A ROMAN Catholic nun has testified that she and two relatives were sexually abused by the same priest when they were children.

The testimony is the latest in the landmark trial of a Philadelphia Archdiocese official charged with child endangerment for allegedly leaving abusive priests in ministry.

The nun said all three went to the archdiocese in 1991 to ask monsignors James Malloy and William Lynn of the Office for Clergy that the priest be removed.

She said she felt "misled" because the priest was put on leave but allowed to say Mass elsewhere.

Monsignor Lynn is now on trial. Malloy has died.
