The Sault Star
By Mike Verdone The Sault Star
Legal action against Father William Hodgson (Hod) Marshall — a former St. Mary’s College principal in Sault Ste. Marie from 1980-85 — began 10 years ago when a 46-year-old man filed suit in a Sudbury courtroom.
Nineteen people have come forward in Sudbury, Windsor, Toronto and Saskatoon since then, and Marshall has pleaded guilty to 17 charges of indecent assault.
He was sentenced in June 2011 to two years in prison, which he is serving in Kingston Penitentiary.
No victims are known to have come forward in the Sault.
