Another woman has come forward, saying she was abused by defrocked priest Oliver O'Grady from 1991 to 1992, when he served in the St. Andrew's parish in San Andreas, according to the SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests.

The woman, now 51, is identified in court papers as "Jane Doe 51." She said she was sexually abused by O'Grady when she was 11 and 12. She says the diocese covered up the crimes and has filed suit against it.

O'Grady, convicted of molesting two boys from Turlock, served seven years of a 14-year sentence before being deported his native Ireland. He is serving time in a prison there, having been convicted of child pornography charges.
