a cause, is not ire but judgment. For properly speaking, ire is a movement of passion. And when a man is irate with just cause, his ire does not derive from passion. Rather, it is an act of judgment, not of ire.”

“In another way, ire can be understood as a movement of the sensitive appetite agitated by passion with bodily excitation. This movement is a necessary sequel in man to the previous movement of his will, since the lower appetite naturally follows the movement of the higher appetite unless some obstacle prevents it. Hence the movement of ire in the sensitive appetite cannot be lacking altogether, unless the movement of the will is altogether lacking or weak. Consequently, the lack of the passion of ire is also a vice, as it is the lack of movement in the will to punish according to the judgment of reason.”

— St. Thomas Aquinas

(Blessed First Friday. Best to kick start your Lent now, if you’re off to a slow start. -nvp)

Former CDC Director under Trump has been dropping bombshells in interviews since November 2024, and most recently in a very revealing interview by Del Bigtree. Here are just a few of the bombshells from Redfield:

• COVID-19 “was engineered” in a lab
• Fauci was central to the development of the human-engineered virus, and 20 million deaths.
• Patients with long Covid really have mRNA vaccine injury
• Covid mRNA “vaccines” contain cancer-causing ingredients, e.g. SV40 and contaminating nucleic acids

The FDA also knows these jabs contain DNA contaminants because they confirmed it in their OWN lab studies at the White Oak Campus in Maryland. The “captured regulatory agency” never tested before, but after scientists around the world found DNA contaminants, FDA was forced to do their own study. What they found was shocking levels of DNA contamination exceeding the regulatory safety limits by 6 to 470 times.

Notice all the usual verbiage that we saw during CONvid: died “with” and not from.

https://abcnews.go.com/amp/Health/wireStory/new-mexico-adult-dies-measles-cause-death-confirmed-119530998

But don’t worry, there’s a “safe and effective vaccine” for this.

The MMR vaccine is neither safe nor effective. Plenty of anecdotal reports have poured in from gaslit parents who say their child’s neurological deficits or regression began in conjunction with the administration of the MMR vaccine. What’s more, the vaccine is ineffective in some people. I am one of them. Before I knew of the use of aborted fetal cell line in the creation of the MMR shot, I readily received a booster dose at age 18 when entering undergrad nursing school. As part of the admission process, I had blood drawn to check for immunity, and I was told I had none. A booster was given. Later, for an employment physical, I had the same issue. Another booster. Another upon entry to grad school. And another after my first pregnancy when I was told I again had no immunity. I’ve had more MMR boosters than I can count until in 2016 I said no more. Knowing what I know now, I recognize this shot is a failure on multiple levels. Not only does it contain dangerous adjuvants with toxic neurologic effects, it does not provide lifelong immunity (natural infection does), and as I said, in some people it fails to provide any immunity.

Yet, there is a now a national narrative attempting to create measles hysteria and drive an anti antivax agenda.

Don’t be fooled. Boost your immunity naturally and keep vitamin A on hand for any infection that does occur.

The real epidemic here is autism and chronic illnesses, especially autoimmune ones. I have a sneaking hunch that ALL the shots are manipulating our immune and endocrine systems in ways we do not understand while Big Pharma laughs all the way to the bank.

The picture above notes the absurdity of the childhood vaccination schedule and actually isn’t completely accurate since prenatal exposure to maternal flu, COVID, and RSV vaccines is not shown.

Can vitamin A help with measles mortality?

Posted on March 4, 2025 by Nurse Claire

If you are worried about measles infection in yourself or your family, consider this paper from the Cochrane Review, which seems to demonstrate that found that vitamin A can reduce mortality from the sequelae of measles infection.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7076287/

I am by no means suggesting anyone mega-dose on vitamin A in perpetuity. I am suggesting that if you, or a family member become ill, consider having some vitamin A on hand to take a few (two 200,000 IU) doses.

And as always I highly suggest making friends with a farmer near you who raises livestock that are pastured and free from hormones/mRNA/ antibiotics. Maintaining a clean diet will do wonders for the immune system. Pasture-raised pork from hogs who forage in the sunshine is very high in both vitamin D as well as vitamin A. Source your meat carefully and avoid the grocery stuff as much as you can.

May God bless you all on this Feast of the Holy Face. And may you have a spiritually fruitful Lent.

6 March 2025 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

A few years ago, I gave a talk at a conference in Napa Valley for a men’s group. It was a fine event with great guys. Two other priests spoke, Fr. David Jenuwine and Fr. Edward Looney. I was so grateful that I was the last speaker and not the first so that the poster did not read “Zuhlsdorf Jenuwine Looney”. It was the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary. The next day a fire swept through Napa. That night, in the hotel near the airport for my next day flight, it hit me. A severe, nearly paralyzing, burning stabbing pain seized my left shoulder and stabs up the side of my skull. It was so bad that all I could do was sit in a chair. Moving was agony. I had some pain killer with me and loaded it up in the morning in order to get home. I don’t know how I did it. That pain stuck with me for a long, except, it moved around. Sometimes lower in my back, sometimes sliding over to the right side. Sometimes worse, sometimes less bad, sometimes so bad I couldn’t raise the chalice at Mass and all I could do was sit in a chair. The pain left, entirely, on the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary exactly one year after it started.   I talked to an exorcist friend about it and we compared notes.

Yesterday, Ash Wednesday, my tech started to fight me. I had desktop problems, laptop problems, TV box problems. I was making a podcast and the software I’ve used so many times fought me. The microphone wouldn’t record above a whisper though I adjusted it way up. I worked through these things and got the recording posted. I said Mass in the afternoon, with only a minor audio glitch in the stream at the start. Supper. Then it hit me. The same massive pain over my left scapula and up the side of my skull. During the night it drifted over to the right. I reflected on Paul and the thorn in his side as I asked Mary to put her mantle over me, the angels to defend me and Christ to pour His Precious Blood upon me.

This morning I find that my refrigerator ice maker is not working and that it is not cooling below 40°F.

A connection with the podcasts, maybe?  Some other resolve I made?  I note that the podcasts for Lent began on Shrove Tuesday, which this year 4 March is the Feast of the Holy Face.  Also, recently, with the TMSM society I’m still involved with I obtain new reliquaries and relics for the chapel where the TLM is celebrated.  No good deed goes unpunished?

I don’t often get very personal in my posts.  Whatever this is, I ask for your prayers.  I’d really like this to stop but I’ve offered the pain for my mother’s healing.

And I still don’t understand what’s happening with my amazon affiliate accounts (US and UK).   The links seem to work but I am not showing any sales in my stats.   This is a deep concern.

It feels like an all out attack.

(excerpts from Matthew Plese via 1P5, link at the end)

“Lent, founded upon the three pillars of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving is the primary season of penance in the year and must be observed with the greatest strictness for the love of God who instituted this season for our healing. Due to the primordial importance of Lent, over time, the history and customs of observed prayers, fasting and abstinence, and almsgiving have formed a definitive part of annual Catholic life. This Lent, adopt some of these – especially the fasting principles – which our forefathers in the Faith gladly observed.

“Lenten fasting is a cornerstone of Lent and rediscovering true Catholic fasting for Lent is necessary to resurrect Christendom. The Lenten fast began under the Apostles themselves and was practiced in various forms. St. Augustine in the fourth century remarked, “Our fast at any other time is voluntary; but during Lent, we sin if we do not fast.” At the time of St. Gregory the Great at the beginning of the 7th century, the fast was universally established to begin on what we know as Ash Wednesday. While the name “Ash Wednesday” was not given to the day until Pope Urban II in 1099, the day was known as the “Beginning of the Fast.”

“For more information on how the Lenten fast quickly deteriorated even more in the 1900s, see the article Fasting in the 1900s Pre-Vatican II.

…

“Lent also has a focus on prayer and this thankfully is still seen by the many Catholics who gladly continue to pray the Stations of the Cross each Friday of Lent, which has indulgences attached to them for those who meet the conditions. In addition to this practice, praying the indulged prayer to the Cross each Friday in Lent should be something more Catholics rediscover. Additionally, each day of Lent has a special stational church in Rome. These churches often have a connection to the Traditional Mass readings and prayers of that day – especially for catechumens – and reading about the daily stational churches is a worthwhile practice this Lent. Similarly, we would be remiss if we did not try to attend Holy Mass more often during this sacred season and, even for those days we cannot attend, read the prayers of the Missal since everyday of Lent has a proper Mass…

…

“Almsgiving refers to giving to the poor. By giving to the poor, we make reparation for sins as we see in the poor the person of Christ Himself. Though, while not strictly almsgiving, the giving of our time to visit the sick, the elderly, or those in prison also makes reparation for sin. Our Lord at the End of Times will judge everyone, and He will judge us against the works of mercy. Everyone will be judged against them.

“May the restoration in our own lives this Lent of increased prayer, fasting, and almsgiving be for the glory of God and the glory of Christendom.”
