Investigation into Omaha priest moves forward

OMAHA (NE)

The Archdiocese of Omaha says two canon lawyers will help Archbishop George Lucas determine whether a priest is guilty of sexually abusing a minor.

The archbishop received a complaint in December 2011 that Alfred J. Salanitro, 53, sexually abused a minor between 1991 and 1994.

While Salanitro denied the accusation, the archdiocese said that Lucas found the complaint “carried with it semblance of truth.”
