	Second Lawsuit Accuses Santa Rosa Diocese in Child Molest By Guy Kovner Press Democrat August 26 2010 http://www.pressdemocrat.com/apps/pbcs.dll/error A second Humboldt County man has sued the Santa Rosa Catholic Diocese alleging he was repeatedly molested in the 1980s by a former Irish priest who had been designated as a pedophile. The suit, filed Thursday in Sonoma County Superior Court, accuses the diocese of negligence and fraud for hiring the Rev. Patrick Joseph McCabe and failing to disclose his misconduct to parishioners in Eureka. The alleged victim is a 38-year-old Humboldt County man who served as an altar boy at St. Bernard Church, where McCabe was assigned to serve by former Santa Rosa Bishop Mark Hurley, who died in 2001.
