A source close to Euteneuer, speaking on the condition of anonymity, told me (Tom O' Toole) that "Father Tom is, sad to say, in a serious situation of his own doing and may not be returning to public ministry".http://www.renewamerica.com/columns/otoole/110114

I know little about this priest, so my comments are in general. I have always had reservations about priests who become ‘famous’ or ‘media figures’. Frequently it ends up badly. There is something about the ‘limelight’ that detracts from the priestly life. It takes great humility and discipline not to let yourself be sidetracked by the adulation of the crowd or media attention.
Padre Pio - arguably one of the ‘best known’ priests in our lifetime (well, mine anyway…) - shunned publicity and was known for his humility, even accepting restrictions on his ministry based on false accusations.
That said, as Fr. Euteneuer is noted as an exorcist, the Devil may have a hand in this. It is said the Devil targets priests in particular. All the more so then, one who casts out demons...
One suspects that prayer for him is the best (and near ONLY) remedy.
