Priest from my old archdiocese murdered in the rectory

In the archdiocese of Omaha, where I attended Mass from 2012-2018 (not this particular church, the archdiocese, which encompasses most of Northeastern Nebraska)

When I was attending there, the archbishop's name was George Lucas, whom I've met, and I thought it was funny name for bishop. I don't know if Archbishop is still there or if he has been replaced.

+Lucas is still there, although he's very near retirement age.

I've met the bishop of every diocese I've ever lived in except Orlando, I wasn't there long enough for him to visit my parish

Strange connection to financial issues in past

Yup, that might be the motive, if it turns out to have been intentional and not just an attempted burglary gone wrong
