In emotional and personal testimony, an ex-Justice official who quit over the handling of a voter intimidation case against the New Black Panther Party

accused his former employer of instructing attorneys in the civil rights division to ignore cases that involve black defendants and white victims. 

J. Christian Adams, testifying Tuesday before the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights

, said that "over and over and over again," the department showed "hostility" toward those cases. He described the Black Panther case as one example of that -- he defended the legitimacy of the suit and said his "blood boiled" when he heard a Justice official claim the case wasn't solid.

Priests Do it Too

Connecticut Priest Stole Church Money for Male Escorts
As his congregants continued to tithe, the Rev. Kevin Gray of the Sacret Heart Church in Waterbury, Conn., pulled money from his church's coffers to pay for a secret double life. Gray's annual salary of $27,000 could not cover his lavish lifestyle. The 64-year-old priest has been charged with stealing nearly $1.3 million over the course of seven years to pay for restaurants, vacations, hotels, an apartment in New York City, clothes, and male escorts, according to Capt. Chris Corbett of the Waterbury Police Department. An affidavit obtained by a CNN affiliate shows that, between June 2003 and March 2010, Gray "spent about $205,000 at high-end restaurants, $132,000 in hotel stays and $85,000 at clothing stores." Gray also allegedly allowed a number of male escorts to have credit cards in their name attached to his account. One escort, who told police he met Gray in Central Park, had his Harvard University tuition covered. When he questioned the checks coming from Sacred Heart Church, the escort was told that Gray kept his life savings, earned as a big-shot attorney, in the church account. "Gray became very bitter with the church starting in 2001 when he was transferred to a parish in New Hartford while his mother was dying in New Haven," according to the affidavit. "Mr. Gray stated that when he started in 2003, he began taking the money because he felt the Church owed it to him."
