NEW YORK -- The leader of a New York City church where pop star Sabrina Carpenter filmed provocative scenes for a music video was stripped of his duties Monday after church officials said an investigation revealed other instances of mismanagement.
Monsignor Jamie Gigantiello was relieved of “any pastoral oversight or governance role” at his church located in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, Bishop Robert Brennan said in a statement issued by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn.
An investigation launched after the video revealed that Gigantiello made unauthorized financial transfers to a former top aide in New York City Mayor Eric Adams' administration, which is being investigated on charges of corruption, Brennan said.
“I am saddened to share that investigations conducted by Alvarez & Marsal and Sullivan & Cromwell LLP have uncovered evidence of serious violations of Diocesan policies and protocols at Our Lady of Mount Carmel – Annunciation Parish,” the bishop said. “In order to safeguard the public trust, and to protect church funds, I have appointed Bishop Witold Mroziewski as administrator of the Parish.”
Gigantiello's administrative powers were taken away after Carpenter’s video for her hit song “Feather” sparked criticism last November. 🤣🤣🤣

Remember #Block can never be a complete #btc company because it has shareholders. He has spoken of this before. While the idea is good … there are other ways to do it & make it more equitable. If I’m being honest this is already planned in another way for future … if ℹ am seeing it from the view he does.
Not for you. When will people understand that just because something doesn’t apply to **them** it doesn’t negate the existence nor need for it for others?
You feel that’s an attack? Woof … apologies
Forgot I’m dealing with people who aren’t used to being told things so bottom line up front.
Reminder: Whitney: you must coddle everyone because they aren’t used to women speaking with such authority. 🤣🤣🤣
So is mine … neither he nor I will ever submit. It’s what it is.
He’s too fucking stubborn and so am I.
Let it burn to nothing
He knows where I live if he wants me

No longer have any … everything is just as it’s always been. Meaningless. We live on Earth repeatedly trying to do better.

Exhausting.
Can’t wait to go offline for a long long while. Again.
