As a born-Catholic person I think that they hesitated because the priest is a high authority person and they also were probably questioning what exactly was happening here.
Disgraceful. That priest needs to be retired.
The onlookers are probably beating themselves up for not acting sooner and I have compassion for them under the circumstances.

I saw enough to know the old priest was well past his sell-by date and knew what was coming.
Time for Father to go to a monastery and devote his life to prayer and contemplation.
