SYRACUSE, N.Y. (WSYR-TV)
Allegations of sex abuse leveled against Father Paul Angelicchio are ‘not credible,” according to a diocesan review board.
The Syracuse Diocese says the priest will return to active ministry.
The alleged incident involving a minor would have taken place 27 years ago.
Onondaga County District Attorney Bill Fitzpatrick has already said that the claims were not substantial.
The diocese noted:
[Fitzpatrick] added that he found nothing to back up the claim- no physical evidence, no crime, and no corroborating witness. Fitzpatrick said his office determined Angelicchio “was not a clear and present danger to any minors.”
