2 I The Behrend Beacon ROCCALUMERA, Italy: A Catholic nun was arrested Monday after attempting to set fire to her priest’s home and storming him with a machete when she caught him in a compromising position with another woman. Sister Silvia Gomes De Sousa, 39, was the secret lover and housecleaner of the 70-year old Father Carmelo. She returned to his house to find him in bed with another, married, woman, and said that she “saw red.” Sister Sousa’s first act of revenge was to set fire to Father Carmelo’s home by setting candles and lit matches on his rugs and next to the walls. She then brandished a machete and threat ened to kill him before being restrained by concerned bystanders. "I just flipped when I came to the house and caught him in bed with another woman who is married,” Sister Sousa told a court panel. ''We had been together four years and I had even had two abortions because of him." Sister Sousa has since been released on bail, and the whole event has turned into an Italian media frenzy.
