	Survivors of Priest Abuse Calling for Investigation of Bishop Connecticut Post December 15, 2009 http://www.connpost.com/ci_13997710 A support group for survivors of priest abuse is asking for an investigation into Bishop William E. Lori's handling of sexual abuse claims against two practicing priests, according to a report in the Hartford Courant. "We are writing you today to express our concern that two Bridgeport priests -- Monsignor William Genuario and Monsignor Frank Wissel -- are still active in the ministry, after two allegations against each have been brought to the attention of the Diocese of Bridgeport," said a letter from Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests, as quoted by the Courant. Genuario is a member of the Diocesan Tribunal which handles such things as annulments, but he was the vicar general, second in command to then-Bishop Walter Curtis, when the abuse allegedly took place. Wissel is the pastor at St. Mary Parish in Greenwich.
