***** CORRECTION 11 FEBRUARY 2014 *****
It was brought to our attention by a reader that it wasn't the incorrupt body of St. John Bosco inside the casket traveling to over 130 churches around the world but inside was the right hand of St. John Bosco. The same hand which had blessed many countless children. We apologize to our readers for this mistake. A Big thanks to Heime H. for pointing this out and sending this article.
So what did they do, chop his hand off just so it would be easier to send on tour? How morbid.
