Members of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests were walking around downtown Los Gatos at noon Wednesday alerting the community that Brother “Bill” William Farrington, who resides at the Sacred Heart Jesuit Center, has been named as a credible molester of children in Northern California.
Joey Piscitelli, Northern California director of SNAP, stood at the intersection of College Avenue and E. Main Street with fliers in his hand that read, “Protect your children. Accused sex offender Catholic priest!”
“We’re trying to alert the town of Los Gatos that there’s an alleged serial sexual predator that’s been roaming around unsupervised,” Piscitelli said, after Channel 4 had interviewed him about the recent outing of the former religious brother who’s been accused of sexual wrongdoing while working at Catholic schools.
Piscitelly said the Jesuit High School authorities in Carmichael and Los Gatos Jesuit Center officials released statements Tuesday to the public that’s he’s alleged to have molested children. At least one former Bellarmine College Preparatory student in San Jose and another at the Catholic school near Sacramento have come forward alleging Farrington molested them, Piscitelly said.
