Bishop Robert Finn has reinstated a priest within the Catholic Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph following an investigation by an independent review board.
The priest was suspended last month after unspecified allegations were made. It was the first such case since the office of ombudsman was created last summer in the wake of a church sex abuse scandal.
In a prepared statement Sunday, Finn praised the process.
