		His last major function before resigning the pastoral governance of the archdiocese of Paris due to the age limit was to serve as the special papal envoy to commemoration of the 60th anniversary of the concentration camp at Auschwitz-Birkenau.

	Priest was a potential witness - The Boston Globe
		A close associate, housemate, business partner, and confidant of Shanley's for decades, White was a potential witness in both the criminal and civil cases involving the priest, who is alleged to be one of the most egregious abusers in the scandal involving Boston clergy, said Roderick MacLeish Jr.
		MacLeish is a lawyer for the Boston firm Greenberg Traurig, which represented hundreds of alleged clergy sexual abuse victims in claims against the Archdiocese of Boston.
		Because he was so close to Shanley, who is free on bail awaiting trial on multiple counts of child rape in Middlesex County and whose alleged abuse is the subject of several civil cases expected to go to trial this year, White may have been the most tantalizing potential witness against the priest, MacLeish said.
