ST. LOUIS (KSDK) – A judge has dismissed charges against a St. Louis priest in relation to child endangerment.
Circuit Judge Chris Kunza Mennemeyer dismissed charges against Fr. Joseph Jiang, who pleaded not guilty to the child endangerment charge.
A lawsuit filed by the family of a teenage girl remains active, and it claims that Archbishop Robert Carlson didn’t stop the molestation by a priest who lived in the St. Louis Cathedral Basilica. A motion was made earlier this month to dismiss the lawsuit, and it’s still under consideration.
