From USA Today:
WASHINGTON — The commander of the Marines’ famed base at Quantico, Va., stormed the altar after Catholic mass in January at the base chapel and confronted the choir director with an “I will kill you face,” according to interviews and documents obtained by USA TODAY.
The actions by Col. Joseph Murray on Jan. 14, 2018 — and another incident in October in which Murray sent Marine criminal investigators to interrogate a contract priest at his off-base home about a roster of parishioners — sparked internal investigations by the Marines. Choir director Marie DeSilva believes a remark she made about the priest that day touched off Murray’s temper. An inspector general’s inquiry found merit in DeSilva’s complaint that Murray had intimidated her when he confronted her in a rage but could not determine if he had broken the law. The Marines also found “no probable cause supporting any misconduct” by Murray or the investigators in the case of Father Kieran Mandato, according to a Marine Corps spokesman.
