Talk:Thomas Sidney Dixon

"Thank goodness Stuart was not a Catholic"
The article says in a footnote: "Father Dixon was later to comment: Thank goodness Stuart was not a Catholic. If he had been, Stuart denying the murder would have been regarded as a confession and Dixon would not have been able to mention his doubts over Stuart's guilt with anyone. The church holds that the seal of confession would be inviolable even with Stuart's life at stake." I have marked this as dubious because it does not make sense. How can it be a confession to deny committing a murder? Also the statement is unreferenced; and googling it only turns up pages which have copied this Wikipedia article.
