Rocheter, N.Y. —
The Roman Catholic Diocese of Rochester has released the names of priests who have been removed from public ministry over the last decade for credible claims of sexual abuse of minors.
In addition to the names of the nearly two dozen offenders, the list summarizes the final dispositions of all claims resolved since the church established comprehensive procedures for addressing sexual abuse allegations in 2002.
“No priest who has harmed a minor remains in public ministry,” the diocese said in a statement.
The diocese said will update the list if new, credible allegations of abuse are presented.
