A Catholic priest has been removed from public ministry after a board determined that sexual misconduct allegations against him have substance, the Archdiocese of Detroit said today.
The allegations were forwarded to the Wayne County Prosecutor’s office, said Joe Kohn, spokesman for the Archdiocese.
Rev. Louis Granpre, 79, a senior retired priest with the Archdiocese of Detroit, is now prevented from serving as a priest or presenting himself as a priest, said Kohn.
“The Archdiocesan Review Board has deemed the allegation substantive,” said the Archdiocese of Detroit in a statement today.
