MORRISTOWN — Twin brothers filed a lawsuit on Tuesday alleging that they were abused by monks when they were children living at the prestigious Delbarton School, where their father was a longtime teacher and an assistant headmaster.
Bill and Tom Crane filed a lawsuit against Delbarton and St. Mary’s Abbey, which runs the school, and then held a press conference at the front of the courthouse where they were accompanied by their attorney and victims’ advocates. The suit alleges that the Rev. Luke Travers, a former headmaster, abused Tom Crane while the Rev. Justin Capato abused both.
Gerard Hanlon, an attorney representing Travers, said on Tuesday that his client “denies any inappropriate conduct.” An attorney representing Capato was not available for comment.
