Father Joe Weitensteiner

SPOKANE, Wash. – The man known as Father Joe is back at being a priest in the Catholic Diocese of Spokane.

Spokane's acting Head of the Diocese said Father Joe Weitensteiner is being reinstated in the church.

Father Joe was the former Director of Morning Star Boys Ranch. He was previously suspended and accused several times of sexually abusing young boys.

A trial cleared him a few years ago. A recent investigation by the diocese also cleared him.
