CHICAGO - Lawyers for five men who have accused a prominent Jesuit priest of molesting them as minors announced Monday that at least 10 families have come forward with similar allegations over the last five decades, including five who are not named in any criminal or civil complaints.

Correspondence between families and Jesuit leaders, released by lawyers Monday, appears to reveal a trail of allegations against Rev. Donald McGuire dating to 1969. McGuire, 77, was convicted last year in Wisconsin of molesting two boys in the 1960s. A 21-year-old man filed suit in August alleging abuse from 1999 to 2003.

Last week two brothers from Arizona sued, saying the priest had abused them as children from 1988 to 2002.
