Liles’ modus operandi was said to have been to treat the boys to dinners, movies and miniature golf, and to ply them with alcohol. His accusers said they were also sexually abused by Dominican Brother Edmund Frost, who “tag-teamed” with Liles. Both Dominicans resided at the Minneapolis parish where the abuse is said to have taken place. Liles is deceased.
