    Correction: LC founder Maciel died in Houston, TX

    In my original post for this story, I cited anonymous claims that Legionaries of Christ founder Marcial Maciel died in Naples, Florida. Such is not the case, as the AP reports:
    The founder of 1 of the fastest-growing Catholic religious orders, who was disciplined because of sex abuse allegations, has died in Houston.

    Mexican priest Marcial Maciel ... died yesterday [Jan. 30] of natural causes.

    He was 87.

    Details come from his order, the conservative Legionaries of Christ.

    Officials say Maciel died where he lived in a group home with other Legionaries priests.
    Apologies for the earlier mis-identification. That post will also now be revised.
