And the bodies just keep falling.
In the wake of the revelation about Fr. Michael Fugee’s involvement in a church youth group after having signed an agreement with the Bergen County Prosecutor’s office not to have any contact with minors at all, some others involved with the priest have all agreed to step down from their positions, along with the priest himself.
Michael and Amy Lenehan of St. Mary’s of Colt’s Neck, who are longtime friends with the priest, were the group leaders who invited Fugee on several trips with the youth group to Canada.
According to this,
(the Archbishop’s spokesperson, Jim) Goodness said the Lenehans and the church’s pastor, the Rev. Thomas Triggs, (of St. Mary’s in Colt’s Neck) knew the terms of Fugee’s agreement with the prosecutor’s office and monitored him accordingly.
All three have left their positions.
And where is the Archbishop in all of this you ask?
