A second sexual abuse lawsuit is expected to be filed late this afternoon against former Lockeford priest Michael Kelly.
Orange County attorneys John Manly and Vince Finaldi are holding a news conference Wednesday morning in Stockton to announce details of the lawsuit, whose victim is identified only as “John CC Doe.”
In addition to Kelly, the Stockton Diocese, diocese Bishop Stephen Blaire and Monsignor Richard Ryan are named in the lawsuit, Finaldi said in a media advisory.
The suit alleges that Kelly sexually assaulted a boy in the early 2000s in San Andreas. The plaintiff, now 24, attended St. Andrew Parish in San Andreas at the time. Kelly was then a priest at the Calaveras County parish.
